beer battered

Leah's brother Jake came home from China today, so her parents took us all out to dinner at a restaurant of his choice. He made a good choice. Usually with that family we get the ethnic stuff, but this was good honest American. Also, the place had a six-page beer menu! I only got one, but it was a good 16.9 ounces of Scottish ale; for his second, Jake tried the legendary Sam Adams Triple Bock, and I got to have a taste. It delicious, although Leah didn't think so. I guess she doesn't appreciate 17% alchohol by volume with no carbonation and delicious notes of chocolate and caramel. Also complete opacity to light. I had about a shot's worth, which was just right for a beverage of that consistancy.

The food was alright too, as far as I can recall.
