beer has gone to the dogs. @965JackFM #barkersbrew #dogbeer
NO, literally it has gone to the dogs! I was browsing the beer news today and discovered this wacky morsel.
"If you always feel like you’re the only one who’s pounding them back when you and your four-legged friend sit down to watch ‘Game of Thrones,’ don’t worry: one company in England has introduced beer for dogs. The aptly named Barker’s Brew comes in two flavors: chicken and beef. The non-alcoholic beer also has Vitamin E, making it pretty healthy for your pet."
Who knows if your lucky maybe he will return the favor!

304 rod company. @troutunlimited #leeorr #flyfishing #wv #bamboo #rods
The 304 Rod Company is the result of one man's passion for fishing and building premium quality bamboo fly rods. Lee Orr, owner of 304 Rod Company, has been hand crafting fine bamboo fly rods since he first picked up a bamboo rod more than a dozen years ago. He fell in love with bamboo rods and quickly mastered the intricacies of bamboo rod building.
"I fish for anything that swims and mostly with a fly rod. My goal is to catch as many species of fish on a fly rod as I can..." - Lee Orr
Each rod is unique and bears the signature of the rod maker Lee Orr.
Lee's shop is based in Charleston, WV and he spends most of his time fishing the Kanawha River. His work is truly amazing and its good to see someone close to home using sustainable materials to craft masterpieces.

Two if by sea. @njdotcom #adventuresailing #oceanrace
On this Adventure/Appalachia Thursday I found this gem. "Clipper round the world", an ocean race where local Jersey girls, Meg Reilly of Scotch Plains and Jersey City resident Kristi Wilson are two of 42 Americans participating in an around-the-world ocean race crewed by amateur sailors.
"The two are on separate teams in a competition among 12, 70-foot stripped down racing yachts. Only the skipper is a professional — their crews paid the U.S. equivalent of more than $8,000 to participate in one of the legs of a race that began Sept. 1, 2013 in England. Wilson and Reilly are two of only 110 taking part in the entire 40,000-mile circumnavigation."
There are 9 total legs to this race and it is a mixture of shorter legs and longer ones. The longest was an approximately 5,550 mile, 26-day odyssey from Qingdao, China to San Francisco, which lasted from mid-March to mid-April.

next rounds on me. @usatoday #ryebeers #beeringredient
When someone says "rye" what is the first image that comes to your mind?
"Rye bread? I usually pass. But rye beer? Why not?" I guess not everybody likes rye bread, but I bet you'll like rye beer. I didn't realize just how many rye beers there really are until I started researching a little.
"You're probably seeing beers with rye used in the brewing process more frequently these days at your favorite watering hole and beer retailer. But rye beers aren't new." They are coming out of the woodwork as it were.
"Back in 2002, Terrapin Beer Co., of Athens, Ga., won a Gold Medal for American Pale Ale with its Rye Pale Ale. Other breweries that dabble in rye include Firestone Walker Brewing Co. and its Wookey Jack Black IPA, Sierra Nevada (Ruthless Rye), Dogfish Head (Ryehoboth) and Samuel Adams (Revolutionary Rye Ale)."
So what I have realized is that I have just barely scratched the surface of the rye beer offerings that are out there. I definitely plan on trying as many as is humanly possible, hope you will too. Oh, and if you are wondering what glass to use, its the one all the way to the left!
