So there I was, sitting on the other side of the bar for a change, drinking my Apalach IPA, a no nonsense IPA with mild undertones that don’t reach up and bite you, when in walks a Master Crafter from down the street.  I stop what I’m doing and ask if there is something I could help him with. He looks around the bar, but not at me, clears his throat and says, “What time do you have?”

“Four more swigs before this is a beached whale,” I say glancing at the back of my hand.  Not finding the humor in this he sits down at the corner of the bar like he’s got cenosillicaphobia.

Suddenly, I was being held from behind and my Apalach IPA was out of reach to do me any good. But not being a noob, I hopped my way out of that mash. So there we stood, about to get into it when a growler rolled off the shelf from above and struck him on the head.  That’s the way Ninkasi works–– just when you need her.
