Wow. I had that for the first time about a month ago. Pretty good.

That explains why I prefer IPAs to stouts and bocks. I like hoppiness over maltiness any day.

Once again, I go with Pugmeister’s taste profile - oh my, did I use the word profile? Vinny, please do not turn me in to the AOC police.

Some day, you and I will clink glasses to a nice hoppy, citrusy, IPA Mountaineer. Whoever wants to join us is welcome. As long as you stay 6 ft away.Mountaineer wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 2:47 pmOnce again, I go with Pugmeister’s taste profile - oh my, did I use the word profile?

Yup. I like every type of beer except IPAs. My favorite is hefeweizen.
I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun, because I must leave them to the one who comes after me. Who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill under the sun. . . Nothing is better for a man than to eat and drink and enjoy his work.

Pug, we are going to have to undertake a re-education campaign for the unwashed.

Daily check-in from NYC.
Trying to ignore the news, except for watching Cuomo's daily broadcast and compiling a chart of daily new COVID cases in NYC, which I posted in the coronavirus thread. Cuomo's broadcasts are getting better every day. Either that, or I'm appreciating them more. Highly recommend you guys pull them up on youtube.
Today I did some work on a journal article in revision, got hit up for a feature in the chair's weekly newsletter (just published an article a few days ago), obsessed inappropriately about a university hiring freeze that cuts off a postdoc hire in progress I desperately needed to happen (and so did she), and participated in a remote graduate student thesis committee meeting/qualifying exam. Then got an email asking me to add info to a spreadsheet with all our names on it, titled "Redeployment". This included my postdoc and research coordinator, so I had to warn them they may get a phone call.
Just had some tequila. Going out for a walk. I'm going to enjoy the weekend as best I can. BTW etoh-wise, I HIGHLY recommend a "Pennsylvania Dutch Egg Nog" liqueur that a friend of mine found. Incredibly yummy stuff.

Hefeweizen would be my second choice if no IPAs were available.Kriegsspiel wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 4:13 pmYup. I like every type of beer except IPAs. My favorite is hefeweizen.
