Food, Beverages And A Kia In The Arkansas
After a miserable week of holding up in the house fighting a cold I finally got out yesterday.
We rode in to the city for lunch and beverages.
Veggie pizza for Nova and veggie sandwich for me. Each of us tried new beers. Nova had ordered a Magic Hat hefeweizen but was served a Magic Hat #9 (not quite pale ale) instead. She thought it was ok. For me it was a Ballast Point, Victory at Sea (coffee, vanilla imperial stout) which both the ABV and IBUs were too much for my taste. Ballast Point’s Calm Before The Storm is a favorite of mine though.
On the ride back home we spotted this car in the river at nealry the same spot the above photo was taken earlier in the day. Upon our return home I checked local news sites to find no one was seriously injured in the accident.
Woah, that car is some serious stuff! Glad to know the occupants are okay. Magic Hat is brewed about a half mile from my office. Often we smell the brewery on Thursday afternoons. Number 9 is Magic Hat’s flagship beer, apricot flavor (I think) though I’ve never enjoyed it. We have some serious breweries here now with stellar IPAs – those are the one’s I love!
I thought of you when she ordered it knowing it was brewed somewhere up there. Didn’t realize it was that close. I took a sip and thought it was ok. We’ve had a brewery boom here in the last few years also. I’m not real keen on the IPAs but who knows that could change some day. I didn’t use to like the dark beers and now some are my favorites.
Like. There is no “like” button on your blog, so I’ll leave it at that.
Thanks John. I just added a Like button 🙂
