Florida Man...

...knows his beer!
From Cigar City Brewing...an 8.5% abv double IPA
The label says.."Unpredictable varieties of hops used in near-criminal volumes to create a bold, citrusy double IPA brewed to pay tribute to the world's worst superhero...Florida Man"
It's not bad.

I HATE that saying "It's not too bad"


people get pre-deposed to good and bad. HOW bad is it? Not TOO bad.

instead of "pretty good" everything is "bad" to what degree.

Most folks that do not need to describe themselves as an "Evil Genius" are able to draw an inference from casual expressions.

I'll tell you to what degree. Five. Guess where those five are going?

Well .... It doesn't suck .

My longtime buddy that recently passed (and two of his brothers) have called me Fred since the early 70s (and no one else ever has).....

"Fred, Fred, ol' cabbage head" - Grady

We loved that show back then and somehow the name stuck....

I like to use “drinkable” and “serviceable” also as beer descriptors. Means I will drink it because I have it but I would not order it again.

I don't think I ever watched a full episode of that show. In that time era, I had a satellite dish that picked up all channels and movies for free. (Playboy Channel was better than comedy shows!)


I bought the beer for the name...not the taste. Hence, not bad.
