I guess you could say that September's gotten away from me. I've had this can of beer chilling in my fridge for the last two-and-a-half weeks. I'd fully meant to drink it the day I stuck it in there. But, then life happened. Between things amping up at work (for both me and Michelle) and taking necessary time to address the house and relax from our ultra-hectic lives, this month's been a season-changing blur.


But that's fine. I'm here now with my beer. It's in a koozie placed on my table. The day is nice and cool. What a time to enjoy an Oktoberfest beer! Today's lager comes from Taft's Brewing Company in Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood: Oktubberfest.

We're rapidly nearing the end of the line for Christmas shopping--I almost have all of mine done. And, by almost, I mean I'm not really even close. Let's hope your further along in your gift accumulation than I am.


If you aren't, hopefully I can help you out today. Maybe I'll be able to recommend this beer, Taft's' Sant's Bribe, as a gift to give the beer-lover in your life. I guess you'll just have to read on and find out.
