The simple pleasures of beering locally. I'm older now, and simple beer pleasures are the most meaningful to me. They tend to be encountered locally. It is my aim to get unplugged and explore some of them, slowly and thoughtfully. I'd tell you where it's leading, except that I've no idea ... and that's the whole point of the journey: To find out.

BBC Beer Co is pleased to announce that Flanagan's Ale House is now serving cask conditioned ale otherwise known as "real ale." Please join us at Flanagans (934 Baxter Avenue) Friday night from 6 - 8 p.m. to kick off this exciting new release and discover how wonderful this rare ale is. We will enjoy BBC's American Stout -a creamy full-bodied ale with roasted malt flavors and chocolate influence.
We hope to see everybody there and remember to Never Buy Beer From Strangers ... Support Your Local Brewery!

The stout in question is casked prior to filling bourbon barrels. Same stout, no bourbon. I had one for breakfast Monday morning at Flanagan's after pulling an all-nighter installing their new cask dispense system.
