    Have you played Silent Hunter Commanders Edition Eric?

    Nice game, playing as Axis of Allied boats through the war.

    Never heard of it, Neil? I just tried finding it on BGG, but to no avail.

    Absolutely! I'm not a beer drinker by any means, but the quality of many microbreweries surpasses the stuff they crank out in mass.

    Today's offering. Variations on a theme. It also looks like there were previous postings from Ballast Point Brewing Company. Apologies for any duplication.

    Very amusing Dave.
    I'm starting to get interested in the settings for some of these adds.
    Is that actually St. Austell in the background of the Admiral's Ale.
    I wonder for which Admiral it was earmarked?

    My Ale for today. I know it's a bit out of period, but I could not resist it, and besides it is from one of my favorite Breweries.

    Today's offerings. All from the Port Jeff Brewery. Very cold brews today. Our high is only going to hit 3 degrees F or -16 degree C.

    Just as an aside before today's offering, I also came across this whilst looking for Flying Dutchman Jenever.

    Harpoon Brewery offers beers, ales and my preferred drink, hard apple cider. Cheers!
