Hi. Welcome!
Please let me start by saying I am still trying to shape what this newsletter is, so bare with me.
To put it as simply as I can: I’m trying to provide a space for a person that enjoys the art of drinking good beer - that sounds more pretentious than I mean it to be.😆
I feel like I got myself in a rut with what I post here - a filtering what Beer Twitter is talking about and then putting that here.
It’s okay but it’s boring me and it’s not what I want D&T or my blog to be. I am not saying I will drop it all together, but it feels lazy and not unique enough so you’ll probably see less of it.
What I am trying to say is Drinking & Thinking isn’t quite where I want it to be, but it’s getting there? I am adjusting. Trying to get the right grain and hop-bill combo, or something.
Hopefully it doesn’t get too annoying and you can hang around.
Drinking & Thinking Prompts
I am starting a new dorky segment. Just some prompts or activities you may want to try while relaxing and having your beers. Most of the time you can do these by yourself - but if you have someone around to join you, all the better.
Read your local paper with a beer. OLD DUDE ALERT 🚨 yep, I do this on Sunday afternoons (when I can). Or read a book or magazine or whatever, man.
Play a board game. We play a lot of Sorry around here, and it’s usually better with a beer. I got a Back To The Future board game recently that I really need to crack open.
Stare at a spot. A little weird I know, sit at one of your favorite spots around your place, with your beers. Take like, 5 or 10 minutes and really give a good look at a section of your view. You might be surprised that you see something you have never seen before.
Banger Beer Of The Week
Dude. When you take Mosaic and put it in the hands of a skilled WCIPA brewer, it’s usually my favorite beer. Magnum PSI has all the things. A well made, clean, West Coast DIPA with a solid name and good label.
Liquid Gravity is doing a fine job over there on the coast.
Tom would approve. In fact, now have I have to hear the theme song 🎶:
That Is It
Sorry for the late posting. The egoistical crisis about the newsletter and working my day job all week and weekend, caused the delay.
Have a fun and safe week with your beers and thank you for the read!

Peace ✌️ Beer 🍻 & Metal 🤘
Hi Mikey, I love that you’re in revamping mode. Just so you know it’s only bothering you, as a reader, I’m cool with whatever. Btw, as my kids are getting older and their homework is getting harder, I’ve found that helping now requires a refreshing beverage to help me through it. Hehe, have a great week!! Cheers 🍻
