Who doesn't love a good barbecue? Sitting outside with the warmth of the sunshine, tasting the char from the grill, and the chatter of friends gathered near. We are quickly approaching the summer solstice. As the mercury rises, we can keep our internal temperatures down. In lieu of my weekly Sunday Sips, here is a whole list of ideas to stay cool while munching on all kinds of summer mealtime favorites. (Note: the Examples below are respectively placed to the Beer Pairings listed above. E.g. Magic Hat Elder Betty is a specific Hefeweizen, and Lindemans Framboise is a specific Fruit Lambic.)
