Do it Belgian Style!

I survived the Belgian beer tasting last night. Even ate a few egg rolls before joining a friend for tasting and smoking at the 8EightyEight - Diamond Crown Lounge. Turns out, the tasting was of a Belgian "style" beer brewed right here in The OC by The Bruery. You'll find a complete run-down of the tasting at Beer, Bikes & Butts.

The night was not a total loss. I enjoyed a few cigars, a few Stella's, the Laker's game from the recliners in front of the 73" HDTV, and wonderful high-tech conversation. I believe I brought another bird into the Twitter flock, or as some call us twitterers, the twibe!

Speaking of total losses. After 3 pints of beer, five 4 oz. tastings, and 3 egg rolls, I managed to weigh in 0.2 pounds lighter this morning. A good very night!

There just may be a Diamond Crown Lounge in your neighborhood.
