A Spirited New Year!
*Are you prepared for the truth?*
@flyingdogbrewery says: “The Truth's sharp hop bitterness begins with pine on the nose and evolves into bright citrus and subtle stone fruit flavors. Developed alongside over a dozen Single-Hop Imperial IPAs. The truth was three years in the making and has some of the most unique hop varieties available today.”
The Truth is this complex, the fruit-forward character leaves a really sweet bitterly taste- but not too much so. Tastes of pineapple, sweet citrus and tangerine.
Abv: 8.7%
IPU: 120
Style: Double IPA
Pairs well with political thrillers, action & adventure novels. Some of my favorite included in picture. Don’t forget the sweet sounds of the Marines bottle opener. Have you read any by these authors?
@authortedbell Hawke series is amazing. I’ve just gotten into English adventure story and I won’t be slowing down. Lord Alexander Hawke is a descendant of English pirate Blackhawke. Now a decorated naval hero for England, he gets tapped by the American spy agencies for sensitive missions. Incredibly written.
@vinceflynn.comoff Term Limits. This could be the greatest debut for any author today. Everyone should probably read this book. And do so, today. Many books later, & I’m still enthralled by one of America’s greatest operatives: Mitch Rapp.
Tom Clancy: damn near where it all began for me. — President Ronald Reagan received "The Hunt for Red October" as a gift and called Clancy's first published novel, "my kind of yarn." From there, Clancy made a trip to the White House to meet with Reagan. @marccameronbooks is leaving his legacy on the pages of Jack Ryan novels. Maybe my protagonist will live so long to be called a classic.
I started reading Dale Brown by accident. It’s true. I went to order @authordanbrown book Angels & Demons but gotten too excited.
The rest is history. I’ve collected and read all of the heroic exploits of Patrick McLanahan.

Comics and Beer- the perfect pairing
Wine and Cheese? Fancy. Cigar and bourbon? Classic. Comics and Beer? The perfect pairing.
Get your old-school inner geek on with this week's Friday Night Flights special edition of Lost City Library's "BookIt! The Podcast".
Hey, a superhero still has to blow off some steam, right? I imagine it's not at all easy saving the planet from evil villains day in and day out. No, I'm sure people like Spidey still have to unwind from their studies and super strength. And what do you suppose Peter Parker picks? I'm guessing a PBR. Yes, everyone's favorite college student on a budget drink. We know you secretly yearn for that old college drink. Just like you do comic books!
Marvel Versus D.C? X-MEN Versus Batman?
Speaking of Wolverine, wouldn't you pair this mutant from Canada with something a little....Canadian? Sure you would. Check out our show for more MARVEL-ous perfect pairings.

Friday Night Flights Salutes Sir Sean Connery
Lost City Library & BookIt! The Podcast says our somber farewell to an icon, the original Bond, and knighted fellow Mr. Sean Connery. Dead at 90 surrounded by family and loved ones. We recognize his accomplishments, as we salute his many talents, movies, and career over a lifetime.
Once again we look forward to saying adios to 2020, we thankfully touch ever so briefly on this exhausting election (your host gets a little punny) and we discuss some cool motion graphics.
Shout out to everyone listening, subscribing, and watching on all of our social platforms. From Facebook to YouTube, and our website to our podcasts, thank you sincerely for tuning in, commenting, and shopping our online store.
You can listen to "Shaken or Stirred" to catch up on all things Bond and the first portrayal starring Connery right here, or wherever other podcasts are found! So forget the election time blues, and pick up a couple of ice-cold brews, and join us for another Friday Night Flights Podcast.

Spooktacular Friday Night Flight
Weekend boozy thoughts
Just a ramblin' man going on about wine, beer, books, and cigars. You can catch BookIt! The Podcast every Friday night for our segment "Friday Night Flights." Now streaming everywhere you listen online!
I'm a huge fan of this particular season. I enjoy the Fall foliage. I enjoy transitioning to heavier wine and beer. But you know what really grinds my gears? Changing of the clocks. Who wants to feel tired at 4pm? You go to work and it's dark. You come home from work and it's dark. This outdated tradition must come to a swift ending. We should not stand for feeling tired AND depending on your location, freezing off such sensitive body parts. It's cruel and inhumane; quite frankly.
What are your thoughts on red wine and boozier brews during the winter snap? White in summer? Is it time for that tradition to be eradicated as well? Perhaps.

Friday Night Pairings
Lost City Library's BookIt! The Podcast is back with another episode of Friday Night Flight. Each week, now and throughout the fall season, we'll explore all the best books. beer, and cigar pairings. A lot of updates to share concerning our merchandise, blogs, and other content. So much happening since the last podcast for sure!
We have yet another amazing legal thriller and courtroom drama from John Grisham. A Time for Mercy debuted 10/13 and picks up where A Time to Kill leaves off in Clanton, Mississippi. One year later (1990) with the same hero protagonist (Jake Brigance) defending a young man from a certain rush to judgement and even quicker execution. This book isn't just timeless, its timely. Go out, buy a copy, and you'll understand why it's just that.
Our merchandise is now available on our website, www.thelostcitylibrary.com!! Very excited to be able to drop that little bit of info :) We have tees, long sleeves, hoodies, and more! All sizes, both men & women. Browse different color's of each, and also shop our store for things like beach bags and phone cases.

Bourbon Night Flight
It's finally Bourbon Night!!
Lost City Library's BookIt! The Podcast is eagerly (and expertly) reviewing 3 amazing bourbon's. Jack Daniel's Tennessee whiskey, Jim Beam's Double Oak, and Redemption Bourbon. All three are classics, all three are tasty, and all three are a perfect pairing to your budget!
JD Tennessee Whiskey:
80% Corn. 12 % Rye. 10 % Malt. Nose: Light/ Sweetness. Palate: Dry Spice. Oily nuts. Finish: Sweeet and toasty oak
Jim Beam Double Oak:
77% Corn. 13% Rye. 10% Barley. Palate: DRY DRY DRY :) Some kind of dehydrated cherry flavor for sure. Notes of char- giving it a long peppery finish
Redemption Bourbon:
75% Corn. 21% Rye. 4% Barley. Palate: Somewhat watery, grain other times. Finishes a little short. It feels like it's missing a pop. Appearance: Gold in the glass. Nose: Sour note present. Oak taste gives way to a more wood or pencil shaving finish.
Friday Night Flights and a Flannel
Round 2 of Lost City Library's BookIt! The Podcast! "Fright Night Flights." This week's episode won't be nearly as awkward as the debut podcast. I think. That's for you all today decide.
Now that it's gone chilly, we explore our flights in the comfort on a fine flannel :) Will this be a weekly attire? I hope so!
This week, we talk stronger seasonal brews, a perfect pairing for those foodies out there, and how sheltering in place is starting to pop buttons. So let's start popping bottles for another episode of BookIt! The Podcast "Friday Night Flights."

Fore! is an expression. Four is my handicap?
Fun Fact: Four is not my handicap, but Fore! is what I yell. A lot. Around the golf course.
In this episode of Lost City Library's BookIt! The Podcast, we explore bad shots, good beer, and fine cigars. Although my round on the links wasn't at all indicative of a celebratory cigar, I still managed to sneak one right around the 11th hole. Why that particular hole? Well, for starters: timing. I know my average time it takes me to enjoy my stogie to the fullest :) But I also made what was quite possibly my one great shot of the round.
Cigar "pair" for the course
We have two different cigars both in wrapper and body. We discuss which one to enjoy, during your round.
First Cut of course.
Troegs (Hershey, PA) First Cut is a great choice here, not only in pairing the course -first cut- but also a go-to for many a cigar.
You don't want to miss this perfect pairing episode of BookIt! The Podcast
"Fall" into Beer
"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." Or should I say..."Hoppy"?!
In this episode of "Fall into Beer" we examine the seasonality of beer. We look at the best brews for your holiday cheer, and for those bibliophiles- the perfect beer and book pairing!
We also take a look at the incredible rise of craft beer, the US growth of startup indies, and study the complex flavor profiles of your favorite hop.
All that and more on this edition of BookIt! The Podcast.
Shaken or Stirred?
All things Bond gets discussed. We examine the perfect martini, Bond's preference for his most requested cocktail, and try to pair it with a fine cigar.
Also in this episode, we look back through the many film titles and books, our favorite portrayals, and of course, talk about the upcoming installment of No Time to Die, as we say a forever farewell to a damn good Bond, Mr. Daniel Craig.
If you have any favorite pairing that goes along with Bond films, please leave messages, comments, and of course, please follow us on FB and IG @LostCityLibrary.
A Classic Gin & Fitz Pairing
Listener leaves feedback and my monotone response to that. Also, things are heating up in the North East so we try to cool things off with a refreshing pairing of the classic gin and tonic, another classic novel and a fine cigar that will make you think you were sitting inside of a speakeasy. All that, and so much more on another edition of BookIt! The Podcast. Please follow us on Instagram and Facebook @LostCityLibrary.
A Perfect Pairing
What goes into the perfect pairing of books, drink, and cigars?
We've all become more creative as we adapt to our new normal. For me, I take a look at the cover art or title of my book. I'll use a word from the title and pair that with the label on a particular wine and the wrap of a cigar. For example, I can sit down with author Brad Thor's book titled "Near Dark" and match that with a dark roast coffee. Now, wouldn't that go nicely with Rocky Patel's Dark Dominion cigar? There you have it! That's the secret.
Listen to more unique and creative ways the Lost City Library enjoys a relaxing evening with a perfectly paired book, drink and cigar!
Wake up....By Going Dark.
Wake Up!
This episode we explore the perfect pairing to encompass your morning ritual. We agree that a strong coffee roast blends well with a full, rich cigar. We'll offer you the two perfect blends and what to "book" for your early morning reading pleasures to start your day off right. Don't forget to checkout my other episodes and of course, feel free to find me on facebook.com/lostcitylibrary and instagram/lostcitylibrary. And as always, drop a message, leave a comment or offer up a silly joke of the day! Cheers to the finer things in life. Happy reading!
Summertime Red? Wine not?!
