Notes
So Simons Perfect Spot. In case you haven't seen Rubin And Ed here is the plot summary. Simon is the name of Rubins dead cat.
Reclusive Rubin Farr teams up with vocal but unsuccessful multi-level salesman Ed Tuttle on a quest to bury Rubin's dead cat in the "perfect spot." Their trip takes them across Utah's desert where they have run-ins with Ed'd ex-wife Rula and an elusive Andy Warhol critic
So how we got here. Roxy invited one of here co-workers and his wife over for beers one evening. They grow hops at there house and he raved about the awesomeness of leaf hops vs pellet. He leaves to go pick up his wife from work to bring her over for beers. When he comes back he has a bag of cascade leaf hops from his freezer for me! Awesome! Beers are being enjoyed and a story starts about how the wifes cat died in the winter and she has a place up at a cabin, or her folks house, someplace they could not get to due to weather when the cat died so they had bagged the dead cat up and placed it in the freezer until they could get to the place. Well Rubin kept Simon, his dead cat, in the freezer until he could find the perfect spot. From then on the bag of leaf hops became dead cat hops (Roxy) because they were kept in a freezer with a dead cat. Roxy later went to the coworkers house and picked more cascade cone and used all of those + the dead cat hops in this pale ale. THERE IS NO DEAD CAT IN THE BEER. THE HOPS WERE IN A FOOD SAVER BAG AND I SURE THE CAT WAS ALSO. So we'll have to change the name. This was going to be a one time brew never to be brewed again just use up some leftover malts etc etc. Never thought I would like it as much as I have.
