And I have to say, I really enjoyed it, and highly recommend it, too. Why, you should have a Wet Dream yourself, if you can. Get one, I mean, because they're not sold everywhere. What? You... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490057207428 Sat, 7 Nov 2009 10:57:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490057207428?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_490201452164?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - It was that time again. Given the almost daily use and abuse I put my headphones through, the time to buy a new pair of buds had rolled around again. Lady luck, however, had not been by my side, and the first two suitors for my ears' attention both... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~490201452164 Sun, 1 Nov 2009 10:42:01 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_490201452164?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_488613056132?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - I'm betting more than a few beer fans here in the good old U S of A might be a little surprised when they pour a bottle of Weihenstephaner Festbier into a glass. That's because they won't be seeing the typical orange-amber colored liquid they... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~488613056132 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:27:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_488613056132?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489276935812?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - Let's be clear about one thing: the idea for smoking beers did not come from America's microbrewery revolution. It's actually a style the Germans deserve credit for, since their Rauchbiers (smoked beers) date back hundreds of years. The... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~489276935812 Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:22:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_489276935812?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489435795076?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - Things are looking up for Rhode Island's Narragansett Brewing Company.

Mostly, that's because beer enthusiasts tend to be a fickle lot, always chasing the latest best thing. So, wise brewers have figured out, why not give them more big things to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~488621837956 Fri, 23 Oct 2009 18:52:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_488621837956?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_489112047236?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - Every morning when I awake, there's one thing that motivates me to jump out of bed and prepare to face the busy world for another day: the thought of a fresh, steaming cup of roasty coffee rich with cream and piping hot.

Well, in a way we do. You see, Phil used to brew beer for the New England Brewing Company, and being an old New Englander, I used to drink beer from the New England Brewing Company. To this day I fondly remember their... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~488616922756 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 08:56:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_488616922756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_486984355460?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - You know, sometimes I think I have too much beer on my hands. Well, actually no, that's not the problem. The problem is I have too little time to drink it in, you see. Somehow, I've amassed a backlog of beers to enjoy and write about, and I just can't... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~486984355460 Sat, 17 Oct 2009 10:00:26 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_486984355460?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_486979243652?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - It's that time of year again. The leaves are turning beautiful shades of orange and brown, the days and nights are getting cooler, and everywhere you look people are wearing lederhosen. OK, so the last one might be a bit of a stretch, but all you have to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~486979243652 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 08:10:31 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_486979243652?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_488008158852?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - A few months ago, Colorado's New Belgium Beers made their entrance into the Georgia market.

Two cups are usually required just to get my eyes open and my brain working, then it's off for a jog, home to shower and get ready for work, and out the door with another cup for the morning commute... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~487286541956 Tue, 6 Oct 2009 08:10:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_487286541956?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_487129190020?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - I've been trying for a long time to convince my wife we need to get rid of cable. Or, at the very least, to cut down on the number of channels we get. It's just far too expensive these days, especially when you have to pay for a ton of channels you just... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~487129190020 Sun, 4 Oct 2009 11:59:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_487129190020?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_484651011716?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - It being football season and all, I tend to drink a bit more beer than usual. Don't be alarmed, because as much as I love the stuff, my drinking habits these days are rather moderate. But when I am rooting for my beloved New England Patriots, I like to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~484651011716 Fri, 2 Oct 2009 09:24:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_484651011716?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_486693637764?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - Did somebody let the cat out of the bag too soon? They might have. Here it is, September 29th, and I'm sipping a glass of Bud Light Golden Wheat I bought a few days ago at a local liquor store, which shall go nameless to protect the innocent.

Finding a pair that sounded great but didn't last, I returned them and traded up to a pair that should last a long time-but sound terrible. Normally, I stick with phones in the $30 range or so, and they... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~484267101828 Wed, 16 Sep 2009 08:51:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_484267101828?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_479631543940?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - They say you should never burn your bridges behind you, and I think that's a good idea. And of course, burning bridges ahead of you isn't such a good idea, either; how then will you get where you need to go? But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy burning... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~479631543940 Mon, 14 Sep 2009 09:18:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_479631543940?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_484659924612?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Bruguru - A few weeks ago, I got an e-mail from Boston Beer. I get them all the time, of course, and you can too if you sign up for them on their website. They're a great way to keep up with the latest and newest beers in the Samuel Adams line.
