Did you know? I love beer

What am I drinking tonight? Great Lakes Grassroots Saison. It tastes like an asparagus lambic, if that makes sense to you. Strangely enough, I do NOT like asparagus. As in, I won't order food if it comes with asparagus. But I like this beer. Also, for your viewing pleasure, my artsy photo gallery/love letter to Imperial Mad Hatter from New Holland! Yes! I love it! As a beergirl who an honestly say her all-time favorite beer is DREADNAUGHT from Three Floyds, which is a super-hoppy Imperial IPA -- The Imperial Hatter is equally hoppy and delicious, with more port-like qualities like the Dogfish 120. I know hops aren't in vogue as much as they once were, but I LOVE THEM!!
In reality TV:
Melissa is all about the pointe, isn't she? Oh, by the way, aren't we all happy for Jillian and Ed??? I am so happy for them. He's a Cubs fan, dontcha know. Yeah!! Go Cubs!! 12-0 today!!
I did a staff tasting/training with the super deluxe team at the ELYSIAN HOTEL today. Andreas and his team love beer. Even the ones who thought beer was fizzy yellow water -- I showed them the light. This hotel is AMAZING -- can't wait for it to open. If you need me on any given Thursday after 5 pm, I'll be in their lounge.
