A New Season of Good Beer

A New Season (?) of Good Beer Ahead!!!!

First off, I hope that everybody had a wonderful Labor Day Holiday and did some fine beer tastings or beer and food pairings. Good food, good friends, and definitely GREAT BEER!!!

In roughly ten days the official change of the seasons will be upon us. As a diehard boater, I get emotional and sad to see the summer season go away (as it is my favorite time of year) and succumb to the fresh colors of Autumn. I love the long days, the BBQ's, boating on the water, lake and ocean,  (I swear that I was a PIRATE in a former life) and enjoying the good company of family and friends (with a beer of course). However, as it is bound to happen every year (well soon maybe not with the way that global warming is effecting the climate) that change of seasons also brings in a change of malt beverages to extenuate the flavors of the upcoming fall harvest.

With the resident fall beers approaching, actually they are probably starting to pop up on store shelves already, it is time to start all over again with a taste and palate swap. From the lagers, to the ryes, to even the ciders, there is going to be a good beer drinking season ahead. So in the next couple of months, we will have to delve into some of those exceptional fall beer offerings to see {and taste} what is is going to be pouring down the old gullet. And of course, this will all be leading up to the crème de la crème of ALL beer festivals, the one and only OKTOBERFEST!!!!!!

PROST, PROST, PROST!!!!!!

And as always, RAISE A PINT OF ALE AND ENJOY!!!!!!!!! CHEERS
