5. Thanks, hermetic, for starting the thread. A new brew pub, huh! Hope it's a good one.

I sometimes wish that I could walk down to the pub for a pint, but I live 20 minutes from town and there aren't any pubs in the area. Please feel free to have a drink for me anytime! I am a huge fan of Oskar Blues' Dale's Pale Ale.

I finished reading Thomas Savage's The Power of the Dog and did a recap of it on last week's thread. It is one of the best books I've ever read and I will add it to the Best of 2016 list. Started reading his book, The Sheep Queen on Friday and it is nearly as good. The writing flows so smoothly, although the story is not quite as riveting as The Power of the Dog, which is right up there with Lance Weller's book Wilderness--one of the best.
