also...

I don't know if you people have good breweries in your town or what kinds of beer they brew, but even if you do, the Iron Rail IPA from Wedge Brewing here in Asheville kicks its ass.

it is the best beer I've had in a long, long time, citrus and pine and caramel and deep orange/rust color with a long lingering aftertaste of deliciousness, dry hopped and barely bitter...oh mama.

shame you can't get any. I'll drink one of these beauties for you, loser.

holy shit, I can't begin to really describe how fine this beer is; for those who do drink, if you've had Dogfish Head 90 Minute, this beer easily surpasses it in monstrously good flavor.

I think it about it more than is healthy for a tired old writer should...it's only in draft at a variety of places as well as the brewery so I can't even take it home...

Utah is a rather repressed state with antiquated, prohibition-era laws (though most have been overturned lately) where beer with an alcohol content greater than 4% (by volume) has to be sold in state run liquor stores at a jacked up price (can you say 60% sin tax?). however, that all being said, there are quite a few mighty fine microbreweries here and they make some damn good beers. damn good.

maybe when i come visit you in Asheville, i'll get to try this marvelous beer of which you speak. until then, try not to drink it all up!

I have one of those Terrible Horns of Fate and the damn thing keeps malfunctioning.

every fucking night: apocalypse.

it gets boring, really. you should probably invest in a Furious Doom Trumpet; they have a better warranty.
