Wow, where did the month go? I assure you, that while the site has been quiet as a ghost, there has been no such respite for the livers of the Frosty crew. I myself have a backlog of over 12 reviews to add. So without further ado, I will begin the 2010 review season with that celebrated Frosty Goodness tradition: getting free beer from my co-workers.

This time around, we welcome a new face into the stable of home-brew heroes: Todd Stadelhofer. When not battling the ravages of bad software code, Todd takes the time to make some ridiculously meticulous beer varieties. Todd has the current distinction of being the only guy in cubicle land who posts his recipe outside his cubicle. Beer geeks are awesome!

Todd’s inaugural beer was a tasty dry hopped Pale Ale title “Springboard”. I couldn’t tell you more about the varieties of hops or anything, cause that’s not the sort of thing I do. I can tell you however, that despite not generally liking overly hoppy beer, I found Springboard to be wonderful for an all night design session. I was hesitant at first, but man, nothing makes a crap-tastic project go by quickly quite like a 22oz. of refreshing Pale Ale.

So here’s to you Todd. May your brewing skills live on, and your beer geekery reach new heights. My liver salutes you.
