For my birthday, Catherine and I went to Iron Hill. YUMMY!

I had a $25 credit from their mug club and we also had a $25 American Express gift card. Makes dinner very nice when the total cost out of pocket is $20.

I enjoyed a Delmonico Steak with horseradish mashed potatoes and Catherine had the Pork Tenderloin, which she though was over spiced. I thought it yummy, but it was done up with holiday spices and that could be off putting if you are not looking for that.

On the beer front, I had a large mug of their Pumpkin Ale. Made with pumpkin pie filling, it is a smooth sweet pumpkin ale, verses the spicey ones, say from Weyerbacher. I also had their American Ale on Nitro since their cask was broken It was very velvety that way and quite enjoyable.

We took a growler of their Oktoberfest Pilsner home, which is waiting patiently for this evening.

One thing that was nice about the evening was the couple next to us. A gentleman there celebrating his 60th with his daughter. It was also his birthday, and he also had a bitchin’ name - Dave. Very cool.

And Iron Hill gives you a free desert if it is your birthday Makes it that much more yummy.

[I just went and read this and realized I used "yummy" four times. That is what you get when you are writing and interrupted by the phone]
