Friends, this weekend we brew our first dark brau* and good ‘ol Captain Beer is fired up about it. Our Belgian Wit came out wild and great, because we took the recipe and went nuts. This time? Lemme tell ya… I… like… may also be experimental. Dark beers should be more prevalent than they are. I think the Sarge and some others in the Fleet would agree, so be sure to demand of your local barrister** that they provide some fine dark brew for you. Last weekend, I tried a Cappuccino Stout. As soon as I can find it again, I shall do a glowing review, but for now, it’s like Gatsby’s green light. Anyway, I just wanted to pass on a scene of tragedy to you all. If you’ve seen this before, you may be hardened to the pain it causes. If not… brace yourself (assuming you have yet to look at the image directly below this text):

*from the German for “Kenya.”

**y’know, like a British lawyer who also owns a bar.
