I am inordinately fond of Belgian ales (and good US imitations) and British IPAs (not US-types overwhelmed with west coast 4C hops). Give me Kent Goldings.
My best book/story ideas come somewhere between beer number one and beer number two in the evening, although usually extensive re-writing is needed the next morning.
Just made this Onion-Dubbel beer bread (a bottle of North Coast's Brother Thelonious instead of water.) Dark and aromatic.
