Boring life
Alright so today I woke up at 3:30pm...watched some 24 and surfed the net...and then went to work where I ushered with Gus, Caydie, Carissa, Garret, and some others...did that till closing...helped Chelsea close...and went home to watch more 24, eat, and drink a Doggie Claw. Boring life huh?
Hair of the Dog Doggie Paws
Hair of the Dog Doggie Claws. Another great beer from the Walmart Liquorette. It pours out in a brownish, amber color with a nice tan head. It has decent retention and is nicely laced. Hops are very noticeable in the aroma and also has a sugary type of smell. I'm guessing it's like a honey smell. The taste is where the beer really shines. The hops adds bitterness into the fold and it's balanced with the sweetness of the supporting flavors. Like the smell I'm guessing the supporting flavor is honey with a bit of another flavor that I can't seem to place. It has very light carbonation so it goes down so smooth. It also feels smooth going down which adds to the charm. My only real gripe is that you can taste the alcohol pretty well but that's to be expected considering it's a pretty strong 11.5% abv. If you don't mind the taste of alcohol then this beer is going to blow your mind. This is up there with the best beers so far.

Rogue Imperial Stout
Rogue Imperial Stout. This is quite a unique experience. It pours out in a dark color. It's basically pitch black with a think light brown head that has great retention and is beautifully creamy. The aroma is of coffee and roasted malts. It also has a slight chocolate aroma, but that's an afterthought. The flavor is resplendent as well. It tastes just like the smell but much more evident. It also has a thick consistency. When you get near the end of the beer you can see the thickness of the brew. This is the thickest beer I've had so it was quite the experience. It's 11% abv and you do taste the alcohol initially but it disappears as you drink it. The only hint of the alcohol is a slight warming taste in your mouth but the actual taste of the alcohol slowly disappears making this a very drinkable brew. It's so good.
Moved out!
I didn't sleep last night cause I was moving shit around the house making room for my apartment stuff. I met up with Mark and the two of us and my dad go to Rside to get the rest of my crap from my apartment. Bring them back and then I went to work where I proceeded to usher with Mando. Got off work, did a beer run, and then I knocked the fuck out. And now here I am...
24 Redemption
Ah 24 Redemption. I'm finally getting the chance to write about you. You are the prequel to the 7th season to set up the premise of the season. You have Jack in Africa and he prevents the local rebels from kidnapping the kids to use in their military. It's exactly what you would expect from 24, real time clock and all but all in a 2 hours span. It's pretty good but it's weird not having any real twists. It's straightforward and it makes you hate the UN and little black boys. The little boy is fuckin' annoying but whatcha gonna do? So yea....it's a fun ride while it lasts.

Grown Ups
So Grown Ups...I expected more out of this movie but it's still decent. It's not the nonstop laughs you would expect from the commercials or the trailers. It's more down to Earth and is definitely more like the cast just chillin' by the lake having some brews and talking. That's basically what this movie is. It's pretty simple and it works but you just have to expect it. Definitely don't go in expecting Happy Gilmore or Mall Cop, this is more realistic but I'm not sure if that was intentional or not. Like in real life they crack jokes...some funny...some not so much...some just plain awkward...so that part seems true to life. Guys and their stupid ideas are here and most things aren't too extreme and whatever is pretty far reaching is for the sake of comedy and works...but takes away from the aura of the rest of the movie. It's pretty diluted...it never really finds its footing...basically its a confused comedy that's unsure about where it wants to go and never really finds its groove. See it if you want but don't expect to laugh your asses off.
