2.98/5 rDev -2.3%
The pour is a really lovely black, dense and completely opaque. Head was the color of the foam on top of a Coke, and nice and thick, but with little staying power.
The scent is strongly peppermint, with a chocolate undertone. Hardly any "beery" scent comes through, and really, it smells a little like old candy. It's also a little astringent, actually.
The taste is... interesting. This is a total novely beer, and not that awesome. This is not a well balanced beer. There is some stoutyness to the actual drink, but no deep complexity, no fun malts or hops pop out at all-- the mint takes over. The aftertaste is good, like a minty candy stick, but after a few seconds it shifts into a sort of mouthwash aftertaste... that eventually fades into something almost.... meaty? Not fun at all.
Mouthfeel is ok, but not stoutlike-- it's thin without being crisp, but it's at least heavier than a summer beer.

Appearance: 1/3 inch head that goes quick, dark brown in color, clear, medium carbonation
Smell: A big dose of peppermint with a bit of chocolate
Taste: huge dose of peppermint, some chocolate and dark coffee
Mouthfeel: moderate carbonation, slightly bitter, light borderline watery
Drinkability: This tastes like an Andes candy and has a taste that borderline reminds me of a dentist office. The body was way too light for a stout. If you like peppermint, you may like this. I will pass in the future as I had a hard time finishing this.

22oz bottle poured into snifter.
A - Pours an opaque mahogany with thin finger of light brown foam with nice lacing.
S - All about the peppermint. The mint is very dominating, faint hints of chocolate and roasted malt in the background. I can not detect any hop aroma.
T - Cool peppermint, when cold it is almost medicinal, but as the beer warms the mint softens. Some roasted malt in the finish, but for me this is all mint.
M - On the thin side with some carbonation on the low side.
D - I'm torn over this one. For a dessert beer this is PERFECT, however, if I'm in the mood for a night of drinking stout, this is too one dimensional for me.

Sampled on February 12, 2010. The pour is a rich dark brown to nearly black with a finger of creamy, frothy tan head. The aroma is not as pepperminty as I expected having read the earlier reviews. It is in there but the chief aroma is coffee grinds, chocolate malts, and light hops. The mouthfeel is a bit thinner than the average stout. As for the taste I also had an expectation of overpowering peppermint and I did get a bit of it. But like the aroma, the taste was a balance of burnt coffee grinds, raisins, and chocolate malts. I will try anything once and I am glad I tried it.

Poured from a 22oz bomber into two pint glasses. Thanks to HeatherAnn for the assist. Extra special thanks to Vanillamike for sending this in our recent trade!
Stout brewed with peppermint leaves.
A: Pours a gorgeous looking stout black with a creamy and sticky, two fingers of dark brown colored head. Retention is good but no lace was left behind.
S: Oddly metallic aroma when cold. Ewwww. Surprisingly, it takes on a gentler, sweeter note as it warms. Also, I picked up some toasty malt near the end.
T: So weird to taste a flavor that my brain keeps telling me doesn't belong in beer. Heather laughed and said it tastes like someone squirted toothpaste in her stout! Peppermint and citrus hops...very interesting.
M: Slightly sweet, slightly dry. Pretty darn minty. Finishes dry with a bit of a fruity tang.
D: We're glad got to try this. A peppermint stout...who would've thunk it? Heather thinks this would be vastly improved if they'd used some chocolate malt or something sweet to give this more of a chocolate mint brownie flavor.

Pours a two finger light brown head that fades quickly to a ring leaving no lace. Black color, no highlights. Medium carbonation and heavy bodied. Roasted coffee and mint nose. Flavor is roasted/burnt coffee and strong fresh mint leaves. The brewer puts the ABV at 5.5%. $3.99 for a 22oz bottle from Smiley's Beverage Dover, NH.

22oz bottle received as winnings in the Sunday Night Football Squares LIF from VanillaMike. Thanks Mike! Poured into a Brooklyn snifter.
A - Pours an opaque pitch black without a hint of light passing thru, even at the edges when held to a light. A finger of mocha colored foam sits on top briefly...fades to a skim coat of bubbles and a thick collar.
S - Cool, slightly sweet...definitely pepperminty. Roasted notes slightly in the background - coffee, burnt aromas, touch of bitter chocolate. Peppermint really sits on top of every other scent and is the focus...very interesting. Have to say I'm liking it.
T - Somewhat thin coffee flavor infused with peppermint. Mint is well integrated into the flavor. Does not dominate at all...just gives an overall coolness to the flavor. Still plenty of Roasty stout character. Dark roasted grains, somewhat burnt in character. Coffee that was in the aroma isn't in the flavor so much. Overall, this works, but a slight letdown after the aroma.
M - A little bit on the thin side for my liking but not quite watery in feel. Carbonation is on the low side, but it works well in this beer. Very cool peppermint feel in the mouth...not one to drink outside in the 10 deg weather we're having here today. Wish it had a bit more body to it, but overall, I'm not complaining.
D - This is a very smooth stout. Roasty, sweet, and minty...balanced fairly well. I once made a mint stout homebrew which worked really well, so I had really high nostalgic expectations for this. Mostly lived up, but completely. Definitely would like to have this one again. Interesting beer that I can't compare to any other commercial stout...give it a shot - sounds a little strange, maybe - but pretty good beer.

Pours a solid black color with a huge tan head that sticks around forever. Smells of mint, lots of mint. Hints of coffee and chocolate on the edges, but this one is heavy on the mint. Taste is creamy chocolaty with a hint of roast and lots of mint. Creamy almost watery mouthfeel, medium body and carbonation. I've had this twice now and when it was really fresh I found the peppermint overwhelming. Now the flavors are starting to come together a bit with the roasty stout character able to show itself. This is an interesting beer, but I still think its over minted and drinkability suffers.

Pours deep black. Leaves a tan brown head that sits and stays while leaving some bubbly foam lacing. Smells like mint. That's it. I can smell it from here. Nothing wrong with that and it is something I have never smelled from a beer before. Taste is the mint right away, but it is not as overwhelming as you would think. It's balanced well with some bitter oats and and piney hops while keeping the mint at the forefront, but not dominant. A bit of stickiness lingers towards the end as well. It is more carbonated than your ordinary stout, but drinks smooth and easy; definitely worth a try. And keeps my breath fresh.

Poured into a snifter, revealing midnight brown body with a decent amount of thick tanned head. Some lacing. This beer totally smells like peppermint. If you do not like peppermint-scented things, you will not like it. I happen to think the smell fits the name. Intense peppermint aroma, like in a brewed peppermint tisane with a slight malty profile after. Smells like peppermint tea, seriously.
Tastes pepperminty and stouty. Not sweet. Fairly light body. Very much like beer with peppermint tea. I would have wished for more roasted and chocolaty flavors coming through. Carbonation is slight and tingly, but gives way to a thin smooth mouthfeel. Weirdest medicinal aftertaste. This is perhaps the most refreshing stout I've ever had... consider using it as a digestif. It's not very strong in any taste beyond the peppermint character and if it were sweeter, it would be more of a dessert beer. I kind of like it the way it is. Quite drinkable.
Overall, it's very different. Maybe I'd appreciate peppermint more in an RIS than in a regular stout, but this is certainly a worthy artistic interpretation.

2.17/5 rDev -28.9%
This is a novelty beer that really doesn't work. The beer is inky black with a dark tan head, not much retention, no lacing. The nose is overpoweringly peppermint, maybe a bit of coffee grind, maybe some charred dark malts. The nose isn't all that appealing.
The taste isn't any better. The peppermint might have worked better with a slightly sweeter malty stout. The peppermint in this case accentuates the coffee grind, burnt roasts, and charred flavors. It really brings those flavors down a few notches. It has a mouthwash type feel in the finish, and the burnt flavors on top of the peppermint have just done me in with this beer. I'm glad I only paid $4 for the bomber so no remorse in pouring this one down the drain. Try again Manchester because this is a failed experiment.

Pours a pitch black color with a brown one-finger head into my glass. Good presentation I'd say.
Aroma has a slight hint of mint followed by cream, coffee and chocolate as well. Seems about right for the style.
Taste is minty with cream and coffee standing out the most as flavors. Mint likes to hang around the back of the mouth.
Mouthfeel is full of lingering mint and coffee. Carbonation's a bit high here but not too overpowering.
It's a basic stout accentuated by a hint of peppermint. Easy to drink but otherwise, worth a try only once.

Great appearance...very dark body with a nice coffee colored head. Strong mint smell, with a background of caramel...sweet, but not overwhelming. Standard stout-like taste at first, with the peppermint flooding the mouth after a second or two. Mouthfeel is a little thin-bodied and flat for my taste. Kind of a novelty beer...good for splitting with some friends during the holidays but not one I'd drink on any sort of regular basis.

Found this to be a strange but still pleasing brew. Pours a rich black color that leaves a nice brown head. The head disappears quciker than i thought it would though and there is no real lacing to speak of. The peppermint is very very strong out of this one. Sort of reminds me of those star peppermint candys i used to get as a kid. Thats really the main smell i didn't get a wiff of much else. Taste is a different matter than smell though, some chocolate muscles its way through. The peppermint is still there but not really as strong when you think about how strong the aroma is. Very thin and very drinkable this is not a bad beer at all it just sort of strange, but in a good way. Not for everyday drinking but i can see myself buying a few when i want something different.

Picked this up at the local homebrew shop. I can honestly say that I've never had peppermint in my beer, but I'm excited to try it.
Poured this into a tulip glass. Typical dark looking stout, with a thin tan film across the top of the body. Some lacing on the glass.
Wow, peppermint is correct. There is no denying that there is peppermint or peppermint flavor in this beer. Beneath this strong aroma is the smell of chocolate malts and not much else. The aroma is a bit one-dimensional, but it does deliver the peppermint.
The flavor reminds me those small Andes mint bars mixed with wintergreen gum. Or maybe like somebody took peppermints, crushed them and mixed them into a somewhat chocolaty stout. Flavor is mostly a copy of the aroma.
Mouthfeel much like most American stouts, except that this beer leaves your mouth feeling like you just brushed your teeth. Refreshing, but weird at the same time.
Drinkability is so, so. The beer is definitely interesting, but I wouldn't want more than a pint of this. I'm mostly drawn back to my glass, because I can't really figure out what is going on.
Overall, I'm glad I got to try this beer. Quite unique, but I'm not sure how well the peppermint works with this stout. Maybe if the base of the beer was bumped up a bit and the peppermint was toned down a touch the flavor would seem less jarring. Either way, I love to try new things and I'm glad that Manchester Brewing is throwing something out that is a bit different. Go pick one up. It's definitely worth a try.

Out of a bomber this beer was a very dark brown color with one finger of head that did not retain itself particularly well and left little lacing. The aroma was dominated by the peppermint leaves along with coffee and some roasted malt. The flavors were also dominated by the mint that really quashed everything else. Coffee and chocolate malt could be detected underneath, albeit weakly. The mouthfeel was ok, the body medium/full and the carbonation a little high for the style. An interesting theory but poorly executed.

pours a strange opaque murky black, with a grey/brown head and decent lacing. Smells of Peppermint, Peppermint, a small amoount of cocoa, coffee, and then some more Peppermint. It tastes lick licking a chalk board that had been sprayed with binaca (remember that stuff?). Felt a bit chalky in the mouth as well but decent medium body and carbonation. I actaully enjoyed the clean minty aftertaste, but overall I was not a fan. Worth a try if you think it is something you'd like, but I will not bother with it again.

Received this brew as an extra in a recent trade with BeerTruth. I'm very intrigued by this beer as peppermint in a stout is fairly new to me. Drank from my Surly nonic pint glass.
Appearance- Pours a nice pitch black with a decent half finger dark brown head. After a few minutes the head dies down leaving just a thin collar with no cap and no lacing.
Smell- Definitely peppermint in this one as it's fairly menthol like and spicy in the nose. Maybe a bit of chocolate works its way in with all the peppermint but it's fairly light. This smells exactly like a candy cane.
Taste- The peppermint is a bit more subdued than the nose led me to believe and it's integrated in the beer fairly well. Peppermint sticks and a bit of an earthy cocoa nib like thing mix to give a candy sort of vibe. Honestly, as I sit on this beer and slowly drink waiting for it to open it, it never really does. It's just straight up peppermint and chocolate. The finish has plenty of chocolate on the finish that lingers.
Mouthfeel- On the thin side of medium with a lightly crisp bite of carbonation.
Drinkability- Overall not too bad. I was pretty worried when I glanced at some of the other scores and saw how low they are. I don't think this beer is too bad even though it is sort of one dimensional. Interesting beer to say the least. Thanks much Adam!

2.08/5 rDev -31.8%
22oz, not 100% sure where I bought this one.
A- All the standard stout checks- deep, dark brown, almost black, really nice and voluminous head that is a stained-wood brown itself. Fizzes out pretty quickly.
S- Peppermint, candy canes, all that good stuff. Mild roast coffee. Pretty one-dimensional, but expected.
T- Wow. Roast coffee is overpowering the mouth on this one. Peppermint is there in the finish and is pretty strong, but the acidic dark roast coffee is throwing me for a loop here. Almost like the bottom of a pot that's been sitting, the heavy roast flavors aren't really going anywhere or doing anything for the peppermint. Perhaps chocolate would have been a better focus?
M- Acidic black coffee is the first thing that comes to mind- thin, not very impressive.
D- Didn't finish the bottle, which is rare. I really never pour out a beer. I got 3/4 of the way through the bomber and had just had enough. Glad I tried it, won't be buying another one or giving it to friends. Interesting, but not a winner. I think if it was more chocolatey and a bit thicker in the mouth it could be a step in the right direction.

pours black with an almost grayish-khaki colored head that retains and laces well.
smell is of peppermint. strongly peppermint. only stout aroma is a touch of chocolate that can barely be detected if searched for. would like a bit of a beer aroma in this beer.
taste follows the nose, but with a tad more chocolate. some roasted malt and coffee flavors come through too, but only in the middle as the peppermint dominates the beginning and end of this beer. unfortunately the flavors don't quite work together for me. at all.
almost medium mouthfeel with little carbonation that finishes watery, but leaves your mouth feeling clean and fresh due to the toothpaste flavor that lingers a long, long time.
not about to pour it down the drain, but I am also not overly enjoying this one. Brush your teeth than minutes later drink a light bodied and subtly roasty stout, and you should have a general idea of what to expect from this one.
Edit: as I get further and further through the bomber, the temptation to pour this down the drain gets greater and greater thus lowering my drinkability rating

22oz brown glass pry-top. No date.
Appearance: Pours a thick black with almost no head. Tan film-like bubbles float on top. No light passes through.
Nose: BIG peppermint stick aromas on top of bitter dark roasted coffee grounds.
Palate: Sharp for how thick and dark it looks. Tastes like a trendy peppermint coffee from Asteroid-Dollars. The mintiness adds an acid or hop-like edge and keeps the stout light feeling on the palate.
Notes: An interesting brew for sure. Glad I tried it, but probably won't need to have another one. I could see some people really loving it, on the hand. It's definitely well made. FFO flavored coffees.

Michael Bisping vs. Jorge Rivera
Thank God someone decided to promote this card. I didn't think it would be Jorge Rivera, but I'll take it. His series of hype videos are putting progressives like Chael Sonnen to shame and Bisping is certainly doing his part to make us believe this fight has become personal. I don't really think Bisping cares about a few videos, but he's playing along nicely. Their stare down at yesterday's weigh-ins was epic. An 'A' for effort all around.
As the actual fight goes? I think it is tailor made for Michael Bisping to be successful. His opponent likes to keep it standing and isn't an elite grappler. If Bisping can stay on the outside and force Rivera to box with him he should be able to pick him apart. Even though he dropped his fight with Wanderlei Silva, the Brit hasn't looked bad since being brutally knocked out by Dan Henderson at UFC 100. His fight with Dan Miller looked like a one sided sparring session and he looked pretty impressive in his last fight against Yoshihiro Akiyama.
I just have a bad feeling about Rivera. He's nearing 40 years of age, hasn't fought in 11 months and isn't close to the same kind of athlete as Bisping. I want to believe, but I don't. Other than the slim chance of landing flush with a strong overhand right, I'm not sure where Rivera has a competitive advantage in this fight.

- I have tried since the end of January to get my W-2. I would really like to file my taxes even though they are going to be late. How do I do this?
Answer by Warrior Accounting
You can file Form 4852, Substitute For Form W-2, with your return. You will be asked on the form how you determined your wage numbers so it would be best if you had your last paystub.
- I'm currently an incoming senior in high school and currently, I am taking multivariables at a community college. I am seriously regretting this decision but the deadline to drop out without a W in my class has already passed. I feel like I am going to get a C or D in this class but I don't know how bad a W will look when I apply to college. Should I drop the class and take the W? What will colleges think when they see the W in my transcript?
Answer by Emmelyn
W is better than a D or F. Just make sure to not get more than 4 W's i would say through your ENTIRE college career. Well that's mostly for transfer students, but still a lot of W's are bad.
- I am a single, recent college grad and just moved into an apartment, and am starting my first full-time job at a corporation. I am filling out my W-4 Form and was wondering how many deductions i am supposed to put on line 5 for total number of allowances. Please help me out. Thanks!
Answer by jingles
You should put either 0 or 1. If you want to get some income tax back at the end of the year, then put 0. If you want more money in your check each week and very little or no money back (maybe even owe a little) then put 1.

I found the coolest of all the sydney promotional products. We sell high-end audio systems for large venues such as theaters and concert halls. School auditoriums, sports centers and other large public spaces that need audio engineers and products to give them great sound come to us. The cool product I found mixes old and new technology, and it is pretty much everything we are about.
We can put great sound in an old building. Think of a grand old church that is hundreds of years old with a modern day congregation that needs to hear the pastor and choir. We use the latest technology to bring them great sound. The promo product is basically a plastic megaphone you use with your smartphone. It boosts the mobile's sound just like the megaphones used on the first record playback machines did. It is a blend of old and new. Purely a novelty item, but it gets the point across nicely.
We have our company name and slogan printed on the little megaphones. We have different ones that fit the popular smartphone brands. Customers think they are really cool. The slogan talking about new technology in old buildings could not have a better promo product used. I found it at a website when I was looking for novelty Sydney promotional products. I bought two gross of them right away. Our company name, slogan and website are on every one of the promo items.
We were handing them out left and right. The construction companies that recommend us for the sound portion when buildings are renovating get a lot of them. Everyone that gets one has to try it out right away, and then they go and show others. This promo product gets a lot of use. They work too! They amplify the sound coming out of a mobile without any need of batteries or speakers.

We enjoyed "The Jade" (but, it was not quite as impressive as "The Dawn"). On the other hand, we did feel that the food was 'superior' - compliments to The Chef and kitchen staff!
Never did we feel 'a need' to pay for the supplementary restaurants. We used the Asian restaurant once, because we love that food, but no way was it 'exceptional'.
If I remember rightly, the 'aft' restaurant on Deck 7 was called "The Grand Pacific Restaurant". The 'left-hand side of the menu changed daily; the right-hand side was static. Often, we were "spoilt for choice"!
We did use the Garden Cafe when the restaurants were not open, (whilst in port). I do have to say, the "Indian buffet food" was superb.
Husband & I were booked into aft cabin 11150 - a mini-suite. Yes! It cost us more, but, was more spacious than the 'mid-cabins' we have booked on previous cruises and, we loved the 'aft' view.
BUT! One very big drawback! - We were immediately below the "Great Outdoors Cafe" and, when their last clients had 'retired', the crew began to 'restore order' and possibly even 'clean' the deck. This occurred around 02:30 hours, with them 'dragging' the tables and chairs into position, BUT, ACROSS OUR 'CEILING'! Totally unacceptable noise!
After several days of suffering 'interrupted' sleep, I did phone down to Customer Services, at 02:30. Consequently, for our last two nights, the problem was 'adressed'. I received a message to 'speak to Customer Services' and did so. Not satisfactory!
(When on the Norwegian Sun - the walking/runnng deck was 'roped off' until 08:00 (if I remember rightly) to avoid the 'pounding feet' affecting the cabins immediately below).
- This time, I was told that 'the remedy' WOULD NOT become 'ship's policy'! I know for 'fact' that one other family complained during this cruise. I really cannot believe that previous passengers have silently accepted this 'state of affairs'.
Norwegian Jade! - you do have to address this problem!

Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this bottle. The beer pours a yellow color with a white head. The aroma is heavy on the cotton candy, citrus and bread notes. I get a lot of sweetness in the aroma. The flavor is a mix of bitter pine and grass from the hops as well as some bready malt. I also get some floral notes and a tad bit of butter. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Decent orange color, almost 1" of larger bubbled head. Not much for retention or lacing, but I'm a sucker for orange colored ipas. Aroma, ugh, where's the hops man? Bleh, some very mild hop aroma I guess if you look for it, not exactly inspiring in a dipa when you have to search and search for some semblance of hop presence. Seriously, I smell more hops in some pilsners.
Taste, same thing, sure there's plenty of bitterness, but hop flavor and mouthfeel? Fuggetaboutit. If you only like the taste of copper and bitterness, this is the beer for you. I guess it didn't really come out strong with the alcohol, but who cares, it lacked what it should display most prominently. When its not in the nose or tongue, jeez, what are we doing here?
$8 down the drain (not really, I used it for corn on the grill).

Pours a beautiful deep caramel amber bodied with a light tan head formin thick and billowing above the rim of my chalice, very nice look to it. Aroma has citrus layers of malts imbedded in it, with pine and caramelized malt sugars noted. Almost more of a barleywine when I smell it but after first taste I realize it is a barleywine light with less alcohol but much similar flavors. Caramelized malt sugars run across the palate with big citric and pine notes that bring out an earthy quality about this beer that is definitely enjoyable and admirable at the same time. Mouthfeel is resinous with hops and earthy (marijuana) like character a fine even keeled malt presence super sweet but balanced with hop bitterness. Enjoyable from beginning to end, the type of beer that I really enjoy especially when harvested from the West Coast.

Appearance. Pours a pretty clear, amber gold with a finger of sticky pale yellow head that leaves some decent lacing.
Smell. Caramel, a little toasted grains and pink grapefruit.
Taste. Nice toasty caramel grains and decent piney, grapefruity hops. Nice bitter citrus rind finish. Lighter in taste than some dipas, but not a negative. Really nice.
Mouthfeel. Medium body, medium carbonation.
Overall. Really nice DIPA. Another random grab from a Seattle Whole Foods that turns out to be a winner.

Serving Type: 22 ounce bomber poured into a pint glass. No code date on it, not that I could find, so I am not sure how fresh the beer is.
Appearance: Pours an orange color with a nice creamy head. Lots of tiny bubbles, some lacing on the glass.
Smell: For a double IPA I was expecting more hop aroma, but again I am not sure when the beer was brewed and bottled, some piney citrusy notes, I think this is faint for a double IPA.
Taste: I was also expecting more from the taste but it is smooth, hop flavors up front, then some bitterness. The bitterness is not up to par for a double IPA. I have other double IPAs with some bitterness that is noticeable up front. Nice malt on the backend of the palate, I am getting more of piney or earthy flavor than citrus notes on the hops. I don't notice a heavy alcohol taste. Good taste.
Mouthfeel: Nice carbonation, creamy head, not a lot of oily or resiny hop feel, it's smooth.
Overall: Falls short of what I think a double IPA is but it's drinkable and I would purchase this in a six pack if it were available. I paid $6.99 for a 22 ounce bomber. It's good. I have had other double IPAs that are superior to this but this is not bad.

4.2/5 rDev +18.3%
Appearance: (3.5)
- This is a rather dark amber brew. Light hue to a mostly clear brew from the bomber. Foamy thick inch of head settles to a very even thin blanket of ultra-light tan head, large spotty ring in the glass..
Smell: (4.0)
- This has a really nice smell to it. Caramel malt, husky grain, bready cinnamon dessert quality to it, while balanced with a pine, grassy, and floral hop arrangement. This smells super solid and balanced, and both the malt, and hop aromas are unique to their own.
Taste: (4.5)
- Great bready caramel malt and fine malt. This isn't as sweet as I was expecting. That is a good trait. The bitter grassy hop is just right to balance the malt forward kick. This double IPA has balance written all over it as far as flavor. Light alcohol, and still an oat-like cinnamon dessert flare which is so subtle.. but perfect. I must have got a good bottle.
Mouth Feel: (4.0)
- This is a well rounded, full bodied double IPA. Its bitterness lends a dry feel, with a cloying, and chewy finish. This is a bit of a meal in a glass. Great.
Overall: (4.0)
- This is another one of those brewers that I rarely visit a beer from. I see their bottles on the shelves often, and am afraid that when I return to those outlets, they are the same bottles. I got this one fresh and new, and really dig it. It is dangerously drinkable, and I bet is a killer treat on tap. Certainly worth the purchase.

Bomber poured into Duvel tulip
Picked this up on whim at Whole Foods yesterday. It's my first experience with an organic brew.
Great color to this beer. A deep amber glow that is slightly see through. The head is almost non existent with just an off white crown that sticks around until the end.
Smell is very floral with hints of hops with a good swirl.
Taste is very piney with a very bitter, hoppy finish. Comes off a little tart. I wish there were more complexities to this beer. Not much to it. Pine and hops.
Extremely high carbonation level. Definitely the most carbonation in any DIPA that I've had. Very light feel to it and it goes down smooth. Highly drinkable.
My overall impression is a little underwhelmed. I'm all for simple beers but I feel this needs a little more added to it. I'm not sure if I'll search this one out again. Possibly a good beer to drink during a cookout. The 8.2% ABV is practically unnoticed.

I get this for $4.99 on 52nd street and Evanston here in Indianapolis. I love Earth Thirst 2IPA! Smell is soft malt, taste is a total hop bomb. dry, citrusy, herbal. A winner! I can't understand the mediocre reviews for this beer. It's not to be missed, as far as I'm concerned.

22 oz. bottle poured into a pint glass. Thanks for this extra Brian!
A- Pours a clear amber with a one finger head that dissipates fairly quickly. No sign of lacing.
S- Caramel and toffee malt. Some pine follow as well as faint citrus notes.
T- Lot's of pine followed by some grapefruit and lemon zest and a good amount of sweet malt. Finishes with a pretty boozy finish.
M- High carbonation, actually too high for a DIPA. It's slightly oily and not really a smooth and creamy mouthfeel you can find in some other DIPA's.
O- While certainly not a bad DIPA, it lacks the complexity and mouthfeel that I look for in the style.
Thanks again Brian!

22oz Bottle
A- Appearance is a murky golden copper. Finger head on a 16 oz pour.
S- For a double the smell is not as abundant as expected.
T- Taste is what is expected from a standard IPA. No surprises,
M- A bit thick on entry with a subtle punch, again not as expected with an IPA.
O- Expected a bit more from this beer, probably will not purchase again.

I love double IPAs... especially the ones that have a higher alcohol content, but are able to mask that with an almost whiskey-like smoothness. Unfortunately, the Earth First Double IPA doesn't bring the alcohol content typical of an Double IPA, and falters when compared to top IPAs.
The smell of this beer is amazing... floral, clean, crisp--almost perfect. The taste, though, is exceedingly sharp... almost hard to take. It's typical of what I've found in young breweries, where the focus is on producing a style without concern for producing the best of the style. I wouldn't consider it a Double IPA, and it's really an "ok" IPA--something that I would drink, but not seek out or order.

When Motorola released its Moto X smartphone earlier this month, the voice recognition feature was considered one of the most noteworthy. The first device Motorola conceived and built since Google acquired the company, the Moto X used voice-recognition technology to access Google Now, a digital personal assistant of sorts that makes recommendations based on the user's search history.
All a Moto X user has to do is say "OK Google Now" while in the vicinity of the phone, and the personal assistant would activate to execute whatever command followed. That means no clumsy typing on a touchscreen while the users' hands are busy, like when they're driving, for example. David Pogue at The New York Times called voice command feature the phone's "most useful," claiming that its no-touch capability makes it a safer and more convenient alternative to Apple's Siri.

Treadmill Desks Battle "Love Handles" & Lower Risk of Death
Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) -- A study recently released and published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that the extra fat around the waist dramatically increased the risk of premature death in individuals. Even individuals with normal BMI Indexes were at higher risks if their hip/waist ratio indicated the presence of excess abdominal fat. "This increase in fat storage is due primarily to lack of exercise throughout the day, such as that provided by treadmill desks," according to Steve Bordley, founder of TrekDesk, a treadmill desk manufacturer.
This increase in fat storage is due primarily to lack of exercise throughout the day, such as that provided by treadmill desks This extensive study, conducted in Europe, followed more than 360,000 individuals from nine European nations. On average the study participants were 51 years old at the beginning of the ten year study. Even with normal BMI (Body Mass Index) rates each 2 inch increase in belt size equated to a 13% and 17% increase in death risk for women and men respectively.
Why are individuals with normal BMI's but disproportionate hip/waist ratios still at risk? The answer seems to lie in the nature of abdominal fat. It is theorized by Dr. Tobias Pischon of the German Institute of Human Nutrition that abdominal fat may trigger "messenger substances" that lead to chronic diseases.
A previous study found that sedentary lifestyles and lack of movement throughout the day may be the heart of the problem. More than 50% of American's now spend their entire work day seated at a desk. "A University of Missouri study showed that while sitting, our bodies metabolic furnace virtually shuts down and enzymes normally produced to break down fat are released in diminished amounts. Calories that would normally be routed to our muscles for fuel are directed instead to adipose tissue for storage resulting in the weight gain referred to in these studies," stated Bordley. "Most of us are fighting a losing battle even if we can manage to fit in an hour of exercise three times a week, when on average we sit for more than 40 hours a week."
TrekDesk has launched an awareness campaign to pull together the facts from these numerous studies. "A majority of these studies have the same message: lose weight. Too many Americans are stressed already and have been unable to lose the weight. We need to emphasize that walking at work on a treadmill desk can activate the body's mechanisms for burning fat and keep it burning. Continual movement throughout the day has extraordinary health benefits, fat loss is just one of them," related Bordley.
TrekDesk's website at http://www.trekdesk.com contains excerpts of numerous studies outlining the effectiveness of incorporating daily walking. "Treadmill desks allow individuals to combat the very lifestyle that is leading to their decline in health.

[size=18pt]Vikings notebok: Goldberg hush about birthday
Smoot's neck OK[/size]
By Chad Courrier
The Free Press
MANKATO —
Adam Goldberg was trying to keep his birthday a secret, but he was worried that somebody must have found out.
"There were a lot of weird smiles,†he said.
Goldberg, a fourth-year offensive lineman, turned 26 on Saturday, and he was concerned with what his teammates might have planned for later in the day.
Ten days ago, the linemen celebrated Chris Liwienski's birthday with a night out for pizza, and he's hoping that he gets a similar, nonthreatening present.
"As a rookie, I never said anything because I didn't want to give anybody any extra reason to get me,†Goldberg said.
In college, his wife Brittany brought a cake to practice that fed all of his teammates, but he's realized that when you play football and your birthday is in August, you usually have to celebrate on another day.
"I just want to enjoy the day by having another good practice at training camp,†he said.
Smoot out, then in
Cornerback Fred Smoot did not participate in Saturday morning practice after suffering a slight neck injury on Friday.
Coach Brad Childress said that during a one-on-one passing drill, Smoot ran into a receiver and injured his neck, and there was some irritation in the area Saturday morning.
"I think he'll be OK,†Childress said. "You always err on the side of caution with neck injuries.â€
Childress compared the injury to one that kept receiver Marcus Robinson out of practice for two days earlier this week. Smoot didn't acknowledge where he was injured, saying only "I'm good.â€
Smoot returned for the noncontact afternoon practice, making a nice interception during the seven-on-seven drill. He stepped in front of a short out pattern and picked off Mike McMahon's pass for what would have been a touchdown.
Childress said a decision on Smoot's availability for Monday's preseason game against Oakland will be determined later Saturday. Dovonte Edwards filled in for Smoot on Saturday and will start Monday if Smoot doesn't.
Join the club
Left tackle Bryant McKinnie took the practice field Saturday morning with his fractured left hand bandaged heavily, looking like a big beehive about three times the size of his hand. In the afternoon, the club appeared even bigger.
McKinnie said the training staff is experimenting with different soft cast to protect the injury, and he's not sure what he'll wear in games.
"It's heavy, I get tired of carrying it around,†McKinnie said. "I'll get used to it.â€
Childress said that he's not concerned with McKinnie's ability to play with the cast, something that several players have worn during games.
"You know you can't hold in this game,†Childress quipped.
Fason is back
Running back Ciatrick Fason was back in the goal-line drills, banging into defensive players just three days after suffering the first concussion of his career during a similar drill. On Wednesday, Fason had just taken the handoff when defensive end Erasmus James busted up the play and made helmet-to-helmet contact with Fason.
"Usually when I get hit hard, I bounce right back up,†Fason said. "I'm still going to pound it in there because when you have fear, bad things happen.â€
Autograph milestone
Childress pronounced the new Autograph Zone a success during camp, and that more than 10,000 autographs have been signed since Aug. 1. Each day, a specific position group spends 20 minutes after the morning practice signing autographs for people who have gone through a maze of lines. Each person is nearly guaranteed one autograph, and depending on the length of the lines, there might be more opportunities.
Fans can also try to get autographs on their own by lining up at fences near the locker room.
"The guys have done a great job, and I think the fans have enjoyed and appreciated it,†Childress said. "I'm happy with the results, and our players have kind of enjoyed doing it.â€
New look for Greenway
During a practice period in which the offense was backed up against its goal line, the defense showed a four linebacker look that included starters E.J. Henderson, Napoleon Harris and Ben Leber, along with rookie Chad Greenway.
Childress said that defense was a special package to counter a three-tight-end look by the offense in goal-line or short-yardage situations. When asked if he'd like to see that defensive scheme used more often, Childress said, "As long as they don't have four receivers on the field.â€
Receivers Ryan Hoag, Jason Carter and Aaron Hosack each made a long reception Saturday, and Childress said all three will get plenty of opportunity in Monday's game. "We'll see if one of them distinguishes himself,†Childress said. ... Receiver Koren Robinson
hasn't taken many turns at returning kickoffs during recent practices, and Childress doesn't expect that to change during the preseason as he looks at other options. "You know Koren can do it at a Pro Bowl level,†Childress said.

- Syracuse Area Restaurants
Admissions & Financial Aid Staff picks (and reviews!) for favorite area restaurants:
Lauren Polak's pick – Dinosaur Bar-B-Que (Downtown Syracuse)
Think you can't hang with the biker crowd? Think again. Everyone is family at the Dinosaur and they have never flinched at my preppy 9 to 5 attire. Order the classic pulled pork sandwich, which has to be paired with the mac-n-cheese, coleslaw, and beans. Before you leave town, be sure to grab a jar of their famous "wango tango" sauce at the restaurant or any area Wegmans grocery store and become your own local pit boss.
Ashley Hoffman's pick – Alto Cinco (Westcott St.)
Giant burritos, unique specials, cozy eclectic dining area, and great people. What's not to love? Great for a night out, or take out. The only problem with this place is deciding what to order. A personal favorite is the fish tacos: crispy fried catfish with spicy chipotle mayo, cooled down by the fresh salsa, red onion, and cabbage. My mouth is watering just telling you about it.
Gina Soliz's pick – Empire Brewing Company (Armory Square)
The Empire is more than a brew-pub, serving sandwiches, burgers, and fries (although, they have those, too!). My favorite meal might be the fish tacos (grilled, not fried) with a side of sweet potato fries or blue corn bread. They keep 8 homemade brews on tap – most popular could be the "Skinny Atlas Kolsch" named after our local Skaneateles Lake or, my favorite, the IPA (a hoppy and bright brew).
Nikki Laubenstein's pick – Pastabilities (Armory Square)
The possibilities at Pastabilities are endless. Your meal starts with their famous spicy hot tomato oil served with Pasta's stretch bread. While the seasonal options are always delicious, a go-to menu item for me is the fresh basil-walnut pesto. From the generous, savory portions to the chic urban atmosphere, what's not to love?! Be sure to visit Pasta's Daily bread across the street to buy a loaf of delicious stretch bread to compliment your dipping oil at home!
Emily Zipprich's pick – Small Plates (Armory Square)
Small Plates Detroit has become one of my favorite restaurants in Syracuse. The menu is comprised of small and medium-sized portions that are meant to be shared. The menu has everything from pizza to fried chicken and waffles. Your plates are brought out as they are ready so there is always something new being served. Small Plates is the perfect place to try something that you might not be sure about; if you don't like it, someone in your party will!
Eddie Gulino's pick - Faegan's Pub (Marshall St.)
Not feeling like making the trek downtown to Armory Square? Leave Syracuse Law behind for a minute and head down to Marshall Street's very own Faegan's Café and Pub. This British and Irish inspired cuisine serves good old fashioned comfort food. Try the "Our Way" Black Label Burger topped with caramelized Guinness onions, applewood bacon, blue cheese, smoked Gouda and fresh arugula. The pub boasts great Tuesday-Thursday drink specials, each with unique and fun events that energizes the pub afterhours.

Lava Lamp Lip Gloss Recipe
Posted by Deborah Ward on January 31st, 2012 in flavoring, FUN soap colorant, lip gloss, wholesale craft supplies | Comments Off
Recipe makes 10+ Lava Lamp Lip Gloss Tubes
Create some groovy lip gloss that looks like a lava lamp!
What You Need:
¼ cup Fractionated Coconut Oil
1/8 cup Vegetable Glycerin
2 drops Tomato Red Liquid FUN Soap Colorant which is clearly specified to be used for lip applications
The reason you can create a lava look in this lip gloss, is because the glycerin portion (polar portion) of the lip gloss will not mix with the oil base portion (non polar portion). When you turn the lip gloss upside down, these layers will not mix. If you will be selling this product, please label your product according to FDA regulations.
1. Prepare your lava portion of your lip gloss:
A. Measure out 1/8 cup of vegetable glycerin
B. Add 2 drops of Tomato Red Liquid Fun Soap Colorant.
C. Stir well until color is evenly dispersed.
D. Fill your roller ball bottles ¼ of the way full of this lava mixture.
2. Prepare your Clear Flavored Lip Gloss portion of your lip gloss:
A. Measure out ¼ cup of Fractionated Coconut Oil
B. Add 2 ml. of Strawberry Cheesecake Flavoring Oil
C. Pour this mixture into your roller ball bottles. Be careful not to overfill or the roller ball will not fit into the bottle.
NOTE: When using lip colorants, they need to be cosmetic safe, and approved for lip use. Only some of Our Fun Soap Colorants will work in this recipe; you must read the specifics of each colorant before using in this recipe. Our upcoming lip tints will not work in this recipe because they are castor oil based, and it will ruin the lava affect of this product. Our soap dyes are not approved for lip use, and cannot be used.

A senior outside hitter from Hebron, Conn., Smolinski has recorded a perfect 4.00 GPA to date while concentrating on her major of Communication Disorders.
In order to qualify for CoSIDA All-Academic status, one must be an upper classman and have a GPA of 3.30 or above. This marks the second-straight season that Smolinski has garnered this academic accolade.
Smolinski has had another sensational season on the court this year in leading the Pride to the top seed in the upcoming New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference Championship this weekend. This year, she has totaled a team-best 325 kills on a .318 hitting percentage to go along with a team-high 280 digs. She has also chipped in 27 service aces and 26 blocks for a Pride team that owns a 23-5 record this year.
Two years ago, Smolinski was named winner of the prestigious Elite 89 Award, presented to the player at the NCAA Elite 8 with the highest grade point average.

It was a picturesque morning when I hopped on the bicycle and cycled to the farmers' market. On setting off I was very pleased with myself for saving the planet and burning calories at the same time. The sun was shining, the birds were singing and I was thoroughly convinced I was the modern day Snow White. It wasn't particularly far or mountainous but to say I arrived less than glamorous and somewhat flustered would be an understatement. Let's just say there was a bumble bee that seemed certain its hive was my nostril.
After the herculean exercise regime I had been through that morning you can understand why I chomped my way through a sausage roll immediately on arrival. This, several servings of chutney on crackers and some coffee allowed me to peruse the market without fear of fainting. Good job too as I got myself 1lb of venison mince and some purple sprouting broccoli. The mince was £2 and a bagful of broccoli was 95p. Absolute bargain.

Democrats host speaker on collapse of towers

I met Natalie the night of Richard Gage's speech and I didn't know how she would tackle this particular subject matter in writing her article. It turned out to be very fair and accurate representation; an excellent article.
on Jun 22, 2007 at 12:17 pm
Thank you Natalie for being so open minded and visiting our club.
I appreciate your article and you are always welcome to come to our meetings and cover our speakers.
on Jun 25, 2007 at 11:13 am
As an executive board member of the Tri-Valley Democratic Club I was disappointed to see our club host Richard Gage to speak about unfounded, alternative interpretations of Sept. 11th. Out of protest, I and other members did not attend. Though I support free speech, the Tri-Valley Democratic Club should not be used as a forum to advance crackpot theories accepted only by fringe groups and conspiracy theorists.
Instead, our club should have been addressing the issues of the day that concern everyone in the Tri-Valley, from Danville to Livermore: increasing access to health care; providing preschool education for all; making college affordable for tomorrow's leaders; and keeping Livermore's VA Hospital open to treat and care for our brave soldiers of today's war and wars past.
Being associated with 9/11 conspiracy theories damages the group's ability to tackle these more important issues.

Even as friends and family held a tearful birthday party for Paige Johnson this week, Covington police say they were out working leads on her disappearance.
For almost a full year, the mystery of what happened to her has haunted law enforcement in Kenton County.
"We still have officers assigned and we are going to continue to do this, and I have said this year ago, we are going to continue to do this until Paige is returned to her family," says Spike Jones of the Covington Police.
That commitment's shared by Commonwealth attorney Rob Sanders. He's not giving up on this case either.
"There are constantly new little small trickles of information that are being received by police and they have been very devoted in their pursuit of those leads and they will keep going," says Sanders.
Though Jacob Bumpass has never been named a suspect in Paige's disappearance, Sanders says police still have an interest in his connection to her.
And Spike Jones says, he's hopeful that this one year anniversary might lead to a new break in the case.
Jones has a message for those he says have information they are not telling.
"Please talk to us. That's someone's daughter. That's someone's mother. She's a human being, and she should be treated with that dignity," says Jones.

The Patriots' offensive line has been selected as the winner of the 2010 Madden Most Valuable Protectors Award.
Hall of Fame coach John Madden and Priloesc OTC presents the award to the league's best O-line. Patriots C Dan Koppen, ORG Dan Connolly and OL Mark LeVoir accepted the award in North Texas on Thursday.
"All season long, these guys proved they had the mental and physical toughness that enabled the Patriots' offense to put up impressive numbers on the ground and in the air," Madden said.
Two Patriots O-linemen, Logan Mankins and Matt Light, were Pro Bowlers. The unit ranked fourth in the league in sacks allowed and ninth in rushing yards per game.

Didn't follow my own advise
I have a 1965 Ford Industrial 2000 that I use to do our dirt road and other things. Got done the last time and parked it in front of our travel trailer. Went to move it because we were going on a trip with the travel trailer in a couple of days. Pushed the starter button and all I got was a click. Battery was fine so I took the starter motor out and checked it out. It was ok. Only other thing I could think of was a bad solenoid but I didn't have time to replace it. After an hour I was able to jack the bucket and Gannon scraper up and chain them up so I could tow it out of the way. Got home from our trip on Tuesday and on Thursday I attacked it again. Took the hood off so I would have a clear shot at the starter solenoid and what did I find but the nut missing for the positive battery cable terminal on the solenoid. One nut later and it started right up. If you notice at the bottom of my page, my quote is "TRY THE EASIEST THING FIRST" I guess I didn't follow my own advise.
Always try the easiest thing first.

If you are in the market for a new home, Tifton has one you won't find anywhere else. After years of careful planning and construction, Tifton's Green House is now on the market.
And ironically, the house of the future is nestled in between two homes in Tifton's historic district, and it's designed to fit right in.
In Tifton's historic district you'll find homes dating back to the 1900's, but one yellow house is very different.
"It's not normal at all, its definitely the house of the future. said Mike Brumby Executive Director of the Tift County Foundation for Education Excellence. "It's built as a 200 year old building, that you virtually make no repairs."
It's built to look like the other homes in the neighborhood, but it's stands out. "It's the most energy efficient home in Georgia. From the landscaping to the toilets, everything is energy efficient," said Brumby. "I would make the argument that this is the best built home in Georgia."
Inside you'll find dozens of green features, like Solatube skylights, that bring in natural light. To Pecan Wood windowsills, made from local orchard trees no longer producing high yields.
Tifton's Green House, on the market this week, is part of Tifton's green project and it's been in the works for three years. It's one of only three green structures in Tifton.
"The whole idea behind the grant was to show you could do it in the private sector, government sector and the business sector. A Partnership between UGA, Moultrie Technical college and Tift County Foundation for Excellence, a grant was awarded to help students learn about living green."
They were looking for a 501c3 to sponsor it, because so much stuff is donated to project like this and Tift County Foundation for Education Excellence was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time.
And it was built buy students at Moultrie Technical College. officials say buying this home, is a win win. not only do you get a beautiful home, but it's zero energy, and it's a way to show support for your community.
The asking price is $220,000, but officials say a federal tax exemption will give you $30,000 back. Also because they are a 501 c3 it is possible to make part of your payment as a donation.
