adventures in east atlanta, part 2
Last night, I attended the 2004 Full Moon Brew Fest at my friend Geoff’s house in East Atlanta. The party featured several varieties of home brew, as well as live music provided by Suspicious Package and Groupie. As I drove up to the party, I was met by my friends Dawnmarie, Trey, and recurring Propeller Skies character Stacia. I promptly ditched them when Some Dude mentioned homebrew was inside the house.
The home brew was excellent and I was particularly fond of the American Pale Ale, brewed by Some Dude*. Fortuitously, a keg of Sweetwater 420 was available on the front porch. A patented Smoove D Pale Ale Tasting was conducted. Some Dude’s Pale Ale has knocked Sweetwater out of second place in the Smoove D beer pantheon. In addition, Some Dude contributed a keg of American Brown Ale that was good, but not spectacular like the pale ale. Some Other Dude brought a keg of Red Ale, which was also good and a keg of Heffweizen. I did not sample the Heffweizen, because:
- I do not care for it; and
- It is difficult to spell**.
In addition to beer and music, the party also featured several beautiful babies. Unfortunately, I cannot remember any of their names either. Overall, it was a great party that drew an eclectic crowd from as far away as Cumming (which is so far OTP it might as well be in North Carolina).
notes:
* A risk of brewing up good beer is consumers drink too much of it and forget your name.
** Even Word is unable to spell it.
