I wasn't always a beer snob until recently. Labatt was always my go to beer for many years. I guess when all of the brewing companies started popping up every where it just made me curious. So I was on a mission to try as many different kinds of beer that I could get my hands on. I know what you're thinking. Aren't you afraid of getting a huge beer gut? Well, I did give that some thought, and I figured I would have to cut back on my desserts, and add some extra workout time. After all some beer could be considered a dessert. I started out with wheat beers and Lagers. Then I tried some seasonal beers like summer shanty, and one of my favorites still today, Oktoberfest. Then I would discover that these brewing companies were bottling delicious beers from all over my state, and all over the US readily available at my local liquor store.
When I first walked in and saw the selection of beer to choose from, well, I was like a kid in a candy store. Stouts, Porters, IPAs. You name it, they had it in every flavored beer you could imagine. Creme brulee, mocha. Fig, Chocolate, just to name a few. If there was a beer heaven, this was it. Of course drinking at home would be much more responsible than going to a pub each week to sample, so I usually stop off at beer heaven once a week to pick up a brew on my way home from work. I even joined a beer group on Facebook to give a review and post a pic.What will I do after I've sampled every beer there is available to me? Start all over again, of course.
