So very true.
Welcome back to Drinking & Thinking, a newsletter for people that like hanging with good beer.
Beer Garden View Of The Week
So yeah, beautiful view over their in MA, Tree House. But did I hear “Sandwich Deck”!? You have a SANDWICH DECK!? Dreamy.
Speaking of beer gardens, props to everyone that worked in the beer garden at Tioga Sequoia Brewing in Fresno last Saturday during FresYes Fest. Over 20K showed up (including me) and they handled:
Packaging Of The Week
Yes, I want to try this beer from a box someday. I have already tried beer from a bag and it’s cool, so this is gotta be too.
Drinking Session Music
The Grammies are Sunday. There is going to be plenty of music I will have not heard prior, I am sure. That’s okay, I’ll still watch. The only questions I have is “What beers will I drink while watching?” And “Who will win rock album and song of the year?”
While I love the Foo Fighters (rest in rock, Taylor), I do not like “Waiting On A War”, so I hope Wolfgang wins for “Distance”.
Likey Beer For Grammies: Henhouse Brewing’s Constantine Is Charlemagne DHIPA.
Links To Beer: Are You Proud Of Your State’s Beer?
I always enjoy a good VinePair.com article paired with Untappd content. They have put together this map of the most Checked In Beer In Every State:
So very proud of California for making it Pliny (and not something like 805). Hope your state is as cool as mine.
Yes, I Did Miss Last Week
Sorry about not putting out an issue the previous weekend! No real excuse, just wasn’t happy with the lack of items I had to talk about so I decided to give it a rest for once.
Hope you have a great week relaxing with your beers. Thank you for the read!
