Beer Type: American Double/Imperial IPA - 7.85% ABVAppearance: Squat 12 oz. brown bottle with the "classic" white label and some text (plus a big red splotch on it). Beer poured a clear straw/yellow-orange color with just a trace of head.Smell: Fruit up front with a bit of citrus and tart apple followed by a bit of dank hops and a little malt.First Drink: Hops to the front! Quickly followed by flavors of grapefruit and oranges plus sweet malty goodness. Tasty!Mouthfeel: Nice crisp medium body with just the right amount of carbonation.Last Drink: Plenty of smooth malt flavor rides out the hops and leaves a pleasant bitter finish that doesn't last too long.Drinkability: If you dig hoppy beers you are going to like this for sure. Not the best I have had but damn far from the worst.Notes: Took me a long time to find this beer here in Michigan! Super bummer. Glad I got to taste some and I hope they make this all the time!Verdict: 4.25 out of 5. Great balance of hops and sweetness make this one to recommend.

Progress Report 11/10/14 - Zoning Out.
Things! Big things! Changing up the job again. This time I will be making a bit more money but have a bit less time not working (at least for the next few months). Excited to be less stressed about income but not so excited about spending the next month and a half away from home for training!
Expect updates to come few and far between in the next couple months. In the meantime here are some photos of Deadzone terrain I have been building up (along with modifying some existing terrain I had built for Necromunda). Still no idea when I will play the game proper but I figure having some nice looking terrain to play on can't make matters worse.
Big 4x4 building/stronghold type terrain. |
A "bridge" type building I made to connect other buildings. |
Like this! |
Start of some sort of space type building thing with platforms. |
This unpainted terrain belongs to the Rebs!! |
Perhaps we should call it TERRArain? |
A big 4x4 rubble pile with some towers. |
I've actually got a lot more done now. Pretty much all of the Deadzone starter box terrain is built and I am just adding some of the bits and details to them now. I built a lot of cubes figuring they would be the most flexible for stacking and other formations. I'll get them up soon once I have it all primed!
Also managed to snag this snazzy new paint rack out of the trash. Organization!!
Ohhh... fancy. |
And I received some new brushes from the Ichiban Games & Gears kickstarter though I haven't used them yet. They look nice and I hope to paint up some minis with them soon! Until next time...

Malal Minis - Mierce Miniatures.
Still thinking about a host of Malal for my Warriors of Chaos. Still haven't landed on the perfect models or ideas for conversions either... then today I came (back) across Mierce Miniatures and saw this shiny new mini!
Look familiar to any Malal fans out there? Perhaps this image will shake up your memory?
So massively in love with this mini I wish I could buy it up right this moment! Sadly funds are not on my side so hopefully time will be...
And speaking of time I would recommend finding some to browse the other excellent (and excellently painted) miniatures on the Mierce website. I found a few others I think would make excellent additions to my Malal themed force... and here they are!
