So. I've recently learned that Asheville has been named Beer City USA. Now, I don't know how official that is, but it definitely makes sense. There is a multitude of local breweries and cool bars here, and an awesome beer selection in just about every store and gas station I go to. I know I am only 20, but I can certainly appreciate a good brew. I can thank my brother and boyfriend for that :)
Last night we picked up a 6 pack of Post Road Pumpkin Ale
This is hands down the best Pumpkin Ale I've ever had. It smelled amaziiiiing! Ugh, I couldn't get my nose out of the bottle. It was full of yummy spices and had a very definite pumpkin flavor. So perfect for this cold mountain weather.
Apparently early American Colonialists used pumpkin in their beer a lot because they were plentiful and nutritious. Cool little factoid for ye all. Kudos, colonialists!
I think I'll have one before we walk downtown. Night!
I should of known you two would find another cool beer. Ha ha! Interesting pumpkin fact. Hope you kids are having fun. Miss you!
