Happy Mardi Gras!

Post by Beer-lord »

Possible record breaking heat today and one of the warmest Mardi Gras in history but again, I'm staying put at home and brewing Fat Tuesday Pale.
Tomorrow we start behaving again!

Aw man, I wish Gary would have told us, maybe we couldn't met him somewhere this past weekend for a hoppy beverage.

Hope he's having a good time,

I took off but ended up having to work from home for at least half of the day so, nothing Fat about my Fat tuesday other than my head.
