99 Bottles - Beer # 12

 Hello everyone! I haven't been posting much lately because I haven't had a chance to do much, lately. I majorly procrastinated on studying for a test that I had to take for a certification for the day job, so when it got to about a month until I had to take the test, I had to seriously buckle down to finish my studying. I never want to do that again! I was stressed that whole month, and even during the test, I thought for sure I was going to fail. Luckily, I didn't! I passed, so I am good for another 3 years. 

Once I had that test done, my anniversary was a few days later (8 years!). The husband and I went out for a nice dinner. I was perusing the drink menu, and I wasn't really enthused with anything there, but I noticed on the beer menu that there was a beer that was on my 99 bottles project. I, of course, ordered it! 

This one is called Moose Drool Brown Ale. I really liked this one. The flavor on this liked to linger. After my first taste, the flavor didn't go away for a little bit. I liked this, though! The flavor probably wasn't the best pairing with what I ordered for dinner, but I still enjoyed both the food and the beer. My husband remarked that there was a bitter flavor to it, much like coffee. (He doesn't like coffee, so he didn't really care much for this beer, either).

I would order this beer again, however next time I think I would want to have beef with it, rather than delicate chicken. Or, this would be good by itself, for sure! This is a beer that likes to linger, so it is a good one to linger with!

Here is the stitching of my beer (I love that you can actually make out the moose in the picture!): 

Here is the rest of the project so far:

I have also had a chance to work on some chainmail, and I have even more bookmarks planned. Some of my charms have come in! Here is a sneak peek on the subject matter:
