TYRANENA BREWING CO. - PAINTED LADIES PUMPKIN SPICE ALE  Great smell, smells like a pumpkin pie. Lots of spices, cinnamon, nutmeg and lots of pumpkin. One of the better pumpkin smelling beers. Taste is more of the same, smooth pumpkin, roasted malts, and a bit of spicyness, mostly cinnamon. A pleasant surprise, first beer from Tyranena i have tried. If you like the pumpkin beers this is one worth finding and trying.

LEFT HAND BREWING COMPANY - OKTOBERFEST  I know i have said it before, and i will say it again, i really enjoy these Oktoberfest Marzen style beers, and this one is no exception. Sweet  caramel malt smell with a little bit of nuttiness. Taste had a great balance of everything in the style. Malty, toasty, bready with a little hop finish. Another nice Oktoberfest.

PARLIAMENT - UP FOR THE DOWN STROKE  A little funk for a Wednesday. Classic record from a groundbreaking group. Originally released in 1974, these guys were well ahead of the times. Top of their game musically and creatively, just good stuff. If you dont get it, your not ready. Favorites:  Testify, The Goose, I Can Move You (If You Let Me), and Prescence Of A Brain.
