Handwritten notes: Just like Nostradamus, this beer is misunderstood and mis-quoted. It also has a beard and is very sweet on the inside. It kind of tastes like that "Halloween Candy" you used to get as a kid. You know, the crap wrapped in wax paper with pictures of pumpkins and ghosts on it, but no brand name? I love that stuff. It has a kind of caramel and sweet sugar taste without being dumb about it. This beer is very candy like, and thus not quite refreshing or thirst-quenching. But it is a good beer nonetheless.

Actually I traded it from my brother for a a copy of Mrs. Mills' "Music for Anytime" LP.

My bro's a shady bastard so it was likely stolen at some point.

Nice to meet another hoser straight out the WPG blogging it up.
