Quills

Elgin, JC Higgins, J.C. Higgins, They're All Sears bikes, and all freaking awesome!! I love that the Firestone bikes are all the same frames too... It's too bad there isn't more information out there about these bikes as they totally kick ass. Yes, they're not quite as good quality as a Schwinn, but they're absolutely serviceable and personally I find they fit taller riders a bit better. One really could ask why AREN'T these bikes ruling the world about now?!?

Highland Brewing Company Oatmeal Porter

What can I say, I couldn't resist picking up a beer with a name like that!

Highland Oatmeal Porter I'm in Atlanta drinking beer from North Carolina!

This time around I'm sharing Highland Brewing Company's Oatmeal Porter. I'm a big fan of dark beers though I usually tend to avoid them at this time of year... Summer is more for IPA's than Porters! But HBC's Oatmeal Porter is a bit different from most...

A lot of porters tend to be a bit on the bitter side - the flavour of the Highland is quite smooth though with that great almost coffee finish and a well balanced taste. Definitely an easy drinker! It doesn't have as wild a body as some Porters, but I think a strong Porter is really an acquired taste. This beer is a great place to get yourself started in the world of beers you can barely see through!

Highland Brewing Company has a few other interesting titles in their library - if I had more time here I think I'd be seeking out their Black Mocha Stout for a taste. Next trip to ATL perhaps!
