I'm just now relaxing after the Marathon du Beer Blog of this weekend. It's the kind of effort that only a former host of the Session can truly appreciate. Hosting the Session is really a lot of fun, but it's also a quite a bit of work—all worth it, however.

That's right, it's the "announce the #IPADay Haiku contest winner" time! I do wish blogging had commercial interruptions, so I could say "Right after a word from our sponsor..." ya' know just for a little drama. But since it doesn't, I might as well just get on with it. Three great entries this go-round, by the way.

Last but not least, an anonymous poster questioned #IPADay haikus, thusly:
On a steamy afternoon?
Prefer a Resin...
All three are strong contenders, but I think the edge... goes... to...

Congrats Curtis, I'll get a hold of you to find out where to send your swag!
Ah yes, another successful #InternationalInsertyourchoiceofbeerstyleDay haiku contest. I will sleep soundly tonight, for sure.
