Beer at Browning's

Hi blog readers, if there are any of you still out there.

I went to Browning's after work yesterday, inspired by Josh's recent review, and tasted some of the best beer anywhere.

My friend Liz and I had a flight of beers, and we both decided we prefer the lighter beers. While the dark beers are probably great, we're just not dark-beer people. 

Food critic Marty Rosen joined us and Brewmaster Brian Reymiller came out for a chat.

I fell in love with the Browning's Whit, which is similar to the Belgian White beers that I prefer. We also had the hummus platter, which was great. Our server came out and offered us a slice of orange for our beer, but we declined. I don't like fruit in my beer. Just seems silly, though I know Blue Moon is normally served that way.

From there, I went to Monkey Wrench and hung out on the roof. Liz and Marty decided not to join, but I met up with my friend Niki and also ran into several other friends there. I had a PBR and a Blue Moon. The PBR because I'm poor and the Blue Moon because my friend Sara was buying. Yeah!
