Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

[Hurricane Jack]

Tuesday, Lady B and the Kid had an appointment at Vanderbilt for the Kid's annual brain scan. They usually make a day of it and Lady B enjoys beer shopping for local brews when out of town. She's done a pretty good job at returning home with something I'll enjoy, with a few exceptions. This is one of those I really enjoy. Easily identifiable as a pilsner type. It's light, crisp and no heavy mouth feel or explosion of foam, just as one would hope. There is just a bit of sharpness and no fruitiness. It's a bit dry, like a white wine, as someone here once described a beer, yet not so dry you want a glass of water when finished. Just another beer. The crispness and the clean mouth feel make this the best "micro" brew I've tried this summer. Very refreshing, and perfect for a hot day(s). It's a seasonal. 5% ABV.

First things first, BB. I hope she received a good annual report & all is well.

I've seen Nashville Brewing before but don't think I have tried any. The crispness sounds good for a Pils. I'll have to pick some up or give it a try out somewhere. Good review!

I guess I should have added it's a Nashville Brewing Co. product. I take some things for granted with a lot of you guys.

She's well, HJ. Thanks for asking. Great beer for the weather we're having.

Some afternoon pickin' on the porch with my Stetson Fifty, some Siete Leguas & my Epiphone Texan (which didn't make it in the pics).

Late afternoon I sampled a new to me beer, a Surley Grapefruit Supreme. It is a cloudy beer that is smells grapefruit but drinks crisp and dry. On a warm afternoon it is refreshing. For a beer that after reading the ingredient list and advertising sounds pretentious or hip, it is excellent. I will pick some up to put in the beer refrigerator for guests. It is worthy. ttps://surlybrewing.com/beer/grapefruit-supreme/

Cheers on a warm and humid afternoon.

I am struck this evening at the similarity between this beer's taste and that of a soda out of my youth - Squirt. I recall drinking Squirt at the lake cabin on hot days. Perhaps Squirt Original exists. Nothing like the soda with real sugar.
Best, Eric -

Morning cheers. Costa Rica single source roasted yesterday (medium) with farm fresh cream (picked up at farmer's market on Saturday from the farmer only 24hours after pasturization). Butter-fat yummy in fresh roasted coffee.

I have only made 6 cups (6 oz. cups). You are welcome to a cup this morning.

Pils worth taking and that are easily swallowed.

I started this morning in a felt hat and the heat and humidity have me switched to a straw cap for morning coffee. Same coffee from yesterday. Cuppa goodness.

Be well today. Warm, unshaven, coffee drinking, short bald guy, Eric -

Whatever is on my head and two fingers of Macallan go pretty well together!

Home brew paired alongside my rare Peter Grimm straw..taking a break inside my “office”. Pomegranate - Green Tea - Honey -JUN for a mid day boost. Plus it’s big medicine for whooping prostate big “C”.

It was 103* by 10 am, been a real sum beach today

Thanks Bob I appreciate that but mines pretty minor. I ain’t worried about it..something else will get me before it does. I’m thinking something like shot in the back by 19 year old jealous husband at the age of 96.

A quick stop for the staples of life.

Some Dos Equis Ambers.

Then back home for the rest of Tequila Tuesday.

My Gannon Dogbone handled it all like a champ!

Hot temps & high humidity means it's time for straw & some Marg specials to drink.

Love Surly! The food is fantastic as well. That cap screams "summer" Eric!

Bandera and Betty today. I try to support local independent breweries! This is one of my brother in law's favorites. Whenever we are together, some of these will be tasted! I am accused of being a bad influence!

Always appreciate the shape you put on a hat, Ddog. Tell us about that beer.
