My sommelier Matt didn’t have to sell me on the 12 pack offered by Full Sail of their Session Lager. In fact, it’s already been one of my ‘Beers of the Month’ here on Goodtaste! It’s an All-American lager; blonde and super smooth. Expect the price point on these to be between $11-13 for the pack.

Have a pint and unwind at Sharky’s!
I had the incredible pleasure of previewing a wonderful beer dinner featuring Alaskan Brewery beers and Sharky’s American Grill on Eldridge Pkwy in Houston.
Full Sail Session Lager
It’s tough to make everyone happy…ESPECIALLY when it comes to choosing the right beer for your particular palate. Light to dark on the malt scale determines the bulk of your preference, because it ultimately determines what you desire in taste.
H-E-B’s Burger Bash!
Tired of the same old burger? Then check out these healthy, delicious new salmon burgers from H-E-B. Talk about good taste – Italian Bruschetta Burgers with Tomatoes and Parmesan, Fiesta Jalapeno Cheddar Burgers chock-full of zesty spice and rich cheese…
Keep cool with a nice brew this summer
As you know, I love a good glass of wine. But in the summer, sometimes an iced-cold beer is best. Matt Wheeler, the Sommelier at the H-E-B Bunker Hill, has some suggestions on finding a beer to beat the heat. Alamo Golden Ale is a smooth beer.
Texas Beer Festival a big success
We had a great time at the first ever Texas Beer Fest at the Humble Civic Center. About 200 craft beers were there for the tasting. The event was put on by the Craft Brewing Revolutionary Guard, and the cool thing is they bought all the beer being sold at the fest—great way to support local breweries!
$600 Bottle of Beer… Really?
Really! Sam Adams Utopias beer must be to beer drinkers what Bordeaux is to wine lovers. It’s said to be the strongest beer ever brewed with an alcohol content of about 25% by volume, and it comes with a hefty price tag. The coveted beer is apparently a bit difficult to find (that ole supply […]
Beer Pairings Winning Me Over
I’m a novice when it comes to knowing beers, but I admit, I’ve now been to two beer pairings and loved every minute! My most recent “adventure” was at Bohanan’s beautiful new bar, where we paired different beers with different cheeses. Guess what: some of those beers paired better with the cheeses than wine!
Gruene Music & Wine Fest This Weekend

Summer Food at Gristmill
Any time of year is a good time to go to Gruene, Texas…but summertime is perfect for enjoying the river, flip-flops and good food with ice cold beer.
Fire Up the Grill
Memorial Day weekend and we’re firing up the grill – actually we fire up the grill routinely. I’m a huge red wine fan, so it’s usually a steak of some sort that goes on our grill. We spice them up with a ‘Montreal’ seasoning that you can get at HEB even though my friend, the […]
