As some of you may remember, Animated Meat first came to life in 2008 as a way to document some sights that managed to slip through the cracks of most popular travel websites. You may also remember that the original website was built on Apple's now defunct iWeb. From there, it migrated over to WordPress where it met an untimely demise at the hands of Russian hackers. Many of those old, pre-2012 entries have found a new home here in the Before the Now section. I would consider these posts as my starting place as a writer, probably comparable to a musician's first demo tapes. They are very rough, but I took them all seriously and wrote each one with passion. While I would like to believe that I have matured in my abilities as a writer, it is my hope that I carry this same blind passion into all of my new efforts.
The Black Sheep is a great, low stress pub where you can forget about the fact that you just drove for twelve hours straight. The menu has all the standard pub fare plus some vegetarian selections.
They have a great selection of beers and a knowledgeable staff. I hate when I ask for a drink recommendation and the server tells me she doesn’t know because she doesn’t drink. Big thanks to the crew from The Black Sheep for recommending the Framboise Lambic. Now Mai has a beer she can drink.
