Beer and Pancakes

So in the last couple years Kevin has picked up the hobby of beer.  He soaks information up like a sponge so he has become quite the beer connoisseur.  I must admit I have no complaints (as long as he sticks to budget!) and I like it too.  I just can’t remember everything like he does so I still don’t know what the heck I’m talking about when it comes to beer (well maybe I don’t give myself enough credit, I have a little clue). 

Anyway so we heard about the Brick Store Pub’s Pancakes and Yard Sale event last year but Kevin was in a wedding that weekend, so we were thrilled when we found out we were free to go to their 2nd annual Pancakes and Yard Sale event this year!  


We met two of Kevin’s coworkers there around 7:30am and the line was already down the side of the building.   


Luckily one of his coworkers got in line at 7:00am and we got to get a table with him. 


Doors opened at 8:00am.  We got a great table up top on the balcony overlooking all of the commotion.  



We all ordered a round of Canadian Breakfast Stout, a beer that is aged in bourbon barrels that have previously had bourbon and then maple syrup aged in them.  All of us kind of chuckled about the fact that we were enjoying a beer at 8:00 in the morning.  



Then we had Kentucky Breakfast Stout and Blushing Monk.  They were for the most part beers that you can’t get very often so it was a treat.  



Plus the breakfast was delicious.  


AND they also have a yard sale of beer glasses and we got some really cool Terrapin barrel shaped glasses for $2.50 each.  



I hope we're able to go again next year!!
