My (grade school!) friend MARY invited us to a beer tasting
held where she lives at Blue Bell Country Club. These were not
your “normal” beers, actually they were quite abnormal
& very tasty if not more than that……….
All you beer geeks – look what we had the opportunity to drink,
and weep b/c you weren’t there with us!!
It was truly a special tasting!
