Below is a photo of the awesome 11x17 Goose Island Bourbon County 2013 release poster that I just brought home and hung up. I was given this poster free of charge by one of the fine swill dealers at the liquor store down the street. After seeing it for a couple months every time I walked in the store I just couldn't take it anymore. I needed it! The beer had already come and gone so I figured what the hell and asked for it. He told me if I could get it off the wall without ripping it, then it's mine. A nice, though rather strange gesture. I placed it eye level next to the top shelf of my book collection.
I also got myself four new goblets. Two of them are pictured below and the other two will have to be a surprise. But you can expect some words on these very fine beers sometime soon. The Rochefort goblet is just OK, but that Westmalle glass is a thing of fucking beauty! It's absolutely massive.
Also, on a little bit of a side note... always do the smart thing when you have guests over. Let them use your less treasured glassware. Case in point, This Magic Hat Wacko pint glass... I have lesser favorite pint glasses of course, but this was far from special. I'm not a fan at all of anything Magic Hat, but I did really like the colors on this one.
