Yesterday Nancy and I met in town and we went
first to Brian's office to drop some things off and he had a gift certificate to
Climate City Brewery, so he gave it to us since I told him that was where we
were going... HOW NICE!
Back door:
There are hops growing on a vine along the back
parking lot. Didn't know what they were at first.. had to ask. Apparently this is the best climate for growing hops.
We sat out on the patio. It was sooooo nice. Not
hot, just perfect.
We each had some of their new pumpkin ale
...
I'm not a beer drinker, but this was good!
Nancy had the Chinook Pub Pretzels... baked jumbo
sea salt pretzels served with a whole grain mustard-cheese sauce.
THESE are GOOD!
I had the Black and Blue Nachos ... seasoned
homemade potato chips topped with blackened beef tenderloin, peppered bacon,
caramelized onion-poblano cream sauce, blue cheese, scallions, jack cheese, and
fried onions.........
OMGOOOOD! But too much for just me to eat. They
serve large portions there. I brought most of mine home. Nancy too! LOL, and
these items are listed under "Small Plates". Hmmmmm... let's see... future
breakfast lunch and dinner! For you fellas who like man-sized portions, this is
the place for you!
Later I ran a few errands in Rogue River... Ace
for deer blocks, pharmacy for prescription, and something else I
forgot!
Dinner ... ha!
Chair, TV, wine......
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Saturday.
Ciao.
