Discovered Beer Saturday and Arrogant Bastard - reedracer

I'm watching Fear of the Walking Dead and perusing Steemit posts when I stumble upon a post about Beer Saturday by @rebeccabe. I'm like, "Who the heck is @rebeccabe?" Not really. What I'm really thinking is why have I not heard of this thing before now?

It's 8pm and the snowpocalypse that was supposed to hit Tuesday is now scheduled for tomorrow. I've already been to the grocery to get T.P., bread, milk, and eggs so we can make French Toast and poop while we are snowed in, but I go ahead and decide to go get some ale anyhow.

First I hit the Fiat Locker to deposit some cash.

Then I hit the beer cooler at the Hy-Vee near me and quickly decide to start with a beer that begins with letter 'A" and Dr. Suess my way through the brews. So for my first #beersaturday I choose a bottle of Arrogant Bastard Ale.

I've been meaning to try this stuff for some time, but alas, the bottle suggests I am not worthy. ![ynw](https://media.giphy.com/media/26wkwmhAXqBDkiGOI/giphy.gif)

On this day time I go ahead and quash my insecurities and make the purchase. I also toss in a couple treats for my Valentine.

![IMG_20180209_190313.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRs1vXninsY3arbPC9LgFsz8cLU71S3P22UJ7kHrUP6mb/IMG_20180209_190313.jpg)

I run on home, grab my frosty mug and my bottle opener and head back to my dungeon of Walking Dead and seriously dark ales.

![20180209_221451.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRTAUjKSmKdk6acy7ZkrZLiukNLGdesd6rtzeHFgUUawS/20180209_221451.jpg)

I pour some into the glass and notice how heady this stuff is!

![40c01a1a-bee9-4243-abef-a614678d73b3.jpeg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmWHMamX5HBYupQP1ebPDMxQuQDgQ2wqHvdg9ySwGqDk47/40c01a1a-bee9-4243-abef-a614678d73b3.jpeg)

Ohhh and so tasty! The first half of the bottle just magically disappears!

![20180209_222151.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmeVV8hbCitoogd59HwaCacURDPGqKd7f5yAnZv3YrQ2Pc/20180209_222151.jpg)

Big gulp...

![20180209_222151.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmeVV8hbCitoogd59HwaCacURDPGqKd7f5yAnZv3YrQ2Pc/20180209_222151.jpg)

Now the bottle is empty, but I have several swallows left.

![20180209_222349.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmTcRrgWt1xxhTm6RfFJaaVSBhjKb7GqhWwgyNsCry8ZpK/20180209_222349.jpg)

I can't even describe how delicious this stuff is, so just go out and get you some and tell them @reedracer sent you. They'll probably sell it to you anyhow.

![20180209_222537.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmXv26MZRD6L5yUJuCgmrm7bpkHW8P5xmJL1CLmXDnuBKo/20180209_222537.jpg)

Now back to FTWD S03 E09. I really love the song at the beginning of this episode by Nick Cave and Friends - "Death is not the End" Bob Dylan wrote it! Think about the words and do not mess with Madison Clark!

Thanks so much to @detlev and @buzzbeergeek for hosting this very difficult but strangely satisfying challenge! I'll try to not let another 35 weeks go by before I enter again. (Follow those two, me , @rebeccabe (whomever the heck she is) and anyone else associated with this challenge. Thanks.

Now I just need to figure out how to bribe a bot.

Great post. I like the story and the photos. And I really like Arrogant Bastard. You might be interested in my post on Stone's Ruination. Also a great brew. I'll keep my eye on yours for further adventures with beer.

Its 8:30 am as I read this and I'm thinking that ale would probably make a good breakfast. :) Dark rich with enough body to be substantial. But then I would have to take a nap and not do the grown up crap I need to accomplish. Cool post. Peace friend.
