BEER - It's not just for breakfast

2016-12-26

Beer has long been a staple in many diets. The earliest reference to people drinking a fermented beverage made from grain dates back to 4000BC in ancient Egypt. Today we tend to limit the consumption of beer to after 12 o'clock, maybe that is due to most people not partaking of alcohol until after work. In many parts of the world it is traditional to include beer as part of breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's a nutritious mix of flavor, vitamins, hydration and calories. We're looking forward to retirement and I can imagine enjoying a cold stout while we wait for an early morning flight in the airport.

Porters and stouts brewed with rich flavors of chocolate or coffee are well suited to replace that cup of joe. I recall a Guinness I once had while waiting for a connecting flight. My internal clock was totally out of sync with local time and when I sipped that cold glass of goodness at 8AM I realized it satisfied my taste buds the way a hot cup of motionless coffee never could.
