Brewed Beverage of Choice:  A Chalice of Zen Lunatic Belgian Strong Golden

To all who took the time to sample, remark, and vote for the Zen Lunatic at this year’s Portland Cheers To Belgian Beers, a humble and heart-felt thanks!  I did not model it after any traditional Belgian.  I merely put all my knowledge and luck into it and trusted the yeast to finish what I started.  According to the comments I am reading or have read about the Zen Lunatic, we did what we set out to do.  So Prost! To all of you!

We Shall Not Have Spoken

A passer-by remarks
“This pear tree is wonderfully pruned!”
I respond, “Yes, but I missed
that branch higher up.” He smiles,
“But, my friend, would we then be speaking?”

Prost!
