Munchkinland, notes from the Rogue

Land of Oz, 7/16













   The wave gods (yes I lower cased 'em... they ain't cooperatin'),  must be allowing  a portal to open into Oz. Haven't had much over ankle or knee high this past week. Clean, but epic only in Munchkinland. Still sliced up some small glass along the Roadway break (30th street).  Not impressing anyone though.  This evening was very mellow.  Quiet break. Water's warming.  Must've been near 70.  Gonna shed this rubber top the next time around. The water was crowded...with tourists.  You know it had to be teeny tiny.  Need a front.  Soon.
All I want is to have my peace of mind.   -Boston

































   The heatwave continues, and if one was to look for an ideal IPA to help endure the summertime sweatbox, Troegs Perpetual IPA fits the bill.  Pours a straw-yellow with a one and a half finger white head that fades fast.  Light aroma of citrusy grapefruit and pine.  My kind of Imperial IPA.  You're feeling the 7.5% by the time this is downed (or was that the 2nd one?... hmmmm). Traces of honey and lemon balance the 85 IBUs of hops. Nice one.  I rated it an A-.  Troegs... I like these guys.
