A Quickie

I was browsing the back pages of Beer Haiku Daily this morning and came across this gem:

Seeking out wheat beers
That go well with my porch swing
As the weather warms

Wheat beer IS the perfect summer drink.  Too bad I didn't have this for yesterday's post about Sammy Adams' Coastal Wheat.   Too bad I don't have a porch swing, too.  Or a porch.  

I used to have a home-built swing for two that was suspended under this huge oak tree (50 feet tall, or so) at my place in Oklahoma.  The swing was made out of some old park bench-like thing... I inherited it when I bought the house.  I spent more than a few quiet summer evenings around sunset in that swing, drinking Labatts... the beer of choice at the time.   I loved watching my three dogs romp and stomp all over the place until it got totally dark... at which time they would come lay under the swing and keep us company until it was time to go indoors.   Good times.
