Show a picture of a great pair!!!

While on my digital cleanse, I paired these:

Current release Skull and Bones, with a modified zing zang bloody mary. Added a splash of A1 (for spiciness), a splash of pickle juice, and some fresh ground pepper. I needed something strong enough to compete with this cigar, and I was quite happy with the pairing.

Tonight my pairing is special!

Castle Hollow Trappist Ale and an Oliva Connecticut

Homebrewed and gifted by Gerard (kaisersozei)

The beer is excellent and the his recommendation for which smoke to pair with could not be more spot on. Thanks again Gerard

Another excellent pairing provided by Gerard

I thought I'd hijack your picture to post an update on this Belgian Specialty Ale.

This was 1 of 4 beers I entered into this year's National Homebrew Competition and I just received the scores from my regional round today. The other 3 beers did pretty well, but this one took first place in its category and will advance to finals in San Diego! The judges said it was a "gorgeous" beer and a "flawless" example of the style

I'm pretty pumped so I just thought I'd share!
