Recently Reading

by Shawn on August 4, 2010

I’ve been stumbling through the blogosphere lately. What am I reading? Some new sites to my Google Reader and Pulse on the iPad:

Gear Patrol – The Definitive Men’s Resource
A little ad cluttered, but they take the time to jump past the press release.

DrinkHacker – The Essential Blog for the Discriminating Drinker
I don’t know how I missed this site before.

Remodeling for Geeks – Code for your house.
Remodeling with the hacker mindset.

More sites to come. Since acquiring an iPad, I’ve spent much more time digesting content recently. Pulse has been my feed reader of choice and Instapaper has been the workhorse for my mobile/time-shifted reading.

Captured: America in Color from 1939-1943

Tank 7

July 17, 2010

Part of Boulevard’s Smokestack Series. Tank 7 an 8.0% ABV Farmhouse Ale. Quite tasty and hides the alcohol level well give most saisons come in in 4%-5% range. First tasted on tap at the brewery (at my cousin’s wedding reception), but the 750ml bottle conditioned holds up well. Boulevard has seriously stepped up their game [...]
