~ The team took a break from the daily grind with friends, family, good food and great drinks! ~ Having a culinary genius for a sister comes in especially handy on Thanksgiving - pears poached in Prana Chai and dipped in a Four Roses Bourbon caramel sauce accompanied a Chemex for a lighter take on dessert. - Sadie I had a lot of alcohol alternatives over the holiday break. You'd think it would be the opposite. One of our local favs is Ruby Jean's, so the fam went and loaded up on fresh juices during our Small Business Saturday outing. - Jason Non-caffeinated Thanksgiving libations included brews from Odell and Fort Collins Brewery, Maker's Mark and Bulleit whiskey and a lovely bottle of Charles Smith Boom Boom Syrah. - Sadie I worked through a bag of Messenger's Ethiopia Aricha Natural that was quite tasty for Thanksgiving break, but also received a surprise gift from Victor of Cask Coffee in Indianapolis. Had a few brews of their new barrel-aged coffee + spirit line. - Jason Spending the day in Boulder always means a trip to Piece, Love and Chocolate - drinking chocolate and a West Flanders Black Immaculate IPA Caramel were the perfect afternoon treat. - Sadie My Thanksgiving break was filled a mix of winter-friendly beers. We didn't have snow (thank goodness), but plenty of endless cold rain. I sipped on Abita Christmas Ale, Bell's Winter White, and Santa Fe's Java Stout with a few holiday naps in between. - Jason Community hour at Next Door in Boulder included brews from Bristol Brewing, New Belgium & Odell - the perfect way to warm up after a brisk afternoon at Settler's Park. - Sadie As usual KC coffee shop runs were part of the work week. Last week was a combo of impromptu meetings, Thanksgiving prep errands, and work breaks out of the home office at Second Best, Homer's Coffee, and BrewGallery. - Jason Boxcar Coffee brews and Christmas spirit accompanied post-Thanksgiving workflow at Galvanize Fort Collins. - Sadie What a great weekend topped off with a nightcap of prep work and a pour of Pierde Almas Mezcal. - Jason ~ Join the Conversation ~
