Guitars and BEER!

First time in ages for me to be in a hotel for the week, so I brought my mongrel Burny up to Bangor, ME. Enjoying some nice G-String Pale Ale from the Funky Bow Brewery in Lyman, ME while here “Down East.” Gonna try to take a cruise by Stephen King’s house tomorrow. Been meaning to do it for ages.

Bareksten is a local world class distiller. He makes superb gin and aquvit, among other things. We cooperate with him in making premixed cocktails. Really nice stuff. Check it iut here: The Spirit of Bareksten | Bareksten Spirits
His gin, Bareksten Botanical Gin is sold world wide. You’ll even find it in Caesar’s Palace in Ls Vegas.:)

I wish I liked pale ales since that is about 95% of my choices in my grocery store. They have lots of good independent brews but almost all are a pale of some sort. Just not into that super hoppy thing.

When I can't find a decent German or Czech Pilsener, or Harpoon IPA (more like Bass Ale), then I'll go for a Pale Ale. It seems like 99.9% of the current microbrew IPAs are like drinking hoppy tasting bongwater. Unless they are citrusy, then they just taste like bogwater with a slice of orange.

Spending some quality time with my long time buddy, ol' red...and a bottle of Yuengling trad lager. Good times!

I've always fancied trying one of those LTD SGs (viper and similar versions). I should imagine they're really good value.

Belgian beers are great. You should try Le Chouffe - it's absolutely outstanding, head and shoulders over Duval (which I also really like).

Sadly and not too long after that pic was taken, the handle of that beer glass broke off when I accidentally tipped it over in the kitchen sink while trying to wash out the glass. I still cant find an exact replacement for it... :cry:

Didn't care too much for the Elysian Space Dust either!

This LTD Viper (FM100), was a gift from my wife. Got it and ohsc for $250. Decided the pickups were way too hot for me, so I went through a number of pickup sets before I installed the GFS Kwickplug alnico II classics. Had the hardest time bonding with the bridge pup, but some fiddling with pickup height and polepiece stagger got me where I needed to be. Also gave the old rascal all new hardware as a reward for putting up with me. Lol. This is my all-time favorite guitar.
