Many write - never forget. Isn't it a shame so many have forgotten.

Eight Year Old Pleasure

So here I am once again awake when I should be snug in bed with my lovely wife. Normal behavior of late. Anyway thirst is like a tiger this morning, and I want something cold and different.

I walk around and check our pantries and way in the back I find two six packs of Moxie. Moxie became a habit for me many years ago while on vacation in Maine.

I take one from the sixpack and try and remember when I'd purchased the soda. It really didn't matter, I was thirsty.

I poured the brew over ice and kicked back, satisfied. Then I remembered when I'd purchased and stored  the cans.

I'd just drank an eight year old Moxie. 2004 was a fine vintage.
