This Is My Blood: Newbold


Guys, we did it. It's the 300th episode of This Is My Blood! I can't believe we've been here for 300 days in a row. To celebrate, let's take a look at some highlights from the past 300 blog posts and the past 300+ beers.
  • Remember the time I discovered all those new beers, like a blue lager, a fleizenhop, and Belgian Rare?
  • Remember the time I got banned from Yards for asking what kind of hops they use in their Pennsylvania Pale Ale?
  • Remember the time I went to an actual bar and sat at the bar among other bar customers and we all sat side by side drinking beer at the goddamn bar?
  • Remember the time I asked for suggestions for new beers on Twitter and all I got for a response was an @ from Evil Genius with just a picture of a goat ballsack?
  • Remember the time I had a really strong IPA with dinner?
  • Remember the time I drank a glass of orange juice and accidentally counted it as my daily beer because I thought it was a hazy IPA?
  • Remember the time I got COVID and they traced it back to a Coors Banquet that I had?
  • Remember the time I got drunk on beer?!
  • Remember the time Willow got drunk on beer?!?!
  • Remember the time I read a whole book about beer and bored you guys with it for like two months?
  • Remember the time I went to work drunk for like eighteen days straight?
  • Remember the time I had a lager?
  • Remember the time I visited every bar in Philadelphia?
  • Remember the time I was basically Patient Zero because of how many bars I was going to?
  • Remember the time I drank a Newbold IPA, a standard pale ale whose strongest attribute was a flavor of pine needles (which I don't necessarily mind)?
  • Remember the time I made a fake list?
  • Remember the time I always make fake lists because I think they are hilarious but they really aren't? 
  • Remember the time I didn't know what to write about Newbold IPA and so I did something so insipid that no one could possibly want to read it?
  • Remember the time I pretended like drinking a different beer every day could give my life meaning?
  • Remember the time I pretended I didn't want to get drunk every single day of my life?
  • Remember the time I started dreaming of a year in which I didn't count every beer that I consumed?
  • Remember the time I started to go off the rails with a supposedly humorous fake list?
  • Remember the time I didn't know how to end blog posts?
  • Remember the time I drank a Hurricane?
Cheers to 66 more of these motherfuckers!!!
