2015 (new) Stout (10-12 sample) in a Mastro de Paja 1C (sandblast) lovat. New Orleans Cafe du Monde light. Warmed up to the mid 50s with 60s possible today and I'll take any respite from the Winter like weather of the last few days. Giants looked pretty sad last night, congrats to the Eagles who seem to have found themselves.
Glad to hear! It's definitely not for everyone, and I'll typically use it for condiment-ing up a blend that I feel needs a bit more Lat, but every now and again - especially on fall walks through the woods - I'll load it straight and enjoy myself.Quote:
