Beer Fest!!!

Every year in my family the cousins do a gift exchange. Last year my awesome cousin Jenny gave us a membership to the beer of the month club and this year my cousin Katie and her husband Joshua gave us tickets to the Beer Summit in Boston. Is there a theme starting here? Who cares we'll take it!! We rounded up Marty and Maribel, rented some rooms in Boston and prepared ourselves for a night of beer tasting!

Beer Summit was held in this place called The Castle in Boston and had over 60 brewers presenting their brews. Once you arrived they gave you a little beer mug and instucted you to go forth and taste...and taste we did. Each brewer brought at least 4 beers, if not more, for you to try...needless to say there was beer everywhere. We were particularly excited to see that Sam Adams had brought their elusive (and expensive) Utopias. This particular beer sells for $200, has an alcohol content of 27% and tastes more like Port than any kind of beer. It was delish, and unlimited it we wanted it. This is the life. After 4 hours of tasting we stumbled walked to the nearest pub for some more celebration and lots of greasy food. It was a great night!

Thank you Katie and Josh!!

Cheers!
