Mercury Cafe

Last week, my wonderful friend Chad took me to the Mercury Cafe in Denver, Colorado for a poetry reading and some organic beer. The vibe inside the place was super awesome, very chill. A pretty unique place to hang out. The best part of the trip out was riding on the back of Chad's Honda 550 - takes me back to the days of being in Indiana, on the back of my daddy's bike. Now I'm quite convinced that I need my own.

Chad recited an awesome Leonard Cohen poem about knowing the difference between butterflies and the actual term butterflies. It was fucking perfect.

GREEN MOUNTAIN IPA - All organic, tangy beer. Went down easy, with light hoppiness, light lacing, and a slightly sweet, floral aroma. Yum!
