The Wench vs. SDBW: Round 2
I must apologize for leaving you all hanging on the San Diego beer week updates. I’ve recently been plagued with a series of unfortunate events and have fallen off of the Internet map. So where were we? I last left off with the score: San Diego = 1. The Wench = 0. Truth be told, [...]
