ok. so here's my contribution to Beer Blogging Friday or whatever it's going to be called.

I've been holding onto a Breckenridge Brewery Oatmeal Stout and some Ft. Collins Brewery Chocolate Stout for just this occasion. 

The Breck Oatmeai Stout pours a nice black with a small dense mollasses-colored head. It's got that odd initial taste that I've experienced with Samuel Smith's Double Chocolate Stout. After the initial taste, it's all roasted barley goodnes.   

So I had never heard of The United Nations of Beer until Google dropped it at my feet a few weeks ago. The site's pretty cool and it looks like their new Colorado Delegate Lucia Novara has been busy hitting the lodo scene.

I think this is unfair ;-) She probably gets free drinks all the time. Now, who's going to buy a married web/beer geek like me drinks? Boo-hoo.
