Una Más or Una y Listo

“Una Más” required a frantic reach out to the COMDB translation department. With their trademark disdain to all of us who are unilingual, they informed me that “the obvious translation is “one more”. I told them, “but I’m a one and done kinda guy”.  “Una y Listo? Ese...

Island Time Again

Hey Common Good, Jamaica good beer do you? As old Bob Marley would say, “you see, we taking it easy”* with this light island lager. I think Marley would have liked a beer company named the Common Good, but today’s quiz for duck is closer to home, as in will the COM...

Dark Day, Good Köstritzer

Dark Day, Good Köstritzer

A dark beer while listening to Dark Side of the Moon seemed to be a fitting follow-up to all the hoopla surrounding the elliptical illusion. At least the clouds prevented any fried like eggs eyes, sunny side up I assume. For those of you who drove hundreds of miles,...
