Sunday, December 16th, 2007

Imperial Stormtroopers raided Santa’s factory yesterday evening, killing an undetermined number of elves, arresting the owner, and confiscating his sled.

The emperor has said that Christmas will go on as usual this year, but a press release this morning confirmed rumors that it will be taken over by the Empire, and run under Imperial auspices.

Arcadia Ales Nut Brown Ale

Arcadia Ales’ dark beers blow me away. I’ll drink their light-colored beers with a mere shrug, but they certainly know how to do dark beers right.

Arcadia’s Nut Brown Ale smells and tastes of chocolate. It has a noticeable taste of hops at the finish, but it’s not overpowering. In fact, it’s even more subtle than Samuel Smith’s Nut Brown Ale. The Nut Brown has a less complex range of flavors than does Arcadia’s London Porter Ale, but is nevertheless a very satisfying beer - especially in the wintertime.

I highly recommend it.
