G-LO: Well, you did it again! A red-eye flight from LAX to JFK on Tuesday evening, an afternoon of eating and drinking in Midtown Manhattan on Wednesday afternoon followed by a 4 hour Kosher BBQ and whisky event in Battery Park at a little thing called Kiddushfest – […]
G-LO: We sure did pack a lot in during our short trip to Chicago. That “Maximize your time!” mantra of yours works every single time we get together. I’m talking three bars, one brewpub, a diner, a coffee shop, several liquor stores, a massive whisky show, a distillery, and a […]
G-LO: Yo, Limpd! It’s about time we made it up to Boardroom Spirits for a visit. I guess it takes a distillery and tasting room expansion celebration for us to make it out to Lansdale. LimpD: That and for the stars to align so that we’re both free […]

If you’ve ever read Nick Hornby’s High Fidelity (or even seen the film, which is pretty faithful to the book except for the fact they they made all of the characters American and moved the location from London to Chicago), then you know that lists play a pretty […]
Limpd and I had two options yesterday afternoon: Option #1: Stay at work and toil away at our mostly thankless jobs until 5pm. Or later! Option #2: Leave a little early to attend a behind-the-scenes preview tour of a new brew pub in Center City Philadelphia. As evidenced […]
