It seems like just last week we were at Sesame Place and we were right back again this Saturday. So after a day of water rides and roller coasters and finally fireworks at 9:00 there was still enough time to go to Isaac Newtons for a beer or two. Naturally the kids were asleep before we left the parking lot of Sesame Place. I started with a Duvel Green. After a day like today this was the perfect beer. As far as I'm concerned it is just as good as the regular Duvel without the big alcohol punch. The only problem I had with this beer is that I finished it in about 10 minutes. At least that saved me time to have another. This time I chose Undercover Shut-Down Ale from Lagunitas. I had this beer before and enjoyed it a lot. Same thing this time. It is bitter and sweet with big alcohol (9.7%). It was a nice ending to a great day.
In other news I tapped a new keg yesterday. It is Saison DuPotts from Dock Street Brewing Company. I love these farmhouse ales and this one is a great example of this style. It is 5.75% abv and has a wonderful dry finish. We had a party yesterday to celebrate the Fourth of July and I discovered one thing about this beer. It is one of those rare beers that I really enjoy and yet my Mom can enjoy as well. Even though I had her beloved Miller Lite at the house she chose to have a Saison DuPotts. Awesome.
