BEER OF THE WEEK!


ALRIGHT FOLKS!

It's beer of the week time! Every weekend, like I said, there will be a new one. Unfortunately I haven't posted anything between this weeks and last weeks beer of the week so it looks bad but don't frown upon me. lol.

This week's beer is undoubtedly St. Pauli Girl.

Now it was a tough decision, almost. There were a number of Black Butte's consumed at my house this week, one of which was spilled on my sheets by my graceful girlfriend as her and her friend sat on my bed talking. This sounds like a negative thing but in reality was a blessing in that I hadn't washed my sheets in way too long and myself and other boys had slept in my bed unshowered way too many times! Therefore, with a little beer in the bed, i was motivated to excellence and I went to Laura's house and washed my sheets along with most of my other clothing which entailed spending the day without Laura (she was working) but with her parents (they were both off) it was a fabulous day and I now sleep on clean sheets!

The reasons St. Pauli Girl has won the race are many, i'll give you a few. First and foremost, in the midst of drinking Black Butte this week I felt myself consistently going back to St. Pauli Girl after one BB. It's crisp, light but not light like Coors or Bud, and brewed in Germany, so it's got good roots.

The other big reason is that St. Pauli Girl has consistently been the beer of choice for the past two years when my father and I (though rare, which makes it even better) find ourselves on the back porch in Charleston, SC smoking cigars and drinking beer.

Now, what is also awesome about that is that as of this week my father will officially be in Oregon on January 24th, through the 31st. I am ecstatic!

The last reason that St. Pauli Girl is the beer of the week is because it is currently on sale at the Plaid Pantry which is the closest place to my house to buy beer, exactly 1 block. 10.88 for a 12 pack. You can't beat that with a stick!

Leave me something people. If you've never tried St. Pauli Girl, I encourage you to indulge.
