So, the blog is called HowBeerSavedMyLife, however, once a quarter I take a break from beer. That's right, 10 days, no alchohol. Why? It's important to me and I want to make sure that what I'm doing is for the right purpose.
Believe me, when there's good beer around (scratch that, great beer) and it would far too easy to have multiple beers every evening. Although, at an average of 7.5% on up to 16% ABV it does tend to keep me at no more than two, save for rare occasions and celebrations. Like most special occasions I have set back that exciting bottle for that day in Caldera's, Hop Hash.
Discipline and self-control is another reason. It's important to me that my beautiful kids see their father and that I'm a good example for them.
With that being said, don't offer to buy me a beer this week. It certainly would have paired well with my dinner. It would taste great on the first truly warm days of the year. But.........I will take a raincheck!
Cheers
