I guess I need to come clean in here, but I'm getting a little non-plussed by all the latest brews that are out there these days. The craft shelf at the supermarket looks like a freakin' flower shop, it's hard to tell what style is under all those fancy labels. The few that were obvious about the product were for things like pomegranate and watermelon. Uhhh... no thanks. It was baffling, and overwhelming.
It was made worse because the distributor/rep was in the store, sensed my confusion, and tried to help me find something that I would like. I ended up telling him that I get disappointed so often with trying something new, and feel like I've wasted good money in the process because the fancier the beer/label, the more expensive it gets. I'd rather drink a Nattie because I know what I'm getting, and leave it at that. He looked as if I had punched his children.
I had an "old man yells at shelf" moment and walked out of the store without any beer. It's clear to me that the game has passed me by, and it's time to hang em up. But I'm proud of myself for recognizing the moment, and not dragging it out into further humiliation.
Skoal.
