Break time on my 25k hike today; I'm pretty sure no one else on the trail has one of these in their backpack. It's a long weekend in Canada (Victoria Day weekend). It would be rude not to celebrate!

 

good beer from a little brewery out in the country brewed in an old barn

 

Hooray for Canada! You guys know what to pack for a hike!

 

So is that Barn One or Bar None? Could be either since you stated it was brewed in a barn.

 

Today I will mostly be drinking Montes Alpha Carmenere. I will decant it into a carafe we bought when travelling on the Orient Express. I realise it's meant for water but it brings back great memories of our honeymoon.
(Don't you just love it when a wine comes in its own wrapping paper?)

 

some cold beer after a long hike..

 

I think that is the idea they were going for.

 

Long weekend here in Canada this past weekend, so lazy afternoons on the deck with beer and snacks...



The beer hiding in my "stubby holder" as my wife calls them, is 312...a nice wheat beer for those warmer days:



My wife travels to Michigan often, and she brings back beer (when she is not bringing back Scotch or Cognac or something else for me) and this one is one we both like quite a lot. The other one we get often is Oberon - another wheat beer only made in warmer months, and one I first had on Mackinac Island several years ago when we were there for the Lilac festival...and with that segue my darker lilacs are fully flowering finally, and they smell fantastic!



The lighter ones flower a bit later in the summer, but I don't see many buds on them this year...too much shade I think.

Cheers, Al

 

Nice Al, Goose Island brewing co. is about a miles from my place! We drink a lot of the 312 here in the summer.

 

I thought you might comment on this beer. We really do enjoy it a lot!
