Greetings, Crew!
We had a blast at the 2023 St Patrick's Day party and beer tasting last weekend. Lots of great food kept us happy while we visited and sampled the beverages. This year's 17 submissions ranged from dark to light, alcoholic to non-alcoholic, and liquid to semi-solid. What!!??? Read on..
The most unusual entries (by taste) were Roxanne's Moscow Mule Jelly Beans and Mary's Hormel Chili Cheese Brew. We had Hairless Dog, the non-alcoholic beer from Lynne and Phill, and Stubborn Soda Classic Root Beer from Emma and Ben. Scott's brew came from Finland, Nick's from Germany, and Rich's from Hawaii. There remained a mix of beers ranging from innovative to Coors Light!
The winner of the Bad Beer Board was Roxanne with those unique(!) jelly beans.
Second place went to Leah for Fantasy Factory Stout. Yeah, that's the one with the gun-totin' ninja cat riding a fire-breathing unicorn on the label. That's Leah's second year winning second place, which is pretty good considering she is too young to drink and therefore makes her selections by label quality alone. First place this year was - drum roll please - Stubborn Soda Classic Root Beer! That's the second time in recent years that a non-alcoholic soda took the top honor.
Thanks to everyone for playing. Congratulations to the winners, and I hope you all can use this information to choose your poison for next year!
See you around the Galaxy!
Mary
