Celebrating the Green!!

So, I needed new running sunglasses and low and behold when I typed that into Google, the Goodr brand came up. I've had Oakleys and even prescription Costas, but for the price point, fit and wear-ability these can't be beat. I first got the Silverback Squat Mobility last summer. They swear no-slip grip but still comfortable and follow through with that. I enjoyed those so much I picked up these limited sunnies with gold polarized lenses and they are fantastic! Grab a pair today, they're TnDC/Beat-12 approved. (forgot to hit publish on this one 4/5/23 😖)

10th Annual Ocean Sate Homebrew Competition

 

There's nothing like the anticipation of a big comp results. 443 entries (13 in wood-aged) where Reinke's Revenge 2022 CoVid edition Gamma variant fought it out with a 41! Which makes me think that the scores for the others must have been stellar to garner 1st and 2nd. Notes included backing off the Amburana contact for a bit, which I figured myself. TaD eked out a 27 on low phenolics, banana and clove which I figured probably happened after over pitching healthy yeast. Entered Quit That Putin! in pale ale and both judges said it was mis-classified and should've been a Belgian pale ale. All I can say is that the smallest state put on a well-run huge comp for only it's 10th year and as hard as it was to medal in, I'm not entering again!
