Making The Drop, from the Rogue's notes.

Chopped Chesapeake...15mph winds kept festivities indoors, but did not cap spirits.
Wades Point, McDaniel, MD. 11/26/2016

  Australian big wave surfer Mark Visser said it best..."Commitment is key." Marriage requires as much tenacity as any commitment. Now, I have to admit that this was not my first rodeo, but this ride required no second thought. I made the drop. We did it. My girl is now my Mrs. It's gonna be a helluva ride!

















   SeaQuench Ale. Dogfish Head's brewed concoction of lime peel, black lime, and sea salt. A Gose. A Berlinerweisse maybe. Cloudy pale-gold pour. One finger head. Strong aromas of lime and citrus, wheat, and tart fruit. Very funky sour taste, like lemon-lime sour patch candy. Peppery zest, with a bare hint of salt. Dry and lightly bitter. Very refreshing in the finish. A collaboration with the Baltimore Aquarium to help in the conservation impact for a healthy Chesapeake Bay. Rated a B+. The festivities couldn't have come off sweeter. Still trying to nail down this sour thing.
