My Trip To Florida

Well, I just returned from Florida. I don't travel too often, so when I do, I make sure to buy beer that isn't available to me in Louisiana. I was looking forward to finding some Terrapin and Lazy Magnolia, which you can't buy in Louisiana. Upon arriving in Florida, I looked for any wine or beer stores, but didn't find much in the beginning of the trip. I had to settle for Winn-Dixie. I looked at their beer selection, which wasn't bad. I decided to try SweetWater Hummer. This was the first time I tried this great Belgian White Ale brewed with coriander and orange peel. The orange taste stands out and it was a great beer for the beach! I was really excited about this one and would recommend it! I also bought some Kona Fire Rock Pale Ale. This was a really good pale ale and also the first time I tried it. Not bad at all and I would buy it again! My last selection from Winn-Dixie was Yuengling Traditional Lager. I had this beer long ago in a gift pack, but wanted to try it again. I hear a lot of people putting this beer down, however, I found it to be really good and I really enjoyed it. I have a lot of respect for the oldest American Brewery. My Winn-Dixie visit turned out to be a good one.

I really wanted to find more beer while in Destin, but my time was running out. On the last day of our trip, we went to McGuire's Irish Pub, which I knew had a gift shop with liquor and beer. I was surprised to find some Terrapin Golden Ale and Dogfish Head in the cooler! The Terrapin was great! Very light and tasty while watching the sunset. I had heard a lot about this beer and it was nice to finally try it out. I still have the Dogfish Head in the fridge. I think I have the Festina Peche, which is peach flavored, but I need to check. I also enjoyed many great beers brewed by McGuire's. I love going here every year!

So overall, I must say my trip was a great beer experience! Looking forward to next year!

For the trip home, I had some left over Terrapin and I purchased some SweetWater Extra Pale Ale. Both are chilling in the fridge. What a great feeling. Oh, I wasnt' able to find Lazy Magnolia. Oh well, maybe next time.

Cheers!

Troegs Sunshine Pils, a great summer beer!

Well, with summer almost here and the temperatures getting so hot, I've put away my heavy beers for the winter and have started looking for lighter beers that are easier to drink. I've started purchasing a lot of European lagers and I've also discovered an American beer that's great for summer! It's Sunshine Pils by Troegs. What an awesome beer! So easy to drink and perfect on those hot days! Try one for yourself and I think you will enjoy it. Cheers!
