Milestone achieved!

Well, it took longer to get there than I thought, and longer to get to than any of the other 1000 benchmarks, but I drank unique beer number 4000 today! It was Southern Tier’s Cherry Crush and they crushed it! I scored it an A. I doubt I will hit number 5000 as I rarely drink new beers at home anymore, just when we travel. Still it’s been a lot of tasty fun. I always think of the cloth that Adam and Renae Gilles  gave me which says, “Thank you, craft beer breweries, for making my drinking problem seem like a neat hobby.”  ðŸ˜‚
Out of the 4000, the beers have come from 43 states and 73 countries. The highest alcohol content was Sam Adams 2015 Utopias at 28%. I started to count the individual breweries, but, at my age, I can’t waste that much time!
So sorry John Romero and Steve Swanson that you weren’t with me to share in this milestone! Blame it on Jordan with it’s pathetic three breweries! Had they been a beer drinking country it would have happened there! Cheers!
