Happy Birthday to me! That was yesterday. The big 52. Past middle age. Yikes! Sitting on my doorstep that morning was a package that contained quite a nice surprize. A five-pack of Dogfish 120IPA, a very rare and hard to find brew. But thanks to my friend, Brenda, in Pennsylvania (PA) the coveted brew arrived safely. The photo shows Dogfish glasses and a Dogfish cap, also compliments of Brenda. Thanks! To those that don't know anything about Dogfish, go to www.dogfish.com The brewery is located in Milton, Delaware. They also brew, besides other things, Dogfish 60 IPA, Dogfish 90 IPA, and yes, Dogfish 120 IPA. It is an extremely hoppy beer and after only one, you will be very hoppy. With an alcohol content close to 20%, be careful. I wrapped up a bottle of it yesterday and headed to Fusion, one of my favorite restaurants in Fond du lac. Of course with permission, I opened the 120 and carefully poured it into one of the Dogfish glasses that I leave at this establishment. AHHH! Nectar of the gods. Just for comparison purposes, I ordered a Dogfish 60 IPA, and poured that in another glass so that ..... not sure why I did that, but it was my birthday and it's all about me. Thanks Brenda!
