THE ROOT OF BEERS!

Hello all,
Got to get right to it. To tell you the truth, I didn't have any story tonight. Oh I thought of a ton of them but with everything that took place this weekend, I believe a targeted blog is what the doctor ordered.
Vicki and I went to the Saratoga Brewing Company on Saturday afternoon and as usual had a great time. They are friendly and help with your beer selection in the tasting room.
Well this day was great! I was very happy to discover an Autumn Lager. I have to say since I've been on this adventure I have enjoyed all the IPA's, Stouts and Porters I could handle but like the rest of us, I look to the spring and summer for new additions like Bocks and Pilsners and on this day Lager.
I liked it very much. This beer had a great amber color and a nice dry finish really set this one apart. Not to the level of an IPA, but bolder than the few lagers I've had. So try a beer that will satifsfy.
I enjoyed it with a hamburger and fries. I can see it going along side a rack of ribs too.
Now to the Root - BEER that is. Wow!!! What a root beer! If you haven't tried it, you don't know what you're missing. This root beer brought me back to a time when I was so much younger. This was one of the best I've ever tasted. I shared the jug with my father in-law. He's a root beer guy and he believes that it is the best.
Just to let you know I made a root beer float on Sunday night and man, oh man, I may move to have one of them at least once a month.

So do yourself a favor and try the Autunm Lager. At least you've got to try the root beer!

'Til next time........BEERS to you!!!

Ken
