Well…it seems like it’s been a while since my last beer review. I guesss I been busy drinking it without writing about it. Or, maybe it’s that I have been drinkin the same stuff over and over lately. Anyway, I just poured myself a pint of this brand new Ballast Point Brewing Company “Sculpin India Pale Ale”. The smell before I got to my actual first sip was a pleasant meeting. Taste: ‘This is pretty delicious’. It’s definitely an IPA and it definitely delivers that big hop-heavy flavor that I dig so much. It’s a yellow-golden color and although it might look a bit like a ‘light beer’, it most definitely is not. It goes down very smooth and the aftertaste is a mellow hop and bitter carbonation tingle. This weighs in at 7% Alcohol by Volume so there’s a nice helping of ‘buzz’ in each bottle.
These are a limited release, so they won’t be around forever. If you’re interested in tasting one of these, I suggest motivating soon to do it. Luckily I got to them right after delivery, so the ‘heads up’ is nice and early for ya. Be prepared for the price though; I paid $6.99 for the 22oz. What is kinda weird about this brew is that the actual Ballast Point Brewing website doesn’t make a mention of it. So, I guess the best way to get more info on this is to go out, buy one (or several), and drink it. Like they say, there’s no better way to learn than from first hand experience.

Here’s the final installment of the Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry Guinness commercials.

This one includes all sorts of Lee Perry ‘philosophies’ on different stuff. No, he’s not weird, you are for not thinking like he does.
Shazaam! Have Guinness extra cold and be happy!
…Good Brain.

Hehehe…wow, remember that shit? This is what commercials were like only twenty-something years ago. You gotta give Budweiser some “Damn they’ve got balls” credit for funding an ad campaign that attempted to make beastiality ‘cool’….hehehe. Go Spuds MacKenenzie.

Here’s another of the Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry ads for Guinness. So grab yourself a bathtub, bring it to the beach, open a Guinness, and practice your telepathic meditation.

An Ohio man says he is seeking a jury trial on a charge of driving under the influence that was slapped on him after he crashed the vehicle he was piloting — a barstool.

“It was just an accident. I mean a little minor accident,” Kile Wygle, 28, explained in an interview this week with CNN affiliate WSYX.

His homemade vehicle was made from a barstool welded to a small metal frame attached to a five-horsepower lawnmower engine, four wheels and a lawnmower steering wheel, according to the Newark, Ohio, police accident report.

Officers responding to a report of a crash with injuries March 4 said they found Wygle nursing his injuries and highly intoxicated. According to the police report, when asked how much he had had to drink, Wygle responded, “a lot.”

He crashed during his attempt at a U-turn while speeding down the street in front of his home — a daring move from atop the specialized barstool even for the most nimble and sober of men. Measuring 6-foot-1 and 230 pounds, and after having consumed what he later told an officer was 15 beers, Wygle appeared to be neither.

He was treated at a hospital for minor injuries.

According to the police report, Wygle claims his unique vehicle can reach a speed of 38 miles per hour, though at the time of the crash he was going around 20.

What kind of world do we live in when a guy can’t build a dangerous motorized vehicle, drink 15 beers, and bust donuts in front of our own houses? I mean, who hasn’t wanted to do the same thing, but just wasn’t motivated to the point to actually build the barstool gokart?

For those that don’t know the name Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, he’s an out-of-this-world, off-his-rocker, crazy reggae producer/entertainer from the good old days in Jamaica. He’s worked with every big name from back in the day and has put out more albums than I care to collect. He’s known for being just plain weird…and so the good people at Guinness decided to capitalize on that and make some commercials around it.
