Kona Brewing Company's Pipeline Porter

This is some pretty good shit even if you aren't a fan of porters. It's a good session beer (especially for a porter), smooth with lots of malt flavor and a nice balance of hops to round out the 100% Hawaiian Kona coffee. Chocolate, roasted coffee and malts dominant the taste and make for a great porter that you won't have to fear buying a 6-pack of.

RATING: 79%

Abaeté Fall 2009 Collection

It's about time that I added something to the V3 component of R3, so I've decided to review a few shows from fashion week. (Maybe someone with strong feelings about the Betsy Johnson show will follow suit, nudge, nudge.) On first look, I found the Abaeté show to be well crafted but a little boring, but looking at it again I just had the realization that it is about 76% the embodiment of my own personal style. Occasionally funky, but very clean and put together (sometimes to a fault), and with lots of short skirts. (I dress this way because I am an artist masquerading as a lawyer. And because I like short skirts.) My favorite piece is the dress over there on the left, which is completely my style because the lines are a little crazy, but it is devoid of color (I wear a LOT of grey.)
