It would be a massive pay cut. However, the savings from not having to buy beer anymore might make it worthwhile. Let me think about it as I sip my Fremont IPA.

I have heard the Fremont IPA is a good one, but haven't tried it yet. I tend to enjoy stouts and porters more but IPAs make for a good warm weather beer. My current go-to IPA has been Fresh Squeezed by Deschutes from your region.

You did say that you once considered a going into a history field, if I recall correctly.

JJ is moving to VA. This would keep him off the streets and give him an excuse to hit the bars.

The Fremont Interurban IPA is very good. The Fremont area of Seattle is very weird. They have a large statue of Lenin (it's for sale), and troll under a bridge.

Maybe I need a "beer historian"
because soon after I get a hold of a beer,
it's history.
But then, it has truthfully been noted:
"You never really buy a beer, you just kind of "rent it"
for a while."

Don't collect "antique" beer. Very few keep well. You're already following the best COA: make it history.

Don't forget the Fremont Solstice parade and their assorted ... Ahem ... bicycle riders.

I find the same can be said about coffee.

Alright, stop hacking my Facebook feed. I already sent a drunk cover letter written on a bar napkin in crayon. So basically I have this job in the bag. I hope they cover the cost of greasy food to go with said beer.

Just got back from my interview. I threw up on the manager, twice, and shit my pants. He shook my hand and told me I start Tuesday because no decent alcoholic is worth a damn on Mondays.
