3 Taverns Gives Dark Beer Drinkers Sanctuary in the spring.

I wanted see blogger and all around man about town (and the country for that matter), Ale Sharpton, and talk to him about giving a shout out to my old workplace and very under appreciated beer spot Melton's App and Tap about their 20th Anniversary this weekend.  Great folks, and they've been in business for 20 years, y'all...must be doing something right.  Also, they are going to have their first cask ever.....what is it, you ask?  Well, it's from Michigan.  It has some honey in it, and I think Ale would say..."It's SLAMMIN'"  If you're going to have your first cask on your 20th birthday....that's a heck of a one to start with.

I think I actually heard angels sing, y'all
Quasimodo


The other great thing going on this weekend in my part of the Brew South is 3 Taverns releasing their Quasimodo Quadruple, their spring seasonal.  I was hanging out to meet with Ale, but I wasn't on the official "list".  To my rescue rode in the Brewmaster, Brian Purcell.  Thanks a bunch to Brian for penciling me in last minute.

Joran with another great Belgian Style
winner.  Quasimodo 


You can tell that the Brew South is coming along amazingly when a brewery has a Belgian Quad come out as the weather is getting warmer.  For a dark and malty beer drinker like myself (and I know some of y'all) It's like having a Sanctuary from everyone trying to do the same thing with their spring beers.  Hey,  I like spring beers too....it's just nice to have a CHOICE to drink something else if I like.

So, today is the day.  I get a sense of freedom of choice even as the thermometer creeps up.  Quasimodo makes me hear the chiming of the bells and their song makes me Happy.

Happy Quasimodo Day, everyone.  Now put a hump in your back and go drink some great beer.

Cheers.
