March has gone by very slow. It feels like I’ve been in this month forever. The starting week I was in Copenhagen followed by a case of the flu that turned into a sinus infection which lasted another 7 days and the anticipation of 2 International trades + the beers shipped from Belgium being stuck in customs, it’s been a bit stressful. Somehow, despite spending 25% of the month in another country and another quarter in bed with a cold, I somehow managed to pass my highest ratings in a month since August when I attended 3 beer festivals a scored 125 total ratings. It’s cool to have passed that and now that bar is set higher and closer to my hopeful 150 per month record which will most likely happen during summer months.<\/p>\n

Note: the “Belgian Beer Haul” from my trip in February will be a separate post. I’m crossing my fingers that all of the boxes arrive this week so expect that post soon.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Also this month, I bought a car and finally replaced my aging iMac that was literally on its last leg. Great month for beer, trading, drinking, rating and overall work \/ life. Thanks for reading and let’s take on this mammoth of a beer haul:<\/p>\n
