Back to beer - favorite variety - Great Divide Double Yeti Espresso Stout. Aged in oak barrels. Take that!
That's a good one for sure! I've had it several times.

Now now, true beer lovers cannot simply live on Trappist beers alone. Virety is the spice of life, and there is nothing wrong with having a diverse beer pallet . However, I will admit that Chimay blue/ grand reserve and Brother Thelonious has been back in my rotation again for the last two months .

I do like West Coast IPA's too, have six Saint Archer Mosaic IPA's

And a bourbon barrel aged stout to top it off.
If you like west coast IPA, give Green Flash LeFreak and Alipne Brewing Duet a try.

Cheers!!

Had a duo of Duets in my fridge until last evening... great beer!

Will have to try the Le Freak, thanks for the tip!

So you're saying we should drive them rain or shine? I like it!

You're both right. There is nothing like some Yeti in your Yeti 50 and some Leffe while in Nice.

I like this thread! I truly admire and enjoy the tidy, organized and spacious units, but I think some are misreading the thread title.

GregD - you might be in the lead bud. The bimmer is definitely hot and the garage totally sad!
Hats off for wrenching though! My last attempt to change a lightbulb on my 3 series didn't end to well. Soon I'll start another fun thread..."DIYs gone wrong!"

Here is my contribution. The double bay is nearly completely packed with "stuff". I bought the house last year, and just haven't got around to building another shed to put all that "stuff" in so I can park my other cars where they belong...in the garage!!

Use it therapeutically!

If today was your las day on Earth, would your rather spend it organizing the garage or drive the car that's in it, one final time?

Tidy spaces are nice, driving our cars is much nicer...
