Putting In Time, notes from the Rogue












Castles Beach, 9/8.











   Biked about 8 miles Saturday. Nice day. Took it easy. Surfed Castles Sunday. Knee to waist textured swell.  Flushed out by 7pm as high tide came in.  Some tropical storm activity far off the coast may bring some decent waves later in the week. Just not feeling it. End of summer blues. Like I'm just putting in time 'til the weather change hits.

  The Fall beers are hitting the shelves hard.  Put down Brooklyn Brewery's Oktoberfest. Biscuity aroma.   Nice toasted malt and toffee taste with German hops up front to balance.  Some sweetness in the finish.  Doesn't set the world on fire, but a very drinkable session Marzen at 5.5% ABV and 25 IBUs.  Rated it a C+.
