WTH is a St. Arnold's Weedwacker

St. Arnold's is a brewery in TX. Their weedwacker is a play on what are called "lawnmower beers" - beers that maybe don't have a lot of flavor but go down smooth and easy after being outside, perhaps mowing one's lawn. Here's the link to the beer description page, but the gist is:

Weedwacker is essentially a Bavarian hefeweizen. Except it isn’t. Weedwacker is exactly the same beer as Fancy Lawnmower Beer but we ferment it with Bavarian hefeweizen yeast instead of kölsch yeast. It is light and refreshing but has a spicy clove note and some banana esters that come from the different yeast. While it is a close relation to Lawnmower, it tastes completely different. Also, Weedwacker is our only unfiltered year-round beer. Expect to see some yeast at the bottom of the bottle.

Huh, maybe I'll try the Weedwacker. In between Pimm's cups and bourbon and gingers. I was at Ave. again last night with B and my boss btw. Love that grilled cheese.

you may like the Concoction, as well. It doesn't taste much like beer. My blog post about it: [link]

Nora, I will have a sip of your Concoction, I do believe.

Y'all, my first water bill is $172!! 17,000 gallons!! There MUST be leaks somewhere in the line, WTF. They're going to reread the meter, and I'm calling my landlord. I mean, I wasn't even showering every day during that time, and we have a lowflow toilet.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

What a pain, smonster. IIRC, if the leak is in the line to the house, it's the homeowner's responsibility to fix it. I checked this because I got a similarly horrendous bill and was terrified that I was going to have to pay to have my yard dug up. It turned out that they had to replace the meter, which was a messy project, but at least not on my dime.

Just when I thought my office couldn't get messier, I had to unjam the paper shredder. My paper shredder makes diamond-shaped confetti.

You might also check and see if anyone else's water use is going to your meter.
