android ipad iphone The mobile market never ceases to surprise me. Amidst a sea of heavy in-app-purchase exploitation, pay-to-win games, and clones, there are still a large number of modern classics that brave the choppy waters and come out on top. Tiny Thief is the latest example of this triumph. It knows its roots, it looks unique, and it executes the touch-screen setup flawlessly. It's also extremely adorable. | 07-23-2013 | ||

ipad iphone mac pc ps3 PSVita xbox360 Mine is that I work too hard. If you had any faith that things wouldn't continue to be just awful after the first episode of The Wolf Among Us, why? Things are clearly awful. Things will undoubtedly get more awful. It's the way of the world -- especially neo-noir gritty fairytale worlds. The somewhat tardy episode 2 is 'coming soon.' That's not soon enough. | 10-24-2013 | ||
ipad iphone pc ps3 xbox360 This video contains huge spoilers! You have been warned. The Walking Dead from Telltale won all sorts of praise and awards for their amazing episodic series.

Codecs and Virtualization in Linspire's Software Warehouse
Users can now buy Parallels virtualization software and a package with multimedia codecs by Fluendo from Linspire's Click'n'Run Warehouse (CNR).
These new additions are the practical consequence of the latest corporation entered into by the Linux distributor. The vendor's own distributions, Freespire 2.0 and Linspire 6.0 already have a client for the software warehouse, as do Ubuntu 7.04 and 7.10 thanks to cooperation with Canonical. Linspire advertises CNR as a sales channel for commercial Linux software; it also has a traditional Webshop.
Parallels Workstation 2.2, the virtualization software is now available for around US$ 50. It allows users to run Windows (from 3.1 to Vista), Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Linux as guest operating systems on a Linux machine. Among other things it supports Intel's VT virtualization technology.
The Fluendo Megabundle is a collection of proprietary codecs that allow Linux users to enhance the GStreamer Version 0.10.3 or later multimedia framework. CNR has the package with licensed codes Microsoft's WMA, WMV, ASF and MMS, along with decoders for MPEG4, MP3 and AC3 Divx support for about US$ 40.

Where's Pokey?
RoomPerfect components come with a measurement microphone and set-up is said to take 15 minutes.
The system on demo included the $2500 CD-1 CD transport/player, the TDAI-2200 control amplifier, the $1800 SDA 200Wpc power amplifier, $2600/pair DP-1 dipole loudspeakers, and $1400/each BW-1 woofers. That's woofers, not subwoofers—and the "BW" indicates that they are "boundary woofers," meant to be placed against walls.
I thought the DP-1 looked like Gumby, but the system sounded dynamic and musical. Halfway through the demo, Lyngdorf turned off the RoomPerfect correction and all the magic went away. The bass got tubby and overwhelming and the soundstage flattened, not just perceptably, but drastically.
The Lyngdorf system was impressive-sounding, but I also liked its looks, which admittedly will not please everybody. However, with the woofers against the boundary, they almost disappear and the Gumby-fied DP-1s are pretty unobtrusive. And these days, a complete system for $16,800 almost seems mainstream.

LiLo and Sam Really Do Mean Something
- Michael Wolff
We spend a fair amount of time and space at Newser on the ever-continuing drama of LiLo and Sam's relationship. Behind the scenes at Newser, there is quite often an animated debate about why we're giving LiLo and Sam so much attention. Many of the other over-50 men at Newser (there are two of us) find our interest excessive—but not me.
Or, after months of grousing, I've finally gotten their significance. LiLo and Sam are the first post-gay couple. We're gay-blind to LiLo and Sam. Nothing askance attaches to them. The word lesbian seems hardly ever—even unconsciously—to arise.
Nor do they seem merely part of the movement to turn gay couples invisible by making them as uninteresting and middle class as any other kind of couple. That is, after all, part of the meaning of the gay marriage issue—we're ever so unsexy, too. But those gay couples still look gay—as well as boring.
LiLo and Sam aren't trying to hide in plain sight by being ordinary.

Past and present: balloons of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
Walter Kelleher/NY Daily News Archive via Getty Images
November 27, 2013 7:00 AM
A storm bearing down on the East Coast with a messy mix of snow, rain and wind is threatening to ground giant balloon versions of Snoopy and SpongeBob SquarePants in the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The iconic characters that soar between the Manhattan skyscrapers every year may not lift off Thursday if sustained winds exceed 23 mph and gusts exceed 34 mph, according to city rules enacted after fierce winds in 1997 caused a Cat in the Hat balloon to topple a light pole and seriously injure a woman spectator.

Arrived early to Blue Palms to watch the cask of this get put on - a large burst of carbonation was released when Brian drove a corkscrew into the shive (or whatever it is called) - a good sign. Served after sitting for 20 minutes (after about a pitcher of watery foam was poured off) in a 20oz nonic - mine was the very first of the evening!
This was an angry, laborious, frothing pint - a cautious hand pumping still took two glasses and several minutes (the barkeep certainly earned his tip this evening) to finally serve up a proper pour. Remarkable appearance - lacing initially even coated the OUTSIDE of the glass...opaque lemoncello colored body with two fingers of permanent dense creamy shock-white foam. Swirling leaves an avalanche of lacing, like rapidly melting snow...
The aroma grew in intensity as the glass made its way down the bar - it was more intense than many IPAs I've had even from several feet away. Pushed up to my nose, it is a perfect balance of hops and grain - floral and unique.
The rye is subtle but works exceptionally well against the hops. It serves as a spicy foil to the singular grassy blast of pine, citrus, and pepper that the hops embody (they are all of these things yet none of these things). What a uniquely savory brew (I almost get notes of cheddar - and not in a bad way!) - grapefruit and lemon zest, pomelo, fennel, orangsicles, custard, white pepper, persimmon, mango - one could go on...and yet everything is very mild and well integrated into a whole. Quite different and tasty...
Thick, creamy, yet still light bodied, the mouthfeel would be perfect except for a slight chalkiness - a large amount of sediment rests on the bottom of the glass when it is nearly empty - excellent if you enjoy unfiltered brews.
Slightly spicy finish, with lots of fruit on the palate - on cask this is right up there with Sculpin for me in terms of drinkability.
Very well done and luciously fresh - don't miss it if you get the chance to sample this beer in this modality....

This is my second Alpine beer, Pure Hopiness being the first. PH was very good. Let's see if Nelson lives up to the hype. Thanks to Sebowski for the trade.
A: Surprisingly very light looking. Yellow, slightly hazy. Lacing covers the glass. Good head retention. Almost looks like Hop Ranch.
S: Big grapefruit, citrus and guava. Very nice caramel malt base. Quite amazing.
T: Taste follows the aroma. Very big hop profile but it does not overpower the beer. Very balanced beer. This satisfied my hop thirst on every single level.
M: Light to medium bodied. Perfect carbonation and bitterness.
O: After having the pleasure of trying so many delicious, wonderful IPA's in the past few weeks (Gandhi-Bot, PtE, PH, Jai Alai, Schlafly Tasmanian IPA, Sea Hag, Hopslam, etc, etc, etc.), Nelson definitely got my attention. Wonderful beer by Alpine. Glad to have acquired this since I failed at making it to the brewery when I was out in SD. Thanks again to Sebowski.

Poured from bottle into chilled pint glass. Surprisingly light yellow/orange color (thought it might be more cloudy & orange, based on smell). Relatively thin fluffy white head, which dissipated somewhat quickly. Lots of tiny bubbles, and good/sticky/even lacing throughout the quaff. On the nose, strong pine dominates over grapefruit/orange citrus notes. There is a distinct dankiness to the nose, which becomes all the more prominent upon first sip. As the beer settles and warms, the beer becomes more hoppy/piney/dank and less floral/citrusy on the palette, which is fine by me (that's how I like them, although a little more balance would be preferred here). Mouthfeel is full and coating. Alcohol burn is subdued until final points of the finish. All in all, I liked this very much. A very good example of West Coast style (reminds me a little of Sucks in that regard). Duet is better, but Nelson is a close second. Nice work, Alpine!

Nelson, to me, is easily one of the best IPA's I've ever had. I'm a big hop head who loves hop-forward beers. Not only is this beer incredibly well balanced, its fruity characteristics give it that respectable nudge into the elites.
If something terribly wrong occurred where one could only choose one brewery to drink from... Alpine would be the one.

This beer looks stunning, like liquid sunshine in the glass. The nose is sumptuous with Sticky citrus notes of tangerine and grapefruit. The rye adds a dry backbone that is perfect complement to the juicy, tropical sweetness of the hops. This beer is perfectly integrated and balanced. As good as IPAs get. This is a treat.

Review #400... and man a good one to review...
A- Beautiful . Hazy golden color. Nice head... great soapy lacing..
S- Simply put- the best hoppy beer I ever smelt... maybee it just tickled "my" fancy more than others..candied orange and mango, pineapple and guava. .. I can't even describe how damn good this beer smelled... there was something else in the smell that's hard to describe but simply when you smell it you smile... outstanding...
T-now my expectations are high and it did not disappoint....everything described In the smell is in the taste with a beautiful balancing showcase and nothing is too overwhelming but meshed together perfectly... bitterness and hops were present but again, nothing singled out another..
M-smooth and medium to light bodied with a great juicy aftertaste that begged you to keep sipping...
O- Best IPA out!...I swear by lunch (which is still world class imo):but damn you grze for getting me hooked on this beer...I drank it in a matter of 10 min. And that's pretty rare for me by myself.. but all I wanted was more... there is nothing left to say... you have to try this beer....

look: 3.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25
Appearance: Pours a somewhat hazy straw color, with about 1/2" of white head that has decent retention and lacing. Not a bad looking beer, but it does not have quite the clarity that I have seen in other Alpine IPAs.
Smell: Light pale malt scents are evident, but that is quickly overshadowed by pungent tropical fruit dankness. Very nice.
Taste: Mirrors the smell. Nice, light malt backbone which adds a bit of sweetness but not too much. Then comes the hop flavors. Tropical fruit flavors shine, namely pineapple and mango. Very little bitterness, almost exclusively tropical fruit and dankness.
Mouthfeel/Overall: The beer has a light body with moderate carbonation, which is about right. Overall, the Nelson hops really shine in this beer. I love tropical fruit notes and limited bitterness in my IPAs, so I was a fan.

The color comes in a surprisingly bright hazy lemon yellow with a 2 finger white fluffy head. Almost looks like a wheat ale because of the haziness and yellow, almost like yellow Gatorade color.
The aroma has pungent juicy sweet grapefruit, orange, tangerine. A nice bready malt in there as well. Some mango and pineapple.
One could write paragraphs and paragraphs about this beer because of the complexity of flavors. The flavor follow with some bright floral, sweet melon, honey dew, sweet grapefruit. Then moves onto a hint of spicy rye, white pepper. Then a honey sweetness and lightly toasted bready malt. The finish has grassiness, astringent grapefruit pith, a bit of pine and resin. Mostly drying and some bitterness. There's a theme of white wine character with the sweetness.
The general theme of this beer is a hoppy grapefruit bomb with a gentle bready malt, light body, and fresh flavors throughout. Certainly one of the best IPAs I've had.

Misc.: N/A
Poured a golden, straw, hazy color with one finger of off-white head. Good amount of sporadic spiderweb lacing on the sides of the glass. Average-to-above average retention.
Smelled grapefruit, pine, orange rind, citrus hops, floral hops, spices and resin hops.
Tasted grapefruit and initially it reminded me of a toned down Pliny the Elder. Pine, resin, citrus, orange rind, tangerine and light caramel malts, all in a pretty bitter form.
Light body. Oily-to-creamy texture. Lively carbonation. Long, bitter, citrusy finish.
This beer lived up to the hype. Just fantastic.

Doopie brought out a Nelson, Duet and a Pure Hoppiness a while back. Cheers man!
From a bomber into a snifter.
APPEARANCE: Pours a two finger, medium looking, fluffy, white head with good retention. Slightly cloudy amber yellow with some carbonation evident. Slowly fades to a healthy wisp and clings to the sides. Slight wisp and ring remain, leaving some very nice lacing down the glass. Similar to Duet but definitely lighter in color.
SMELL: Similar nose as well. Pale malts, light butterscotch, with honeydew melon and lots of grapefruits instead of the apricots in Duet. Piles of pine as well. Very piney. Bold and very enticing.
TASTE: Pale malts and honeydew melon up front, with some citrus, lots of grapefruit and piles of pine flavors at the swallow. Some buttery notes, butterscotch through the middle, into a piney and bitter finish. Bold and lingering finish of grassy pine, grapefruit bitterness and some sweet melon notes. Great stuff.
PALATE: Medium body and carbonation. Creamy enough, though a touch less than Duet, goes down nice and finishes very dry on the palate. Full and creamy enough, but a little too dry of a finish perhaps.
Really enjoyed this one, as I did all the Alpine hop bombs we had that afternoon. Perhaps my favorite all-around IPA brewer in the USA. Compared to Duet, this one was lighter in color and had more pine and grapefruit as opposed to apricot. Both are world class, however. Thanks again Doopie. Recommended.

4.38/5 rDev -1.6%
look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Appearance- Received with about half a finger's worth of head. The head is a pure cotton white while the body is a pale amber which appears as a dull straw when held up to the light. Head dissipates rather quickly. Lacing is minimal.
Nose- Lots of citrus, mostly orange and lemon. Some tropical fruits, mainly mangoes. Some peach. Not much else in the way of other IPA aromatics. No real pine or resin. Swirling reveals some caramel and matchstick.
Taste- Starts off with the fruit of the nose and runs with it. There is definite peach and other stone fruits which taste a little green. Some orange and lemon followed by a nice bit of spice from the rye. Definitely a welcome change from the typical pine and resin back of most IPAs. Light melon, light pine and resin on the finish. Seems like it will be a very tasty beer once it warms up a little bit. Some mustiness, even a little bit of musk that pairs with the melon aspects. Pepper, some pumpernickel or rye bread. Grain notes. A tiny bit of earwax on the finish. Definitely a really good beer but I don't know if it deserves its high ranking. It is growing on me as I continue to drink it. Some notes of caramel and honey. Some floral qualities as well. Some tendency to savory notes. Really good to great at this points. Some grapefruit, tropical fruits (papaya and mango). Alpine really has IPAs on lockdown.
Mouthfeel- Between light and medium bodied with a healthy dose of carbonation. At the moment it's a bit much for me but maybe it will mellow out.
Drinkability- Very subtle but has tons of complexity. Seems to more of a Pliny the Elder type of IPA. Six bucks for a pint of a beer that doesn't come to Oregon seems reasonable.
Overall- Really good to great beer that owes a lot to its mix of subtlety and complexity. Lovely use of rye to create a malt bill which not only contrasts the fruitness of the hops but interacts with it. Pretty much a great beer. Definitely worth a try. Very accessible IPA.

Happy to have tried this beer. Pour was nice and clean with a golden orange color. Smell was hop forward with some citrus orange and grapefruit. Taste was like the smell but lacking a little on the citrus flavors, nice and bitter with good carbonation. Mouthfeel was smooth but not something that left me craving more with each swig. After drinking this side by side with Duet, I felt like this was a bit lacking. All in all, great beer from Alpine and will likely try it again if I get the chance.

This beer poured a delicate and brilliant gold with a faint orange hue when held to the light in the room. When held to natural light it is all golden yellow and with a faint greenish presence. Head is cottony, white, and fell slowly leaving spectacular and decorative lace.
The nose on this is delicate and floral. Bright citrus zest. It's grassy and has a bit of spicy rye. The malt is almost invisible on the nose except for a light clover honey. It has the scent of grape must on it. A sweet white grape with an earthy musk. As it warms it has a wine like nose that is deep and rich without any real heaviness or sugar on it. There's a bit of pineapple but it's very light. Sunny orange is lightly throughout but nothing you can pinpoint. It's ethereal this nose.
The taste is stellar. Impeccable clarity in the palate. It has the sweet presence of the white wine grape, with it's earth and instead of any acidity this beer offers a hop pungency and a tad bitter. The body of the beer is fantastically light. It is as light as water. The malt is but a breath underneath and you don't smell it or taste it but it has to be there. The rye gives it a bit of spice and a bit of an edge. Then that spice tickles the back of the throat as much as the delicate carbonation and that's how smooth it is. The light orange juicy quality of the fruit gives it a sweetness that's not overplayed to sugar. There is grapefruit but it's so delicate as to simply be a mouthwatering pleasure.
This beer is stellar. It's approach to the palate is lightness and grace. it dares you to taste it it's so light and then it hits you with an epic hop character that has every taste and aspect of hops. From grass, to a light herbal spice, juicy fruits, to a dry white wine like finesse. This finishes lightly dry and with much aplomb. Sublime.
Thanks Jay O'Rear.

Bottle in trade from a generous dude. Thanks! Pours a beautifully clear light golden color with big fluffy white two finger head. Massive aromatics coming from this, with grapefruits, sweet honey, flowers, more citrus, some creamy sweet wine like aroma as well. Not like anything I have smelled. Flavor begins with a light sweetness on the tongue, and explodes into raw hops, grassy, grapefruit, honey, melons. A nice bitter pine on the way down. The flavor has a pleasant creamy mouthfeel, with sweet honey and big juicy hops. So light on the palate, with medium high carbonation. Up there with the best of them, especially in the single IPA category.

Huge thanks to drbenzo for this one
A: Pours a hazy yellow/orange color with about 1-2 fingers of white foamy head. Leaves nice lacing throughout the glass.
S: Grapefruit, Tangerine, Orange, mango, slight lemon quality. Some herbal spice and breadiness comes through. Really great aroma.
T: Wow! Big juice flavor. Same fruit flavors as on the nose, A little peach also that I did not pick up on in the smell. Nice hop bitterness is also present. Picking up a nice slight spice flavor that turns to a breadiness at the back end. Superb.
M: Nice medium body. Carbonation that is not too much, nor too little - just right. Has a dry finish to it that is really nice.
O: Again, huge thanks to drbenzo. He also sent me Duet and Pure Hoppiness. Of the 3, this is hands down my favorite. One of the best IPA's I've had. Since getting this bottle I have actively pursued more bottles. Outstanding. Seek this one out - you will not be let down.

Appearance: Light hazy orange color with some yellow as well. Good lacing. Small head hangs around.
Aroma: Just wonderful. Lots of citrus with some spicy rye character. Grassy notes as well with hints of white wine fruitiness and grapefruit. Very big aroma and everything works together perfectly.
Taste: The rye spice manifests itself quickly along with some of that same grassy character. Hints of tropical fruit and lots of grapefruit/citric peel flavors. The malt is light but the rye spice seems to tie everything together. Bitterness is assertive, but the beer remains super drinkable.
Mouthfeel: Carbonation seems slightly lower than most IPAs, though the beer is still well-carbed. Finishes dry with a lingering citrus peel bitterness and hints of stonefruit. This slightly diminished carbonation and medium body leads to a mouthfeel that borders on creamy at times.
Overall: More or less a toss-up between this and Hill Farmstead Susan as my favorite American IPA. The aroma almost keeps me from drinking this beer so I can just keep smelling it. Almost.

Thanks to eyebereej for sending this one! Reviewed from notes. Poured from a bomber into a Cigar City pint glass.
A: Pours a light gold with mild haze, lots of visible carbonation, and 1 1/2 finger's worth of white fluffy head. Very pretty.
S: Tropical fruits, grapefruit, melon, lemon, grassy and a bit of dank and resin. I do feel like there's some white vinous character as well, but I don't know if that's just the power of suggestion from the label.
T: Tropical fruits, melon, a bit of spicy character; then citrus (lemon and some grapefruit). The resinous pine that I got in the nose doesn't appear in the palate. A light cracker malt lurks underneath the cacophony of hop flavors. Only mildly bitter on the hang for style.
M: Light body, good carbonation sensation, and the alcohol is well-hidden.
O: Nelson's not always my favorite hop, but this is really quite enjoyable. Wonderfully crafted IPA. Glad I got to try it.

Had this beer on tap at Alpine. I really enjoy going there. Not fancy - just down to earth with good people, food, and beer.
The pour was totally filled the glass leaving only a skim of white foam on top. No problem though - I appreciate the full pour. The beer was a clear gold/yellow color showing lively carbonation. The aroma was very citrus to me - grapefruit and orange, backed up by some fruitiness. I could also pick up nice pale malt. The taste was a nice balanced Nelson hop flavor with pale malt. The mouth feel was medium body with nice lively carbonation.
This beer is a very good example of a beer with Nelson S. hops. I generally am not a big fan of that hop but I fully enjoyed this brew.

Pours pale straw colored gold, foamy head settles to a comfortable pillow of fluff on the surface, tight lacing. Nose is cantaloupe, grapefruit, passion fruit, and pineapple hoppy aromatics, more pine as this warms, with spicy caramel malt in the finish. Taste is light melon, grapefruit and heavy pine, strong bitterness with a softer finish, light caramel malts and rye spice. Bright palate, mouthfeel remains light, very drinkable.

Poured from a 22 ounce bottle into an Allagash cervoise glass.
A: Clear gold with minimal effervescence and a thin cap of white head. Scattered lacing.
S: Wet, piney hops. A touch of peach. Aggressively hoppy.
T/M: Tasty! Hm. Initially, I found it one-dimensional, but now I'm not sure. Perhaps the most impressive thing is just *how long* the taste lasts. The initial carbonation and piney-astringent hop burst dominant for several seconds, longer than some full tastes in other beers. This is what led to the initial impression of one-dimensionality. But then something interesting happens. The hops soften and sweeten into a fruit-like character that still reminds me mostly of peach, maybe pineapple. Though fruit is there, a vegetal/earthy character is even more dominant when the hops fade. This gently spicy sort of expansive, chewy beer lingers for a while on the aftertaste, and remains after both bitterness and fruit have faded. Mildly dry.
O: This is a delicious beer. One of my favourite hops. A little English-esque for my liking, but perhaps it's an older bottle? At any rate, highly recommended. Would have again. I've tasted better IPAs, but nothing quite like Nelson.

Awesome white foamy head. Fluffy white head has great retention and nearly perfect lacing. Brew is light orange with lots of light yellows, moderately clear.
Very light and pleasant aroma. Apricots galore, light pineapple, almost like tropical fruit bubblegum. Very light, yet distinguished.
Light, creamy, full flavors, easy drinking, prickly-silk carbonation, well blended. Sweetness is non-existent same with bitterness. Bitterness starts in then is overwhelmed by creamy smoothness. Orange, pineapple, apricot, bready, oats.
Super drinkability, a fantastic offering from Alpine. As smooth of an IPA as I've ever had. Missing slightly with the aroma and slightly deeper flavors. A awesome brew nonetheless. Highly recommended!!!

Major fail for no bottle date.
A: Pours a hazy dull orange. Enormous frothy white head. Great head retention with a huge island of foam. Widespread spiderweb lacing from top to bottom.
S: Crisp grapefruit and a dry white wine. I guess Nelson hops really earn their name. Lost of apricot as it warms. A nice sharp rye malt to follow it. Familiar cat urine aroma in all the right ways.
T: Lots of grapefruit and cat urine. LOTS of it. One of the strongest ever. Robust but not overpowering spicy rye follows it and seemingly amplifies it. Not hugely bitter but has plenty of hop flavor to go around. Kind of an astringent, mouth-drying feel through the finish. Interesting white wine flavor lingering between sips. Really has a pretty convincing aftertaste. As it warms, the white wine is more and more prevalent.
M: Nice medium bodied. Long lasting bitterness and dryness leaves a lasting impression.
O: Man, Alpine can really make them, can't they? Had Duet last night which was amazing. This isn't QUITE as good. Very good, very different, just not quite as amazeballs. Not super bitter like duet but still has that big strength and complexity of hop flavors. Rye malt adds a further layer and stands out a bit. Great beer.

Bright, pale yellow - lemon-colored. Despite the bright appearance, it's thick and pulpy, almost completely opaque. One finger of perfectly white head, quickly fading, leaving nice lacing.
Aroma of grapefruit and sweet lemon. Hint of rye or spice, barest sign of clover honey or flower. Slightly delicate.
Immediately sweet, followed by a noticeable hoppy dryness, and then you're hit with a ton of fruit: ultra-sweet grapefruit, lemon, a hint of rind. The rye comes through in the finish, if at all. Very little malt balance, but still comes across as very smooth.
Alive and bubbly, but still a medium-light feel. You can toss it around with no foaming and no sting, although the carbonation makes you feel its presence. Lovely hop oil residue.
This should be up there with other single-IPA stalwarts such as Jai Alai and Flower Power. It is absurdly juicy, bright, and hoppy, alive, and yet eminently drinkable.
Thanks to JayORear for the trade!

Poured out of a 22oz bottle
A: Light straw colored, hazy unfiltered goodness.
S: Tons of tropical fruit, followed up with some citrus and a little underlying bready malt sweetness
T: You're hit with a some sweetness up front, that turns into a citrusy bitterness at the finish.
M: Not super carbonated, but just enough to coat your mouth in bitter goodness. Dry finish makes you want to go back for another sip.
O: This is the closest to a Hill Farmstead pale ale/ipa that I have tasted. It was delicious. I had high expectations going in, but this surpassed them. Very solid effort. Wish this was distributed to MA.

Video transcript provided by Newsy.com
Richard Overton is believed to be the oldest living World War II veteran.
At 107 years old, he got an enthusiastic reception when he arrived in Washington, DC Sunday. USA Today was there.
OVERTON: "Well, I wasn't expecting this kind of crowd."
This Veterans Day will be extra special for Overton — he'll start the day with breakfast at the White House with President Obama. (Via KHOU)
Overton volunteered to serve in 1942. He was a member of the 188th Aviation engineer Battalion as part of an all-black unit. (Via Fox News)
It's been 70 years since he came home from the Pacific, and Monday the Austin native will also visit Arlington National Cemetary with the president. (Via WYFF)
But if you're wondering how he'll react — if it's any indication, earlier this year he met Texas Governor Rick Perry — and was actually pretty chill about it. (Via KTBC)
REPORTER: "Are you excited about meeting the governor?"
OVERTON: "No, he's a human, ain't he? What? I ain't scared of him."
Curious the secret to Overton's long life?
He told USA Today he puts a tablespoon of whiskey in his coffee evey morning — and smokes a dozen cigars a day.
We don't recommend it — but it obviously works for Overton.

Excellent place to stay in Westport. Stunning house, amazing views of the water and islands, and an incredible breakfast that included local jams/breads and much more. Elizabeth was very helpful.

Elizabeth went out of her way to help us access the wi-fi to e-mail friends/family back home, greeted us with tea/coffee, and we had an excellent breakfast awaiting us in the morning. I would highly recommend staying at Elizabeth's house!
Staying with Elizabeth at her beautiful house was a treat. The room was clean and neat and stocked with info on the area. Elizabeth gave us the run of the house, including the kitchen so we could cook for ourselves.
We were also very pleased that she provided access to composting and recycling - not something you always see.
If you are visiting the Westport area, do not hesitate to book with Elizabeth.
Staying in Elizabeth's home was magical. It is located on the outskirts of Westpot right on clew bay. The views were spectacular. Elizabeth was a wonder host, and was very helpful in recommending things to explore in her area. We enjoyed her company and had many interesting conversations around her kitchen table. Would definitely recommend staying at her home.
Elizabeth is an extraordinary host, she gave us many advices to find out a good restaurant or to visit the country . The room has got a wonderfull view and there are so many things to do in very near.
Elizabeth is a very good host and interesting person, we discovered while staying at her place.
Very nice and quiet house and spectacular views on the seashore.
Laurent & Sandra
Elizabeth is a wonderful host, and true to pictures, has a stunningly beautiful home. We were very impressed by the house, room, kitchen, and of course the views of the bay and mountains. Elizabeth did a wonderful job of making us feel at home. My son loved the ocean walks and took great interest in how Elizabeth maintains her house. I would love to spent more time here but had to hit the road. Next time...
Elizabeth is an excellent host. We were very grateful to her for letting us stay after a last-minute reservation. The house is in a very remote location, but it's perfect for a get-away. Very tidy, comfortable, and well-decorated. Highly recommend!
Clew Bay is a special place to be, and we feel quite fortunate to have been able to do so in Elizabeth's secluded bay-side home. The room and full bathroom,were a delight, with sky-lights or roof windows that flood the room with daylight or moon shine. What a nice experience it was awaken with a view of the bay and Croagh Patrick. Elizabeth is a fine and friendly hostess, she offered us a perfect blend of helpfulness, and privacy, sharing the comfort of her abode, a fine breakfast, excellent insights into the local culture, restaurants, and activities. Staying here enriched our visit to Ireland. Thank you, Elizabeth.
Tell others in the Airbnb community about your stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay with Elizabeth in her lovely home. The views were stunning from our bedroom windows across Clew Bay to Croagh Patrick . There was a relaxed feeling in the house with often beautiful Irish music playing. Our tastes have been awakened to new singers and groups introduced to us by Elizabeth. ( On CD, I must add!) 'Our host' was very welcoming, informative and helpful about how we could get the best out of our stay in the area. We hope to revisit and check on how the Cherry tree is growing, which David helped her plant! Would recommend in every way.

ASIA/NORTH KOREA - "Stop to crimes against humanity, access to humanitarian agencies": NGOs letter to Kim Jong-il
Seoul (Agenzia Fides) - Protesters and civil society activists took to the streets today in Seoul to ask North Korea to "stop the crimes against humanity and violations of human rights" and "to allow access to humanitarian agencies", to help the people who are starving. The initiative, launched by the "International Coalition to stop the crimes against humanity", involved more than 50 among non-governmental Organizations and Federations of associations working at an international level for the protection of human rights, such as Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, International Federation of Human Rights (FIDH) and several Christian-based NGOs like "Christian Solidarity Worldwide" (CSW) and "Christian Lawyers Association".
The coalition wrote a letter to the President of North Korea, Kim Jong-il, which was delivered today to the headquarters of the North Koreans embassies in various cities in the world like London, Paris, Geneva, New York, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Tokyo. The letter, Fides received, contests the regime's widespread violation concerning human rights: "We call for an end to all executions, to stop deliberate and systematic torture and forced labor, and to close down re-education camps".
NGOs also want UN Special Observer for Human Rights and the International Red Cross to have access in North Korea, especially to inspect the prison camps where there are over 200 thousand people, according to NGOs,. The letter calls on the government in Pyongyang to respect the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on social and political rights, of which the country is signatory.
Finally, the NGOs launch an urgent appeal to Kim Jong-Il so that he allows access to humanitarian organizations, considered urgent to help people who suffer from hunger and poverty, aggravated by recent floods that hit the country.
The spirit that animates the network of NGOs – explains to Fides a CSW representative - "is a deep concern and participation in the immense suffering of the North Korean people. It is time to put an end to crimes against humanity, to stop impunity and the inhuman system of terror imposed as a yoke on the innocent civilian population". In recent weeks, the NGOs network had made a similar appeal to the United Nations (see Fides 2/10/2011). (PA) (Agenzia Fides 06/10/2011)
