I was telling my friend this morning that series posts with a theme are tough for me. They break from my normal stream-of-conciousness, and require me to do work and think. Wait... what are those things?
The Bonnaroo hat trick finishes off with a libation discussion. It goes like-a-so.
There's a place in Bonnaroo known as the Broo'ers Festival.
Do not venture there.
It is a black hole that shamelessly drains the Schwer bank account, the second weekend of June, annually. They're trying to bankrupt us in there.
Or maybe I should just drink less beer. But whatever.
What was good in the beer tent this year?
From what I remember (the alcohol fuzz is strong with this one...):
Elysian Brewing Company's Super Fuzz: A zippy, fruity maxim of a Blood Orange Pale Ale that was just as amazing as you imagine. The perfect refreshment for a warm day. My Pale Ale tendencies were well-pleased with this one. Elysian's IPA was also exceedingly yummy.
As locals who tromp in every day, we also have the luxury of what we call walking beers. In the past, it was a chance to clean out the beer fridge, but now our amazing friend brings us a huge selection of canned walking beers in trade for staying at our house for the weekend. It's a good deal :) My favorite this year was Tinman Brewing Company's Rosenweiss. It's a German kristallweizen, which is a filtered hefe. As a hefe-lover, this turn to a kristallweizen was easy, and tasty :) Honorable mention walking beers: Terapin Hi-5 IPA and Maggie's Farmhouse. Drink these beers. Be cool.
But wait, there's more to drink in.
My brother-in-law and his girlfriend stayed with us, plus we always share a campsite. They mixed up some margaritas from a special recipe, and left one bottle in our fridge, and another in the cooler at the campsite.
These magic margaritas were a recipe for drunkeness at Bonnaroo. If you can, follow suit.
But mostly, drink beer, ride bikes, and listen to good music, friends.
