Ed Note: This FanPost has been edited slightly for front page posting.
A big part of drafting, I would assert, is not just in hitting on the players you take, but in predicting what kind of league they will be playing in, and on what kind of team they will be playing.
For instance, most people would consider a guy like Maxim Afinogenov a hit, because he had a few really productive offensive seasons--but his real value to the club was that he came into his prime just as the league was changing to allow more free flowing skilled players to thrive. Indeed, you saw just how important that was to his game as the clutching and grabbing returned and he fell off the face of the earth. The point being, aside from the truly elite hockey players who could thrive in any era or any system, a lot of guys' success or failure will depend on league and team trends.
To me it's clear that Darcy believes that the league is trending in the following directions:
1) Size/ Intangibles over Skill
This is perhaps the biggest departure from the way Darcy operated in the early part of the 2000s. Where as a lot of the players who came up through the system in the first decade of the 2000s were primarily skilled players first (Stafford, Ennis, Afinegonov, Gragnani, TJ Brennan) or close analogues to the skilled player--the puck moving defender with no offensive game and no physical game (Butler, Sekera come to mind). Of course there are some exceptions, like Kaleta, Paille, Weber, but by and large these were not players that were high investment players. The strategy of from 2000-2010 seemed to be to invest primarily in skilled players and to find a few grinder types to help fill out a lineup and add some intangibles.
Boy has that changed. Of course none of the guys the Sabres have invested in heavily are unskilled, per se (Grigorenko, Risto and Zadorov all appear to have quite a bit of skill to their game) but they are all also gigantic, and at least in the case of Risto and Zadorov, have a reputation for beign extremely gritty. Perhaps nobody fits the mold of what the Sabres are looking for better than Girgensons--a two way player first and foremost, who has a high compete level first and foremost, and who has questionable upside in the skill department. Compher, same deal. And out the window are these finesse, puck moving defenders; in are guys that are big, and physical and like to join the rush and have great shots from the point. Where we have indulged in skilled players, they have come with a lot of size (see Grigo, Bailey, Hurley, and even Myers).
Of course there have been some exceptions to this trend: Cody Hodgson comes to mind, and Ennis seems to be going nowhere. But the overall model has changed. Instead of investing heavily in skill and looking for intangibles and size on the cheap; it appears the team is ready to invest heavily in young players who are big and strong and who play with grit and character and have upside in the skill department; and sprinkle in a little bit of skill here and there.
2) Right Handed Defenders paired with Left Handed Defenders
Darcy said in two interviews that he believes this is a necessity in this league nowadays. If you look at the Blackhawks roster--three of their top six defenders were right handed, so there is some validity to this notion. I'm not going to pretend to be an X's and O's enough to know whether it's absolutely essential, but it's clearly something the Darcy is thinking about, and was one of his stated reasons for moving Sekera. It does make a fair amount of sense just thinking about it practically. Any little advantage is an advantage.
3) Mix of College and AHL developmental paths to ease strain on resigning prospects
It's also pretty clear that the Sabres are conscious of the fact that they are going to have a heck of a lot of prospects and want to avoid a situation where they are all having to be resigned at once. Instead, Darcy seemed very comfortable taking college players, allowing them to develop in college while you get a look at the guys in AHL. This makes a whole lot of sense, and really, it allows you to take some fliers on some guys with a lot of upside who just aren't there yet. It also conserves valuable coaching resources in developing the players who are in the AHL. It just makes a lot of sense and I hope this trend continues.
4) Defenders with a shot
If you look at all three defenders that were added--all three are thought to have above average shots from the point. The defenders who have been dealt--Leopold and Sekera, both have weak shots from the point. Clearly, this is an area that Darcy feels is important in today's game.
Overall Conclusion:
Darcy sees the winning formula as having size, intangibles and mobility needed to maintain puck possession. Goal scoring is slightly devalued although if a scorer of the right size and make up became available I don't think we would pass on him. We just aren't going to go out of our way to add goal scoring that is one dimensional, and comes in the under 6 foot variety.
Structurally, we are looking to have a relatively even mix of right and left handed defenders, and a mix of college and AHL prospects.
For this strategy to work, we have to:
1) Stick to it, and not start thinking we are "set" in the size and intangible strategy and revert back to old ways. It has to be a continual re-stocking of the shelves in terms of size and character. Because there will be busts; there will be guys who we can't sign for financial reasons, etc. If we have three first rounders next year and take three players like Tyler Ennis--I have to start questioning Darcy.
2) Hope that enough of our skill upside hits, like it did in Boston, so that instead of having any truly elite scorer, you have a deep roster of two way players and power forwards who all have some scoring ability as well. Again, if you stick to the model, the odds are that this will be the case.
3) Coaching to me, becomes key with this kind of team. It's not going to be about throwing the puck out there and having the skill take over. It's going to be about accountability, and playing together. You'd hope that drafting high character guys helps in that regard but especially given how many young players we are going to have--coaching is supremely important.
4) Hope that the NHL does not do things that seriously promote a more open, free flowing game with less clutching and grabbing because this is how a team full of skilled, fast finesse players can thrive and prevail over grittier opponents, and how things like size become less important.

Around this time of year, people exchange valentines. However, these hearts aren't the only ones filled with love. This year at North Pointe Elementary, as a service learning project, the fifth-grade students will sell candy grams and linking hearts to help children in need through the Josh Cares Foundation.
The Josh Cares Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to making sure that no critically ill child goes through hospitalization without the support and comfort they need. Did you know that at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital there are about 25 children at any given time without a family member there to support them? This is where Josh Cares steps in.
Josh Cares funds professionally trained child life specialists (nurses) who provide consistent comfort, care and companionship for children whose families are unable to be with them. For just $20, a child is provided an hour of one-on-one quality time with their assigned specialist.
To help support this foundation, the school is selling personalized candy grams for $1 each; and linking hearts for $5 donations. The candy grams will be delivered to any student and staff at North Pointe Elementary the week of Valentine's Day. The linking hearts will be displayed in the front lobby at North Pointe, each with the name of the person or company who is making the donation. Our goal is to have enough linking hearts in the front lobby to cover the entire trophy case, filling the lobby with lots of love.
If you are interested in learning more about the Josh Cares Foundation, visit website at www.joshcares.org.
Please make checks payable to "Josh Cares Foundation."
Please send any donations and orders to 875 North Bend Road, Hebron, Ky., 41048. If you have any questions, call the school at 859-334-7000.

Yates House Cooking Classes
Today, television provides cooking classes to the public nearly 24 hours each day. Of course, these classes are observational. Learning to perform the tasks of cooking by doing them "hands-on" is impossible. As is sitting down and enjoying food product of the class.
Yates House classes have always been participatory, hands-on affairs where small numbers of students prepare the menu under the guidance of Dixie Yates. Class members always eat. Full-meal classes are seated and served by Dixie and Conrad Yates.
Customized Classes
We arrange "Hands On" classes specifically for your group of two to six participants. Dixie will work with you to design an experience that meets your unique needs. Skill levels, interests/preferences, and time constraints matter for successful Cooking Class presentations. Classes are custom designed by Dixie Yates. Email inquiries to Dixie at firstname.lastname@example.com and she will work with you to arrange a class that will perfectly suit your group's needs. Please include information about your interests, skill levels, time constraints, and requested class dates.
Cooking Class Pricing
Prices vary according to Class Size, Food Prices, Time Spent (planning, preparing, class time), and price of guest room selected during your Yates House stay. Prices start at $100/person plus cost of Yates House room selected.
Dixie's Kitchen and Event Catering
In addition to bed and breakfast accommodations, Yates House also offers Missouri catering services. A kitchen and dining addition to the Garden House provides space for Dixie's Kitchen and Sun Room where award-winning breakfasts are served and small catered events, meetings, and cooking classes are held.
Dixie's gourmet kitchen is a well-known source of excellent food. The freshest ingredients she can find, including locally grown produce, eggs, cheese, meats, and herbs from her own gardens are used to create wonderful dishes you will never forget. Your meals are prepared at the Garden House and are not "off the truck", a pejorative which describes much pre-prepared food served by restaurants or caterers.
Let Yates House Cater Your Event
Our comfortable meeting facility will serve small groups up to twenty-six. We customize your menu to provide exactly the food you want without adding extras you don't want.
Full or light breakfast, lunch, or dinner. From hearty soup, sandwich, and salad meals up to gourmet extravaganzas. Contact us to get your event underway. We will work with you or your planner to provide the very best service possible.

3.1/5 rDev +6.2%
Appearance: Copper amber tone with a light colored cream head, this beer contains sparse lacing not much just specks scattered. Aroma: Great pumpkin pie aromatics very solid scent of cinnamon, pumpkin, and other cream infused spices. Taste: Flavor doesn't deliver as well as some pumpkin ales I've tried but this one is not bad, just the spicing is a bit cloying here I'd much rather enjoy another Post Road from Brooklyn brewing or even a Blue Moon much smoother and still delivers the pumpkin pie esque tones. Mouthfeel: Slightly creamy but carbonation is a bit high and overal mouthfeel seems a bit thin and textureless compared to other beers of this style. Drinkability: Decent worth a shot not a pick up a case type of beer but then again maybe not even a six pack beer I wish I could have another to taste it again but I probably won't be investing anymore money on this ale.

12oz brown bottle brewed by Pyramid Ales for Buffalo Bill's Brewery.
Fizzled head leads to almost no lacing at all. Orange haze show some bubbles racing to the top. The pumpkin and spice aroma are present with clove more in the front. Slick and crisp wet body. Spice is there for sure, suggestions of cinnamon and clove are easy to pick out. Bit of pumpkin flavor is layered on the dry and mono-tone maltiness. Minimal hops and a little watery in the semi-dry finish.
I have to wonder how different the bottle version is from the actual source. It has the bells and whistles for the style but the beer component struggles a bit.

Brewed by pyramid for these guys..
Pours a hazed amber with a slight white head. Hints of lacing & NO head retention, but efferevescent throughout
S: Nutmeg, cinamon & a little pumpkin
T: Cinamon & nutmeg with hints of canned pumkin up front. Some caramel & more spices as this warms. Finished a little dry with some more caramel & more spices & some pumpkin taste
MF: Light/medium bodied with lively carbonation
Drank pretty darn good for the style. I'm of the opnion that Pumpkin ales are better with more guts & abv for starters, so I'm suprised this scored as high as it did. This kicked the crap outta pumpkihead for sure. Try it, if you like this style, otherwise try it if your just curious like me, cheers!

I've always been fond of this particular brew, and have looked forward to it every fall. What's not to love about an ale style once homebrewed by George Washington?
Appearance: bright, burnished orange, looking like an autumn leaf,with a head that's slim, short, soon to depart.
Aroma: all yum, the very distillation of a fresh-baked pumpkin pie, scintillatingly spicy, vibrant, richly delicious and roasty.
Taste: nice, tasty texture, some small hoppiness, then fading....nice mouthfeel, swimming about the cavern of the senses, lip-smackingly tasty. Body is light to medium, but the flavor dominates and hides any thin-ness....for a while. Nicely spicey, though not too meaty.
It's a cute novelty, not as fantastic as I remember, but a nice treat once a year.

The original.
Poured from a bottle into a shaker pint glass. Beer is orange and has a slight haze to it. Froms a diffuse white broken head of small bubbles.
Aroma is cinnamon and allspice.
Beer is thin and has almost no bitterness at all. Spices up front, carbonation in the mouth is fine. Drinkability is moderate, not really my favorite even pumpkin beer. I don't think I would drink it again.

not my favorite of the pumpkin beers. this one pours a little cloudy with a nice autumn color palate. smell is spice heavy, maybe cloves and nutmeg. i dont smell the pumpkin itself really. taste is again strong on the spice front, with a balanced malt body in the medium range. good in the fall, but there are much better ones out there.

The beer pours a hazy dark gold color with a thick frothy white head that slowly fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a mild pumpkin scent along with the usual cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. The taste is decent. It has a unique flavor that I'm not sure is good or bad. It has a decent pumpkin taste, but the spices are screwed up. There is an intense clove flavor that really sticks out. The mouthfeel is fine. It is a medium bodied beer with adequate/good carbonation. This is a decent drinking pumpkin ale. If they get the spices figured out, this could be something to look forward to each year. As it stands, I'll pass next year.

The beer pours an orange color with a small white head. The aroma is grain and cinnamon, with a few other assorted spices thrown in. The flavor is similar. I get a lot of nutmeg and cinnamon notes, as well as a hint of cinnamon. Overall, the beer is lacking in the aroma and flavor and doesn't stand up to the better pumpkin beers. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a Duvel tulip.
a - Pours a murky amber color with one finger of fluffy white head and light carbonation evident.
s - Smells of light pumpkins, spices, wheat, grain, and bready malts. Not a lot of pumpkin or spice; not a fan of the smell.
t - Tastes of bready malts, grain, light light pumpkin, and light spices. Slightly better than the smell.
m - Medium body and high carbonation.
d - Not a very good pumpkin ale. Thought the smell was lacking spices and pumpkin, and the taste had very little. Would not want to have again.

1.3/5 rDev -55.5%
Pours copper/orange with plenty of clarity. A white foamy head descends to a disappearing thin cover.
The smell and taste are of pumpkin puree. Metallic and funky. Spicy in a medicinal/herbal way with a near-ridiculous amount of nutmeg. Pumpkin comes through in an artificial-fruit way. Some Band-Aids in the finish.
Yikes - this is awful...no "beer quality" and hardly any pumpkin pie flavor.
It's rather thin with quite a bit of carbonation that helps wipe away the flavor. Normally, that's not a good thing, but I find myself being grateful in this case.
Nasty stuff here. It's the "original" that has been outdone by many. Pass on this one - a medicinal/herbal mess.

This beer is a copper orange color and pours with a cream colored thin head. It smells strongly of pie spices, strong nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice aromas. Quite a dry beer, not much sweetness at all. The spices in the beer are mostly evident as an aroma as one is tasting, though they also come through a bit in the finish. A fairly light beer, which is basically a vehicle for the pumpkin pie spices. The spices seem to add a bit of astringency in the finish.

Large head of big bubbles that dies very quickly, leaving no spots. Chill hazed of dark gold with an orange hue.
Toasted malt and roasted pumpkin to the nose. Light alcohol.
Very thin body with a pop-like carbonation. The flavor is also thin. There is a watery orange flavor (no sugar). No lasting aftertaste. Generally speaking, this is a weak beer with a touch of pumpkin flavor.

12 oz. bottle, with an autumnal picture of a harvest pumpkin on the cover/label,
A: Pours a nice, cloudy, orange colour, but after the initial head is nice, it quickly dissipates to a no head brew, no lacing at all, a bit disappointing, but not terrible.
S: Very nice, smelled of fresh pumpkin and pumpkin pie, the smells of autumn, with some nice nutmeg, cinnamon, and mace, love that nutmeg, I'm a sucker for that spice, it just smells like the holiday season for me, the first pumpkin ale of the season just brings on that feeling for me, wow, the summer went fast.
T: Pretty much the same as the smell, not as tasty as pumpkin pie, but few things are, the spice flavour is even more overt in the taste than in the smell, the taste is basically dominated by spice, though I can taste the pumpkin notes that are there.
M: Surprisingly light, almost feels like a fall-seasonal style pumpkin soda, very spritzy, the mouthfeel could certainly be beefed up a bit.
D: Easy to drink, a tasty beer, would be great for a Halloween party, a few tweaks could make this beer great, it almost feels like a rough draft, a first brewing for what could be a really spectacular beer, still it is a fun beer to drink, it really goes for this pumpkin spice flavour, which I feel is different from a lot of the pumpkin ales out there which taste like an amber ale, mixed with a bit of pumpkin spice, so this is something that I will continue to buy each October that it comes out.

11/02/04- Purchased at the brewery in Hayward, CA
Appearance- Pours with a nice thick creamy white head that lasts a bit. A orange amber color tint to the beer with a tad of lacing in the mix/
Smell- Spices all day long. Smells like....hmmm, PUMPKIN! Imagine that. Lots of spicyness to the nose. Ginger and loads of pumpkin. Maybe some woody-malt smell lingers in there also.
Taste- A nice spicy ginger taste to it. Pumpkin with alcohol tossed in. What a novel concept. A nice beer while sitting in the living room with the candles lit and Monday night football on the screen.
Mouthfeel- A nice touch of carbonation. Spicies everywhere sloshing around on your pallet.
Drinkability- Not a beer that you would drink on a daily basis, but a nice beer to consume during the fall/winter months. A very nice pumpkin taste. I enjoyed this beer. This is the only pumpkin style beer I have had, so maybe there are better ones around. Assuming there are since this one doesn't get that great marks. Will search out some others.

Clear amber-yellowbrew, perfectly clear. Thin white head of foamy bubbles. Minimal carbonation. No lacing. it's a bit insipid looking.
Allspice, nutmeg and clove character on the nose, but it's sickly and overdone. Overpowered by the added cloves. Way, way too much, ends up like a big bag of cloves.
Ridiculously thin body with almost no flavour. Like Budweiser with the flavour turned down, with only a lingering final hint of cloves. Very little character, almost nothing to it. Mouthfeel is as thin as anorexic water.
What the hell is this? Pumpkin is a rich, sweet creamy flavour. Pumpkin with pie spices even more so. This is watery insipid and bland. I said some even more flagrant things in my original review - suffice it to say I was incredibly disappointed with my first example of Pumpkin Ale.

Had a bottle on Halloween. Poured a hazy amber with a short head. The beer starts out with a big pumpkin pie flavor, heavy on the spice, with a slight sourdough tang in the background. The body is light-medium but the balance between the spices and malt are off, leaving an small, unpleasant tang in the aftertaste. Not bad, but there are better pumpkin options.

A: Pours a hazy pale golden orange in color with light amounts of gentle visible carbonation along the surface of the beer and some golden yellow + peach highlights. The beer has a finger tall foamy beige head that reduces to a mottled thin film covering the entire surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Light to moderate aromas of pumpkin pie spices (cinnamon and nutmeg specifically) and hints of pumpkin.
T: Moderate flavors of pumpkin pie spices (cinnamon and nutmeg) over the top of some light caramel malts flavors with a hint of sweetness. There is a very light hint of pumpkin towards the finish.
M: Light bodied with slightly heavier than moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly thin/watery.
O: The beer is easy to drink but there are a lot of more interesting and more complex pumpkin ales available with more pumpkin flavors. I probably would not grab this one again but I would not suggest avoiding it.

(Served in an American pint glass)
A-This beer pours a crystal clear body that is warm orangish-brown with a creamy very light tan head. Strong carbonation of tiny bubbles.
S- The bold smell of fresh ginger is the first and strongest of the spices. A little allspice and cloves with a hint of cinnamon hidden in the background.
T-The taste of fresh cinnamon bark right off the tree really pops out. Faint notes of cloves and allspice are blended in but much fainter. No real notes of hops or malt can get through the spices.
M-Medium mouthfeel with no astringency or alcohol warmth
D- Even thought the spices are big and bold and out shadow the flavors characteristic of beer, I enjoyed it. The ginger aroma and the cinnamon taste really kind of work together. I don't think I can drink any more of this one but I it makes me want to try a pumpkin beer that has a good balance of pumpkin spice and hops, malt or alcohol. This could be the "gate-way" pumpkin beer.

This one is a hazy orange/red brew.
This has a pleasant pumpkin pie spice aroma. I can't really smell any pumpkin, but there is a nice malt and caramel smell.
The taste is very much like pumpkin pie. The spices come out very nicely with just a hint of caramelized sugar. Surprisingly this beer isn't really sweet.
Mouthfeel is good.
Drinkable, but this is a specialty brew.

Where/how do you dry your pots? How far away is your kiln?
There's quite a lot of shelf space dotted around but I'd need to take a pic from the side to show them.
the kiln is in the top photo in the rear on the right. Not sure, but I think that is a wheel with a splash pan next to it in the center.I see pots drying on the left in the lower photo. It is raining on the windows.looks like quite a few projects happening as well.
Yes, my kiln is there, close to the wheel , and there's another one, (my old one) under the table with the pots on.
I've usually got something going on.
I'll be working on making some improved versions (plenty of room for it) of these next.

Reims to win by one goal
i have to look for value in this game. 2.20tish is good but due ti unpredictability of France 2 the 3.75 for the most common result is gold imo.
Reims the surprise package in French Ligue 2, playing well above expectations and they made their home ground a fortress where even better clubs had much problems to win. Today they miss only their full back regular Sekkat.
Sedan almost full, but one has to bear in mind they sold their influental defender Lautoa to Lorient and fail to bring in adequate replacement still haunts them a bit.
Its not a straightforward game at all, Sedan do posses a strong squad and many believed prior to the season, they would be much higher on the table as they now are, so they are opposite to Reims and underachieving.
-0.25 pays around 1.90 and is probably the best recomended bet in my all honesty, but as said, 3.75 is good as i do believe the game would be even and one goal could very well decide it.

This is Josh Llopez, wrestling for the Maryland Renegades wrestling club in the NWCA National Duals in Virginia Beach earlier this year. While in season, Llopez wrestles in the 170 pound weight class, but this match took place up at either 182 or 195 pounds.
When I first saw this cartwheel to a double leg sequence, I figured that Llopez was simply showboating. After repeated viewings, however, I realized that the acrobatic maneuver represents an ingenious set up for a takedown. Llopez transitions seamlessly from the impressive tumbling technique to the shot. The cartwheel circumvents the defending wrestler's head/hands defense, and leaves Llopez in impeccable position, with his level lowered and head already on the hip. Llopez then wastes no time, grabbing his competitors legs, and powering through to finish the double.
Though I've been aware of Llopez for a while, I have only actually seen him wrestle a couple times. Before watching this clip, I knew he was one of the nation's top high school wrestlers, but I had no idea he possessed this level of athleticism. Llopez just finished his prep career as Intermat's number 40 overall wrestling recruit in the nation, and competed out of Leonardtown Maryland's St. Mary's Ryken High School. Next year he will take his impressive array of skills to the University of Maryland and the Big Ten Conference.

Pours orange-brown with a short, rocky white head. Dense aroma of resin, oranges, bread, and pineapple. Big flavor. Lots of mango, pineapple, grapefruit, and resin. Something else that is very funky. Kind of a caramel, candi-sugar, yeasty kick that gives it a Belgian quality for about a second or so, then its back to the hop assault. A very good beer that is not like their other offerings in the category.

A: Very little head retention, golden/orangish in color.
S: Very piney/citrus hopbomb

got this one in a recent trade with jac5084. thanks josh!
22oz bottle. sampled dec 9/08.
pours a hazy orangey amber colour with a small layer of very fine white bubbles. the head quickly drops to a thin ring around the glass that leaves a few spots of lace on the way down.
aroma is great. big hoppy blast. grapefruit, orange, tangerine. bit of pine. some tropical fruit too - pineapple, mango, papaya. light caramel. crackers and white bread. no real trace of the alcohol, just big juicy hops and a solid caramel+malt base.
taste is good. there's that alcohol i was expecting, warming things up nicely. solid medium-high bitterness level. juicy citrus hops again - grapefruit, orange, tangerine, with a little less from the tropical side than in the aroma. nice resiny/piney hop bitterness too. whole wheat bread. crackers. light caramel sweetness.
mouthfeel is great. medium-low carbonation level. medium body. silky smooth.
drinkability is good. this is a tasty and well balanced dipa. i had a slight fear that this one might have faded, having been released in the summer, but i'm not noticing much difference between this bottle today and when i had this on tap in california over labour day weekend. great stuff that has held up very well. can i have another?

Excellent DIPA with a wonderfully oily citrus hop flavor. This beer's main failing was that it was almost impossible to produce a head of any size. I was a bit put off by that, but it's such a good beer otherwise that all is forgiven. The color was very nice, somewhere between a dusky amber and burnt orange. Those are funny descriptors but it's hard to precisely describe the color of good beer.
The smell was oily and sweet with a ton of bitter grapefruit. You know that you're getting a San Diego-style DIPA from the moment it gets near you. It's a strong smell even for the style. The taste is similar and also very pleasing. It's like grapefruit rind and sweet caramel. It's so sweet and sour that you almost get a green apple flavor off it (I mean that in a good way and not the chemically off note of some beers). There's some pretty good puckery aftertaste and the feel is wonderfully oily and rich. I love these DIPAs for just this hop oil flavor and feel. This beer particularly succeeds in this department and comes away as an immensely drinkable entry, as long as you're into huge hop flavors.

Received the 22oz bomber in a trade.
Appearance: Pours a fairly transparent orange with honey edges. 1 finger off white head with minimal retention and minimal lacing.
Smell: Caramel Malt, Floral Hops, Slight Alcohol tinge. I can tell this one is going in the DIPA direction I don't prefer.
Taste: Same as the nose. Great if you like your DIPA's to have a strong caramel malt backbone. A bit too malty for my personal preference.
Mouthfeel: A bit syrup like and medium to thick bodied. Carbonation is a bit lacking and brew is a touch chewy.
Drinkability: A bit too thick and syrupy to get a good drinkabiliity rating.

Pours a very cloudy orange with floaties. There's a bit of white, soapy head that leaves a good bit of lacing on the side of my glass.
Aroma is exceptional. Very bready, with tons of bitter, harsh hops that are carried by undertones of caramel and cane sugar. The hop character is very complex. There must be at least 4 or 5 different hops in here. There's everything from christmas tree to lemon. Pick the entire spectrum of hop aromas.. it's here. Oh and a bit of alcohol.
Flavor has some sweet sugary notes, but is overwhelmed by the grapefruit peel and christmas tree. the hops are excellent, but not quite what was suggested in the nose.
Mouthfeel is low carbonation, smooth, relatively light, and a clean, syrupy, and lightly astringent finish.
You could slam much of this. Too bad it's limited. Sigh. Delicious. Drink it soon if you can. It seems to be at its peak as an IPA.

Thanks to Joey at South Bay for this brew.
22oz. brown bomber poured into an imperial pint.
A: Coppery, rusty pour. Good head and decent retention. Some hoppy lacing.
S: Loads of citrus, as expected. A great pineapple taste that I love. Sweet malts, bready but a bit chewy.
T/M: A good bitterness level. Big on the pineapple again but with added grapefruit. Super sweet malts. Lighter body is nice in this DIPA. Loads of bitterness through the finish.
D: ABV is up there but this drinks pretty good.

Bottle from the Belgian Cafe, Philadelphia, PA.
Pours a dark hazy amber orange with a thick oof white foam head. Very hoppy aroma with nice malty balance as well as citrus peel and pine. An explosion of hops with bitterness lasting throughout. Malty backbone provides excellent balance. Hints of grapefruit and other citrus fruit. Somewhat sweet with a nice alcohol presence and bitter dry finish.

S: Piney hops with lots of citrus.
T: Sweet sticky malt with a big wallop of hops. Grapefruit, orange and candied citrus.
M: Chewy, thick, viscous, with very little carbonation.

A- Pours a hazy orange color with a nice froathy tan colored head after a hard pour at first there was pretty much no head. The head left a nice amount of layered lacing down the sides.
S- Piney hops jumped right at me on this one. Could also pick up some alcohol, citrus and some caramel malts.
T- Very good brew. Follows the nose pretty well. Quite a bit of hops up front followed up by some malts that add a bit of balance to this brew.
M- Medium body and carbonation. Maybe a little chewy but feels right on.
D- Very drinkable and highly recommended.

Pours a nice cloudy burnt orage, with a small tanish head that satys well and laces great.
Aroma is subtle floral hops and aromatic caramel malts
Taste has a touch of warmth from the alcohol and a nice sweet floral hop flavor as well as the caramel and biscuit malts. Pretty well balance DIPA.
mouthfeel is smooth and well carbonated. This is a very good beer, and I could easily enjoy one ever so often.

Poured from a 22oz bottle into a mug glass.
A: The beer is a murky orange/amber color with a large off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is of piney hops, caramelized malts and fruity citrus.
T: The taste starts with a strong burst of floral hops bitterness that stays dominant. There are sweet flavors of caramel and citrus that quickly follow and a hearty malt character provides a decent balance. There's a pretty significant alcohol sting that makes the beer seem a little boozy. The after-taste is slightly bitter.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, slightly sticky finish.
D: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, strong kick, good representation of style, it's a decent beer, but definitely not the first 2IPA I'd go after.

Poured a medium and hazy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of pine, citrus, and some tropical fruitiness. 'Juicy'. Tastes of citrus, pine, same fruitiness, and some maltiness. Some spiciness in the tastes as well. Medium alcohol finish.

Picked this one up when I was in Philly and decided that the beer would be good for a half of Thursday night football, bomber should suffice.
Poured into Flying Fish tulip glass.
Label and bottle: 6/10
A: Shiny gold color, clear orange. The head with a pretty loose pour didnt amount to much. Lacing- nil.
S: Hops, piney tree hops. Not much sweetness and even from the bottle itself its just a smacking of hops right to the back of your nose and to the brain. Should infuse this into a car deodorizer.
T: If you could drink an evergreen, Id imagine this is what it would taste like out of the food processor. The alcohol burn is beatingly present yet the sweetness which should be robin to the hops batman is not there. The hops dont come across as fresh but again, raw pine.
Given the alcohol, I hesitate to say that the sugars need to be amped up to balance the hops but something in the contsruction needs tweaking.
A rare beer that is brash in terms of both the heat and the hops. Some may love it but I thought it became something of a chore to finish.
M: Dry and somewhat thin. Too dry.
D: This was perhaps overly bitter and piney for me with a painful alcohol tinge, not the most warming. Its a little much on the taste buds and I love the West coast hops as much as the next guy, but hopefully year 3 will yield better results.
Not the best. After swearing as I drank this that it seemed stronger than 8%, the bottle indeed listed it just under 10%, makes more sense. The buzz isnt hidden.

Long story short, this is a less robust version of the might hop 15... where the grapefruit, citrus, pine, floral, grass aroma of the 15 hop varieties of the hop15 bangs you in the forehead, this double ipa offering from pizza port is much more subdued... this is a solid beer that provides a more mellow double ipa profile...
the ipa family of beers from pizza port never disappoints... hop15, high tide, 2nd anniversary, and wipe out all do the trick and represent a nice representation on the spectrum of western styled ipas

Picked up a bomber at AJ's in late September for $7.39.
Beer poured a hazt amber-orange with very little head. Nose was heavy on citrus hops initially but becomes malty the longer it sits. Taste was very malty and sweet with a big alcohol burn on the first sip. Finishes with a hop slickness on the palate. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and decently carbonated to keep it lively on the palate. Overall drinkability is pretty good but it is a bit unbalanced with a bit too much alcohol for the style.

Thanks to mikesgroove for this one.
Pours a nice amber orange color. Clear with a stark white head that lingers a little, but not too long and leaves good lacing on the way down.
Nose is maltier than expected, but this one does have a few months of age on it. Hops are surely present though, with west coast grapefruit action and some grassy notes.
Hmmm. A little too malty for my taste. Thick sweetness starts this one off. The hops do come around mid taste, but this one is way unbalanced to the malt side of things. Some grassy and grapefruit hops do make their presence known on the finish and in the aftertaste. Really the sweet malt that dominates here though.
Mouthfeel is a bit too thick here, but it should be quite viscous at this abv. Undercarbonated but not disasterously.
Drinkability is hampered quite a bit by the sweetness and the off carbonation. The abv is pretty apparent as well.
Overall a decent DIPA on the sweet side of things, but really a slight dissapointment from the folks over at port. They make some of the best DIPAs around, but this one is off the mark for me. Way too malty without the necessary hops to balance it out. An ok beer, but i think port could have done much better for an anniversary brew.

Got this in a trade with Mikereaser. Thanks Mike!
A- Body is a quite foggy, medium, rusty amber hue. Pours with a nice 2 finger foamy white head that eventually subsides to a thin collar. Very little lacing is left behind in the glass.
S- Nose is full of piny hops. Behind this is a hint of alcohol and sweet caramel malt.
T- Lots of piny and earthy hop flavors upfront with a very faint malt backbone. The pine flavors really come through for the finish as well as a big grapefruit flavor and a hint of caramel sweetness to keep things in check. A whole lot of piny bitterness, resiny bitterness, piny hop flavor, and a hint of alcohol warmth linger on. The overall flavor of this beer reminds me of the picture of the cactus on the bottle.
M- Medium carbonation and a body with a lot of smooth hop oils and hints of phenols present.
D-This is a nice DIPA and it was a great opportunity to try it. The ABV is somewhat detectable and this is a slow-sipper because of the flavor intensity anyway. Its still a very enjoyable and good DIPA though.

Clear amber colored ale nearing red in color with a tall light tan colored head.
Strong hop aroma lots of pine and grapefruit aroma chock full of Northwest Hop bouquet. Malt is not totally obscured and a bit of garlic scent is present. This is a bit spicy but really no complexities beyond very strong hops.
The taste starts out sweet with a strong melon flavor. Garlic and onion flavors emerge giving this a savory flavor like an onion roll. Yep mostly melon, garlic and onion plus some sweet malt, grapefruit and pine are mostly missing. Alcohol is very apparent as this warms.
Mouthfeel is good and full.
Drinkability is going to depend on your appreciation of the more rare flavors hops can provide namely onion and garlic. I'm a hophead so I like it but not everyone likes garlic and onion in a beer.

A: This beer poured a cloudy orange/pumpkin color. It was also totally flat. Probably the worst looking beer I've poured. Was thinking it may be a drain pour.
S: The aroma was a bit better. Hops and citrus were the main smells. There was also a hint of sourness.
T: My mistake, this is absolutely not a drain pour. It has a big hop flavor with a nice malty sweet backbone. The alcohol is noticeable, but smooth. This beer is very well balanced.
M: This beer is full bodied with a hint of an alcohol burn. There is a residual slickness from this brew.
D: This is one smooth and easy drinking DIPA. Not sure why this bottle was flat, but it was still a delight.

A - The beer pours a copper orange. I got less than a finger of head from an aggressive pour. It looks very viscous, kind of like a barleywine.
S - The beer smells of resin, pine, and citrus. Lots of grapefruit. There is a sweetness that cuts through the hops, suggesting a malty base.
T - This one is kind of all over the place. Very much like the smell, but boozy. This tastes like a barleywine to me.
M - Medium bodied, but very viscous. Somewhat sticky. The beer is very under carbonated.
D - The beer tastes like Dreadnaught gone wrong. Good try, but not quite there.

Bomber to glass....
Slightly darker than usual IPA. Medium caramel color. Nice head.
Smells of hops; good hop profile. Flavor is even stronger. Malts make an appearance, but just a cameo. Nice punch. I like it. Hoppy enough to be a sipper.
Gets better with every sip and every sip gets bigger so we're talking exponential goodness growth. Plus a very generous 9.5% thank you very much.
Overall: happy anniversary Port

Happy Anniversary, ok I'm a little late. Pours a copper color with a dark orange hue. Moderate haze. A good pour leaves a big frothy head. Good retention and lacing through the tasting.
The nose has a nice blend hop aroma. The hops have a mix of floral, citrus and piney notes. Well present and distinct. The malt is blended nicely but does play second to the hoppy aromas. Clean yeast notes, but I could pick out some bubblegum esters in the background.
The taste is balanced very well. The hops come out stronger than the malt with a more piney flavor. The citrus and floral do come out as well but are limited versus the pine notes. The bitterness lingers into the finish and is a bit astringent. The malt comes out nicely and has a decent balance. Some minor caramel and Munich notes. The yeast is a bit more noticeable. Some yeasty flavors and some minor rose and bubblegum esters, but not over the top. Some alcohol as well, but good for the ABV.
The body is closer to moderate than light. Very easy drinking. Some astringency is a bit of a deterrent but a nice example of a west coast DIPA.

We've lamented the downward spiral of Doctor Who's general quality here before, but one thing that's annoyed me throughout Moffat's run is his treatment of religious institutions. More specifically, I'm talking about the fictional Church of the Papal Mainframe, which, it seems, he created more as a foil to the Doctor than as any sort of genuine religious organization.

Why Authentic Representation Matters: Black Women in Science Fiction
One of the most common criticisms we at Lady Geek Girl and Friends have of geeky media concerns a lack of representation in our books, films, and TV shows. So why, exactly, is it so important to have diversity in our geek media? Why does authentic representation matter so much? Is it enough to simply have diverse characters on our screens, or is there something more? In order to dive into these questions a little more deeply, let's take a look at how one group, Black women, are represented in geek media. Continue reading
Oh, My Pop Culture Jesus: Nuns in Geek Culture
Geek culture really has a thing for nuns. Specifically, Christian (mostly Roman Catholic) women who have made vows to live in community with one another in order to pray and do good works while living a chaste, simple lifestyle. But geek culture doesn't like nuns for the right reasons. Whenever nuns pop up in geek media, they almost always function as some kind of trope-filled plot device. They look more like the writer's idea of what a nun is, and less like real nuns. If nuns were depicted accurately, they'd be a great source for feminist characters and plotlines.
Oh, My Pop Culture Religion: The Power of Belief
Belief is a funny thing. When most people talk about belief, they're usually taking about believing in things that are intangible; things like religion, a cause, or a greater good. Belief is often closely tied to faith. It's a bit strange to talk about belief in terms of something we can touch or measure, because that kind of belief requires a simple glance over the evidence staring us in the face. It doesn't really take any effort on our part to agree that something is true when a scientist or other expert has done all the work for us. The more interesting kind of belief requires some component of faith. A large part of faith is believing in something greater than oneself. This sort of belief is crucial to some of the most popular stories in fantasy and science fiction, from Peter Pan to Doctor Who to Serenity to The Hunger Games. It's this kind of faith in something greater than oneself that gives true power to the characters in these works.
Spoilers for all three Hunger Games books, Doctor Who, and Serenity below.
Doctor Who Gets a New Companion
If you haven't heard the news yet, consider yourself informed: there will be a new face in the TARDIS when Doctor Who returns this fall, and I don't mean just Capaldi.
Actor Samuel Anderson will be joining the regular cast as Danny Pink, a fellow teacher at the Coal Hill School and a coworker of Clara's. Anderson has been in a ton of British television shows that I've never seen or heard of, but fan reception of his acting seems to be positive. Anyway, I have a lot of feelings about this announcement, so let's get right into it. Continue reading
Top 20 Romantic Couples in Geekdom (10 Canon/10 Fanon): 2014 Edition
This Valentine's Day, as all Valentine's Days, will not succeed in bringing our city down. This Valentine's Day, as all Valentine's Days, will soon recede into painful memory, fading with time, until another foul Valentine's Day is upon us again.
—Welcome to Night Vale, "Valentine"
It's that time of year again, nerd friends. That awful time of year known as Valentine's Day. Once a year, before Valentine's Day, our authors nominate and then vote on ships for our Top 20 Romantic Couples in Geekdom (10 Canon/10 Fanon) list. It is during this time that the LGG&F writers go from peaceful coexistence straight into full-blown anarchy as each writer battles for their favorite ships to make the list.
So now, blood-stained and bruised, it is my job as Supreme Overlord of LGG&F to bring you this year's Top 20 Romantic Couples in Geekdom.
Oh, My Pop Culture Religion: Steven Moffat, the New Feminist
Few people inspire more division and frustration in the geek world than Steven Moffat. Showrunner of Doctor Who and co-creator of BBC's Sherlock, Moffat's storylines and female characters have attracted plenty of accusations of misogyny. But Moffat refuses to acknowledge any problems with the way he handles his shows. It's abundantly clear that he believes he's a feminist… and I think he might be right. Although he probably doesn't know it, I believe Moffat is a New Feminist. New Feminism is a flavor of feminism popular among many religious conservatives, arising from a supposedly "biblical" view of the sexes.

A Eulogy for Eleven
This time next week, Matt Smith will no longer be the Doctor. It's an event that all Whovians have been either dreading or counting down to ever since he announced he wasn't coming back.
And as excited as we are that Peter Capaldi will be jumping on to usher in the Twelfth Doctor's reign, I think it's only fair to look at the good and bad things that happened while Eleven reigned supreme.
Spoiler Warning: Up to and including "The Day of the Doctor"
Doctor Who? Your Guide to the Newest Doctor
After a long wait, we now know that the next Doctor is Peter Capaldi! Yeah, I wanted a non-white, non-male Doctor too, but Moffat's said that Capaldi was the only actor he auditioned for the role, so as long as we've got Moffat on board I suppose the Doctor will always be white and male. As white male choices go, though, I think Capaldi was a great one. For those of you who don't know, Capaldi is a 55-year-old actor most known for his role as Malcolm Tucker in the British political satire The Thick of It and its spinoff In the Loop. Like David Tennant, he's Scottish; unlike Tennant, he'll get to keep his accent as the Doctor. Capaldi is a huge Doctor Who fan and is delighted to step into the Doctor's sizable shoes, and I think Capaldi's going to bring a very different sort of energy to the role. Not gonna lie, I'm a massive fan of his. Let me tell you why.
In Brightest Day: Amnesia in "Day of the Doctor"
This is going to probably be my last Doctor Who post until the Christmas special. However, before I retire for a couple weeks, I want to discuss the end of "Day of the Doctor". If you haven't watched the episode yet, note that there are spoilers for that specific episode.

TYLER (TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH) - The communications manager for the East Texas Medical Center dispatch in Tyler said the operation in Tyler dispatched the ETMC response to the West explosion. Chad Richey said that about 7:45 p.m. they received a call from the West EMS to respond. A total of 15 emergency vehicles were sent from ETMC -- 12 from Waco and three from Ennis were sent to West. The ETMC EMS dispatch covers a 17,000 square-mile area."We were primed and ready to go," Richey said, noting they do drills to prepare for this kind of disaster.They saw lots of burn victims, people with respiratory problems and some people with crush injuries, he said.They transported to various hospitals 14 critical patients, also known as "red" patients; 30 considered "yellow" who suffered injuries such as broken bones; and 47 "green" level patients, who are considered to be "walking wounded."Ten of those went by helicopter to hospitals in Dallas, Temple and Waco. This morning ETMC dispatch had eight personnel on duty, which is normal, and three to four of those were dedicated to coordination for the West event. Now there is one on the West situation, Richey said. All the ETMC personnel are accounted for. However, Richey said there were four EMS personnel from West who were deceased.

Ventura College Clothesline Project shines light on domestic violence
The Ventura College Psychology Club's Clothesline Project always has been a powerful experience, with its raw messages of domestic and other violence written on T-shirts hung around the campus.
But this year, the event on Wednesday became even more relevant by the Penn State scandal in which a former assistant football coach is accused of abusing children.
"Men have been helping out more this year," said Lucy Capuano Brewer, the club's faculty adviser. "They are speaking out. People are aware that it's more than just women who have been victims. Boys and men are, too."
Capuano Brewer said the event offers information and referral booths set among hundreds of brightly colored T-shirts. People were encouraged to write messages detailing their abuse experiences on the shirts. She said the Clothesline Break the Silence, End the Violence event, now in its 12th year, gets no money from the college and is supported by volunteer efforts.
"Some have given money, but there has been no support from anybody but the students," Capuano Brewer said.
Tara Darling, club president, said she and other members arrived at 7 a.m. to hang the more than 500 T-shirts. She noticed in increase in males asking to create a T-shirt.
"Today so far, people have made 100 or more," she said. "I have noticed a lot of guys are making shirts for the first time."
With such chilling messages as "This is for Kali, who was raped and murdered by someone she didn't know," students stopped and read the shirts, some becoming moved.
Victor Alvarado of Oxnard, a student, said while he was unaware of the Penn State scandal, he thought creating the T-shirts was a great idea.
"I think it's good. It shows people the students' side, and they can share what happened to them," he said.
Suzy Schutz of the Pacific Pride Foundation spoke about some of the issues she and others who are gay face.
"People in the LGBT community are perceived as vulnerable to harassment," she told students.
Speaking about the Penn State scandal and some of the comments that have been made blaming the incident on homosexuality, Schutz said the issue has nothing to do with being gay.
"This is child molestation," she said.
Schutz said she heard Jerry Sandusky, the man who is accused of raping boys in the Penn State locker rooms, defended himself on television.
"He kept saying it was horseplay. If it were horseplay with girls, people would have a different reaction," Schutz said.
Timothy Ward, president of the Ventura College Gay-Straight Alliance, also spoke to students, saying the organization is planning a transgender day of remembrance. He said the most chilling aspect of the Penn State scandal was the attempt to brush the matter aside.
"I think it's terrible that people would cover up," he said. "I can't believe that adults would look at them and let their aspirations for their jobs be more important."
In addition to Ward and Schutz, students heard from a victim advocate from the Ventura County District Attorney's Office, a representative of Interface Children and Family Services, and attorney John Negley Jr., who spoke about domestic violence.
There also were booths, including from Planned Parenthood, the UCLA Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center and the California Lutheran University Intimate Partner Violence Intervention Program.
Jenna Knauss staffed the CLU booth.
"We've been able to connect with quite a few young adults who are recognizing that they might be in an abusive relationship, and we are beginning the intake process," she said. "For a lot of people, the first step is recognizing that they are in an abusive relationship."
Capuano Brewer said the recent news events show the Clothesline Project is needed now more than ever.
"We actually have people contacting us. They know we hold this every year," she said. "Word is getting out. Because of the media, it's in everybody's mind-set."
