Bob LeFridge :tinoflag:<p>Bless the Oamaru Mail, describing 5G as "controversial technology".

BrownsBay<p>It's been chillier than normal here in western Washington and a good porter is the perfect brew. I picked this up in a four-pack of 16-oz cans at Costco. Coconut Strut Porter from Crux Fermentation Project - Bend, OR. 6% alch, 24 IBU. Hints of coconut and chocolate, but not overpowering. Malty but not sweet. Rich but not chewy. <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/beer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>beer</span></a> <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/porter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>porter</span></a> <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/Crux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Crux</span></a> <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/Bend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bend</span></a> <a href="https://pnw.zone/tags/Oregon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Oregon</span></a></p>
