SENDAK: Bush was president, I thought, “Be brave. Tie a bomb to your shirt. Insist on going to the White House. And I wa…

I headed over to Lee’s Retreat at the Blue & Gray Brewery for dinner this weekend. While waiting for my meal I enjoyed a half-pint of Blue & Gray Minor Dementia Bourbon Barrel Imperial Stout. Apparently a beer this big needs a big name.
