Diary entry #20, Moling's Traditional Celtic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Verbatim:<\/strong> Moling’s Traditional Celtic. St. Patrick’s Day, 17\/3\/05. 500ml. $5, 4.9%. Dark with a nice red touch. Bubbles hang around alright. Very tasty, though not too strong. I’d like it heavier, but still. Perfect with burgers. Luckily, I’ve got some.<\/p>\n

Afterthoughts, October 2010:<\/strong> I still do these day-appropriate tastings of new things, whenever I can; something Irish on Paddy’s Day, something Australian on January 26, that sort of thing. Any excuse, right? But it’s nice to see I started early.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
