Today's beer is the Double D Blonde Ale from Hop Valley Brewing, which we picked up in Whole Foods and drank back in the hotel to close out the night. It had a clear gold color with a fair amount of effervescence and a white head. You get the aroma of grain, and this is an easy drinking beer with flavors of wheat and barley. Checks in at 4.9% ABV. With a name like Double D, I was expecting something., perhaps.... a bit more full sized from this beer.
Hotels need to start providing me with pint glasses |
Thing to Think About Today:
The Pacific Northwest is an incredibly beautiful region filled with countless outdoor adventures. Which totally explains why we waited in line for fifteen minutes last night to eat doughnuts. But not just any doughnuts - Voodoo Dooughnut, home of possibly the greatest doughnuts in the world. Look, I love Dunkin Donuts as much of the next guy, but my local DD doesn't offer up the Old Dirty Bastard, a raised doughnut with chocolate frosting, crushed Oreos, and peanut butter on top. Voodoo also offers up delights like the Memphis Mafia, which is glazed fried dough with banana and cinnamon, with chocolate frosting, peanut butter, peanuts, and chocolate chips on top. I can't even begin to to imagine how much weight I gained during this trip, but having the chance to eat at places like Voodoo is totally worth it.
The Voodoo Doll doughnut. Your doughnuts are now irrelevant. |
