BALLAST POINT BREWING COMPANY - PALE ALE  Smell has some hops, bread, corn and lemon. Good citrus in the taste, moderate hops, and a little grass.  Kind of sweet. Not bad, just doesnt really seem like a pale ale to me, more of a kolsch style beer.

BALLAST POINT BREWING COMPANY - LONGFIN LAGER  Not much to the aroma, some malts and a hint of lemon. Taste is light and mild with some malts, but overall not much there, pretty bland. Decent lager, but just average. Would i drink it again? Yes. Would i buy it again? Probably not.

BALLAST POINT BREWING COMPANY - CALICO AMBER ALE  The aroma is full of sweet caramel malts and just a hint of some piney hops. Taste is caramel and toffee with a little pine. Delicious and nicely balanced and real easy to drink. Really nice example of the style, one of the better ones i have tried. My favorite of the 3 Ballast Point beers i tried ronight.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN & THE E STREET BAND - PERFECTION AT LAST!-PHILADELPHIA 5TH NIGHT  This is a bootleg from a concert on September 17, 1984. It was night 5 of 6 at the Spectrum in Philadelphia during the Born In The USA tour. Great recording, the sound quality is amazing, could almost be a commercial release. Great setlist and a fun listen, as always Bruce puts on a great show.
