Default Free winter charger (sort of)

Hope this is kosher since I'm not actually "selling" anything. I have an extra Porsche Tequipment charger that was given to me when I purchased a set of rims this past winter (guy no longer had the car). Since I already have one, I'm willing to ship it off to someone in need of one. All I ask in return is a case of local micro brew. PM me if interested and I'll send it off.

I like some IPAs OK. Most however are severely over-hopped now. An IPA will never be well balanced, but you should still be able to get a taste of malt.

You can cover up a lot of brewing mistakes by throwing tons of hops at it. VERY few people can taste anything other than the hops when you add as much as most IPAs have nowadays.

The Real Ale Brewing Company's Brewhouse Brown may be my favorite beer to drink. It's not fancy. It's not brewed by Belgian Monks who make one 2 gallon barrel every five years. What it is, is absolutely delicious! (And unfortunately, not available in Mississippi!)

My tour of the old Saint Arnold Brewing Company's brewery, led by the brewmeister and finished with an all out kegger that lasted several hours was the most informative, fun brewery tour I've ever done. And I've done A LOT! Oh yeah, great beer too!

According to that list there are at least three sought after ones in SoCal. Of course many microbrews these days are contain weird ingredients and flavors. So some on that list may have more novelty value than anything else.

Well, I made the deal with Kromdom, however the microbrew selection was lacking in his area. Fortunately he had several wineries near his house which is just as good.

No fair, you didn't say we could change the options?

Screw the wine! We have some really good vodkas and bourbons out here:

in retrospect I suppose I could have just pitted everyone against each other to come up with the best offer but Kromdom seemed like a good dude so I pounced on the wine. Texas bourbon, eh? I'll have to try some!

Temecula has some award winning wineries and makes some of the best "grape juice." I will pick one worthy of your wife's palate 😆
