Ever try Sam Adams Boston Ale?  I like it better than the lager.  Probably because it's less hoppy.  To me, the lager is just a tad over-hopped.
The Boston Ale is a tasty beer, way better than the Boston lager.  I think that's twice today I've agreed with you, I better log off lest I make it thrice. ;)

Yes, I prefer it also, but I have not found it for years and years.

OT, I'm drinking a Sam Adams Boston Lager.  Pretty solid stuff IMHO.

I bought some Evan Williams Single Barrel yesterday and had a finger last night, not bad.  I still prefer Woodford, but it's good, spicier.
I think Boston Lager is a really good beer. Quite enjoyable. Rarely buy it because there are SO many others available, but when I'm in a place full of macro taps, I'm always happy to see that old standby. Never had the Boston Ale though. 

A few years ago a friend got married at Buffalo Trace. My wife and I got to visit Evan Williams (in downtown Louisville), then drove out to Four Roses and Woodford the day before the wedding. I preferred both Four Roses and Buffalo Trace to either Evan Williams or Woodford though.

If you look at the first pic from the treeline upward, it looks a bit like an old chromolith (?) postcard from a century ago.

It's interesting the resemblance of Atlanta's skyline to a mashup of Philadelphia and Baltimore. That may just be a coincidence, though....

That's a view of the park and midtown from the east.  We live in midtown, so it's our reverse view, taken from a drone.  Downtown ATL is off to the left out of frame.

We somehow missed this event, probably were traveling.  There is something going on almost every weekend there.  Incidentally, that field is where UGA played Auburn in 1895.

Boston Lager is one of my favorite stand bys as well.

The ale is also good

Those pics remind me to issue a public service bucket list item.  The Intl Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque in early October.   Wonderful experience.  Gotta get up super early for the fun, the mass ascension but it is fantastic scene.

maybe in a few years when I'm retired much nearer to Albuquerque

Actually my Uncle is a photographer in Durango, CO.  He's been to the event many times.

My aunt and her family live in Albuquerque, I've been lucky enough to see the balloon fiesta a couple of times.  It really is a sight to behold!

I'm oddly going to be in Albuquerque next September, and will just miss it.

No clue when, if ever, I'll make it back

My wife spent a few years studying in Albuquerque. She gets kind of googly in the eyes when talking about that balloon festival.
