European style beer in America.....


We took a grown-up field trip to a brewery this week. It was a lot of fun. We took a bus down, so we didn't have to worry about driving. The only bad part....I am not a beer drinker. I did enjoy the tour however, and certainly enjoyed taking blackmail pictures of some of my friends!

The picture of me is in the room where the final part of the brewing process takes place, the fermentation stage. Do you see those big tanks coming out of the ceiling? ........

No?.......... Okay, here is another picture.


So, we spent about half an hour on the tour, and then got to spend about 2 hours in the "Tasting Room". That was a lot of fun.
I probably learned some things about hops and malt and such, but don't ask me 'cause I sure as heck don't remember.
The bus trip home was fun too. I felt like I was in high school or something! Weird.
