Jibidy Hard 2: Jibidy Harder!

Well, Billy found the rest of the crew - that is, most of them. Aren't we missing someone?

Jibidy 89!

I've got the next few pages in the can, so expect a couple more this week.

Tonight: The last Saturday at Dr. Dremo's. A single tear for the last James Brown Ale I may ever have.

Sad News

"The Dr Dremo and Taco Bell property has been sold to Elm St Development. Plans call for 141 residential units and 34,685 sf of ground floor retail.

After 6 years of holding on year by year, Dr Dremo's closing date is final. The developer hopes to receive the last of their construction permits between Feb and Apr '08, with demolition to start immediately after the last permit is obtained. Dr Dremo's will close it's doors at the current location between Feb and Apr '08."

In the meantime, keep heading to Dremo's - it's one of the best bars in the area.

Beer beer beer

Some friends and I discovered (not that it was missing several people tell me) a great wine emporium called Total Wine. They have a gigantic selection of wines and a bunch of locations in VA (some in MD and DE too I think). You can check out their website here.

Anyways, I'm not big wine person, but they sell beer by the singles as well, so I've been able to sample a bunch of different kinds of beers w/o having to pay top dollar at the Brickskellar.

Today's beer: Fix 1864. Apparently it is the traditional beer of Greece (though it is brewed in Wilkes-Barre, PA - that was kind of disappointing). It's a pretty malty lager, overall and ok taste - nothing super special. 3 out of 5 stars.

Previous beers:

Mississippi Mud: A delicious black and tan, and it comes in a really cool bottle (packaging is very important to me. 4 out of 5 stars.

Acme California Brown Ale: another yummy dark beer. 5 out of 5 stars. Rivals Dr Dremos' James Brown Ale. Hit Me!
