Beer & Stogies
I'm not sure how/where I inherited a single bottle of Gordon Biersch Blonde Bock, but it's a bit of a letdown when compared to their Märzen.
While on the subject of disappointment, the Montecristo Fancytales I smoked last night while reading Harry Potter 2 couldn't hold a candle to the Chateau Fuente I linkblogged last Sunday.
Which reminds me, Gretchen was telling me about this place in Lodi she wants to check out...
Cigars + Beer + Wine + WiFi = Stogie's
If it's good enough for Eddie Guardado, it's good enough for me. I wonder if Susan will join us?
PS: I started wondering about the origin of the word "stogies"
In Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the early 1800s, wagon masters rolled and sold cheap, smelly cigars for the pioneers going West. The cigars were compared to the spokes on the Conestoga wagons, hence stogies.
