The Party is over...
Posted Sep 10, 2001
Boy's Weekend is history. 35 bottles of British beer were consumed and 29 bottles returned home. Highlights were the Shepherd's Neame Original Porter, Black Sheep Ale, Old Jock, MacAndrews, and Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout. Lowlights were the Young's Special London Ale(spoiled) and Whibread(now made in Cincinatti, Ohio). The sauna got way too hot and the lake was just cool enough. The trip to the 100 year old slate quarry was great, especially the large water holes on the road that practically swallowed Bob's work truck. A bit rainy but hey, we were drinking British beer so why not have British weather as well?
