It's sunny today. Tomorrow is my dad's birthday, and it's also Valentine's Day. Since all those fancy restaurants will be crowded, we decided to take him out tonight to have his favorite beef pie and fish&chips instead. My dad is a true beer guy. Even the beef pie was specially infused with Guinness. It's quite an experience to get a little buzzed eating a pie. I wasn’t sure, it felt hot. He also encouraged me to take a sip of his German black beer, but I found it yucky, bitter, and acrid. It was not even close to the aroma which they implied. Why on earth do people pay for that?
