90 Read Fight Club

Just finished it. Great book. I have to say I almost like it better than the movie, which is odd I guess having seen the movie first. I think have to track down a hardcover copy of it now to add to my collection.

91 Buy 10 albums from artists not signed to RIAA labels. (2/10)

Picked up Swagger and Within a Mile of Home by Flogging Molly on Amazon, the MP3 albums are on sale this month for only $5. I admit, I had them pirated, but I bought them now, so it still counts.

49 Try 50 new different beers (36/50)

Ok, haven't updated this one in a while, got 10 new beers to add...

Guinness Extra Stout - I know, I know, should have had it a long time before. Very good.

Goose Island IPA - I found out I am not a fan of IPA's. WAY too hoppy.

Gella's 1 - Pale Ale - not too much of a fan

Gella's 2 - American Wheat Ale - clean taste, very light

Gella's 3 - Amber Ale - not bad

Gella's 4 - Downtown American Brown - didn't stand out too much, could have been the beer overload from trying the sampler

Gella's 6 - Oatmeal Stout - mmm, tasty

Gella's 17 - Honey Brown

Gella's 18 - Winterfest Ale - I don't think I'm much of a fan of seasonal winter beers for some reason

Gella's 39 - Pete's Porter - thick and robust flavor, I like it.

#26 - Tallgrass brewery's Buffalo Sweat... it's a dark cream stout, really unique, and tastes a bit like coffee. A nice stout, it's one I may get again this winter.

49 Try 50 new different beers (25/50)

With Crystal's help last night, I made it halfway to my goal on trying new beer. Thursday night OJ brought over some St Pauli Girls, not a bad beer, a little light for my tastes though. Throughout my taste testing, I've noticed I like Witbiers, stouts, and porters.

Beer 25 was Odell Cutthroat Porter, from a CO brewer. Crystal picked it out since I was in the mood for a porter, and I have to say it's really a nice pick.

As a side note, in trying to find the exact name for the Cutthroat Porter, I found a site I may join, beeradvocate.com. They have a lot of beer reviews there, they'll definitely be used for finding future purchases.
