Ah, the serendipity of Flickr RSS feeds for tags. This photo of Boris and Roland worshipping at a tower of beer showed up in my feed for the tag ‘Vancouver’. They appear to have a lot of work ahead of them, but if you’ll note a later photo, they made excellent progress. Where does one find such a tower? In case you’re wondering, the title of this entry comes from this Robert Browning poem.

That was the first one. We had a second. Both were good, although the every-foamy Granville Island Hefeweizen (German for “wheat beer”) was tastier than the lager.
Love the Granville Island Hefeweizen!
Although I’m sorry I didn’t buy another case of it and take advantage of the freebie glass offer that they had for a limited time at the BCLDB stores earlier this summer.
I just bought a six-pack of Granville Island Winter Ale and am hoping for good things!
I’m sure there’s a story behind the saga of “The Two Towers (of Beer)”. Probably involving Hobbits.
Or little magic pixies.
Or pink elephants.
Anybody want to buy one of these towers for their very own can find it on craigslist: search tower of power. have fun, – cheers!
