Beer

Unlike some of my friends, beer is not my drink of choice. However, from time to time, I get hit with an insatiable palate that simply craves a cold refreshing beer. There are a few microbrews I fancy but I still haven’t pulled the trigger on going outside my comfort zone to try new suds. That’s where Tasting Table comes to the rescue!  TT provided some great ideas on how to jazz up your beer. These squeeze in your can mixtures are a great way to take your plain ol’ beer from ‘aight to “ahh-mazing”.
