Day 266: September 23, 2015
Diary entry:
If I thought yesterday was long, today was even worse! Had a 4AM wake-up to get to Schiphol in time to pick up Erin, who was arriving back from the US today.
And then direct to the office in time for my first 9AM meeting, and a full day of meetings thereafter. I’m out the next two days, so stayed later to get caught up before leaving today. Tomorrow is yet another very early morning as we fly from Weeze airport before 7AM!
Need to head to sleep ASAP to prepare. Dismaland tomorrow, so excited!
The Beer:
Name: Red Agave IPA
Style: American IPA

Red Agave IPA by Ensenada Brewing Co. Brought home to the Netherlands by Erin today. Very hoppy bitterness. Slightly fruity aroma and flavor. Citrusy aftertaste.

Two row barley and dark crystal malts lend the rich red hue to this refreshing beer.
