Its Sat night and all is quiet, except for the Digable Planets playing in my head. This band reminds me of my friend Seth, one of the coolest cats you'd ever meet. I went down to the moldy market (my local liquor store), which carries a great selection of beers. I found on the shelves a bottle of Deschutes "The Abyss" 2009 reserve. Wow, what a beer! What??? A stout with licorice and molasses and aged in oak and bourbon barrels??? How can you go wrong? It is an 11% alc beer but you would not notice it because you'd be busy enjoying the stickyness of its body, the depth of its flavor, the complexity of its aroma and the lingering taste of bourbon in the finish. I'm still descending into the abyss..........
