Just bought my second six pack of This beer has an interesting story behind it. DC area folks should remember the powerful straight-line storm, called a Derecho, that swept through the area in June 2012 and left 1 million DMV residents without power for up to a week or more, including Port City Brewery in Alexandria. They had a full tank of lager for which they were unable to control the cooler fermentation temperature needed for a lager, so the tank fermented at a higher temperature than intended. They bought a generator and nurtured the beer to maturity at the higher temperature, changing it from a lager to a California Common beer. They tried it and they liked it. So every June since, in commemoration of that happy accident, they brew and release Derecho Common. It's got a lovely pale golden-orange color. a nice malt/hop balance, and a modest 4.8% ABV. It's a really nice summer-time drink.

Ptomaine tasty!

No need for lemon, the dried urine on the sidewalk gives it that citrusy kick.

Okay, "Stoop Shrimp." Did anybody know this was a thing? Apparently it is in NYC. You buy shrimp, spread it out on your front stoop or some other concrete slab early on a hot summer day, let it sit there all day so it bakes in the sun, then scoop it up and serve it for dinner. WTF? Yum? http://gothamist.com/2015/07/09/just_a_bunch_of_shrimp_on_the_sidew.php

Did a bike ride Sunday that looped from Key Bridge, down the Mall, and up into Northeast then back. The route included stops at -DC Brau - 3178-B Bladensburg Road NE for a The Public Pale Ale and - Atlas Brew Works - 2052 West Virginia Avenue, NE - for a Home Rule Pale Lager At one point, we made a wrong turn and were temporarily lost. As we stopped to check Google Maps, we looked up and found ourselves staring through a fence at this: Fate had brought us literally to the gates of a beer garden at Bardo - 1200 - 1216 Bladensburg Road NE. (I hadn't even realized they had moved out of Ballston.) We stopped in, and I had a Chuck Brown Ale as we watched the dogs frolic and admired the skull sculpture constructed from recycled beer cans. .

After watching that I'll never again look at one of those cute "Hang in There" posters quite the same way.

Did anybody see the guy in the stands at the Nats game this week who took about 10 minutes trying to put on his clear plastic rain poncho with FP narrating? That was the best belly-laugh I've had in a month. Edit: and here it is.

No complaint was filed... the cop happened to drive by. The cop could have handled it a couple of ways. He could have: 1. Pretended he didn't see it and kept driving. Everybody except Larry would have been fine with that. 2. Helped the girls edit the sign to say "Free Lemonade: Donations accepted," drink a glass, drop a dollar in their basket, and drive away. Instead, he chose 3. Shut the whole thing down. Yay.
