Overlooking the fine print on this label, I didn't realize it was an
IPA until I caught the extravagant aromas of citrus and spice coming from the full thick head in my beer glass. Wow! It smells good. I know some beer drinkers who insist that real men ought to drink straight out of the can or the bottle. But here is a case where you would miss a major part of the experience by not getting your nose right into the bubbles.
Today our daughter Rachel got a "1" rating at a district contest for her speech on Billy Joel. His songs have so many memorable lines, I'm sure we can each think of a favorite. Mine is from "Piano Man",
"And the piano sounds like a carnival,
and the microphone smells like a beer."
Wouldn't it be great if more things in life smelled like beer?
