Craft Beer Week

Obviously, this is like a holiday for us beer lovers. I’ve taken advantage of this a couple of times this week.

First, we start with Black Label Brewing. I visited there on Saturday and completely fell in love. The atmosphere was inviting, and gave me a strange sense of home. The building used to be where Merlyns used to reside, during the time of my life that I practically lived at that place. Drinking beer there just gave me a sense of calm and happy. Not to me ton delicious.  

 

I fell head over heals for the American Wheat (pictured above) It was smooth, yet just hoppy enough. I love me some IPAs and hops, but this was just enough.

I did try just about all the beers there, and they were all exceptional. The Spring Session IPA came in at a close second. 

Drink their beer. Enjoy.

And the next on the list, happens to be River City. They happen to have one of my top beers of all time on their list ( girlfriend ale) and they had an event at the Checkboard bar. 

They had four beers on tap, and pints were $1.25. YES! I said one dollar and twenty five cents! 
Best. Wednesday. Ever

  
Between Heather and I, our six beers ended up costing us $7.50

River city is one of my favorite breweries around. Their beer range is pretty good, going from the light Girlfriend and huckleberry the River City Red. They usually have a stout or two along the way. My Boyfriend fell in love with the Ohko koko (which could be totally spelled wrong, but couldn’t find it online 😂)

I always go for the Girlfriend if offered, and you can’t go wrong with a blonde ale, am I right?

I’m hoping to experience more of this week, but just wanted to blog about it right now!

Be well and drink beer friends!
