JP's brew a big hit at the poker party. The brews disappeared faster than Mulvenon's chips at the poker table.

Loved the amber again - a beer very indicative of the Wolfs Eye mantra. We strive to hit the mark on style, without the need for bizaar additions. It was good, the poker was good, and the cheesy chicken thing that James cooked for 6 hours was bad.
