Brewings Brewings Vol 32 Issue 4

There has been so many beer filled events since my last article I will note some highlights from each one . If you would like more information , put on you drinking socks and get out and attend these gatherings ! We really blew the roof off at Mike and Chris Andersons ( according to Chris ) for the chapter meeting / pontoon cruise . Amphicar rides took up most of the afternoon followed by a pontoon demolition derby where you could see more than one " full moon " in broad daylight . Jay Martin , riding on the front deck of my pontoon , found something he did not know he had , even though I point it out to him often . You will have to come to my garage and look on the cabinet door to find out what it is . The Nordlager show in Cloquet was again a blast . The campground was a riot featuring a patio bar I picked up earlier in the year . It must have been good because on Sunday while I was tearing down , an older gentleman was walking by and commented , " I guess the bar is closed ?" I could spend weeks exploring Duluth . What a great town . Our road cruise to Superior was legendary with Jay saving a miniature version of Bryan " Beer Goggles " Madsen from a life on the shelves of a thrift store . Fighting off the plague and a case of intestinal distress I made it through the Schell ' s 150th Schellabration . WOW , What a party , complete with a fireworks show to rival the taste of Minnesota ! The Border Batch booth was a real hit and all that manned it had a great time talking to all the people . I ' m still laughing at watching Jay almost fill his pants when they blasted off the cannons right next to the booth . Recently , a Stubiefest was held , from which we have received two dozen reports of individual acts of perversion , so profound and disgusting , that decorum

prohibits me from listing them here . I have grown to love wandering through the Guzzle-n-twirl searching for brewerianna and catching up with old friends . I must have had a good time because later , in my garage , apparently I carried on a nice conversation with a garage door which I claimed was Lori . In my defense , I really do like those new garage doors ! On that note , I will end with some quotes from Modern Drunkard magazines " You know you ' re a drunkard when " files

You know you ' re a drunkard when : You ' re best friends and worst enemies are all bartenders . You have no memory of ever eating a 7- eleven jalapeno dog and you ' ve eaten about 50 . You sometimes misplace yourself . You got lost crossing the street ( that actually happened to me ) Your bar tabs impact the international price of wheat and barley . You ' ve heckled AA meetings . You fall into a vat of beer and bravely fight off your rescuers for three hours . You inform the arresting officer that gravity is the only law you feel compelled to obey . Your first tree fort had a wet bar in it . And finally . Everyone thinks you are bilingual !

Hope to see all at the Christmas Celebration ! Lets have one ! Your lame duck , always late on his newsletter President Stubie
