One of the reasons why I love Fall so much is because of all the tasty seasonal beer selections.
Pumpkin beer specifically, if you must know.
So I was pumped when I was given a chance to participate in the Ultimate Beer Lover’s Oktoberfest Blog Tour, to celebrate John Schlimm’s new cookbook, The Ultimate Beer Lover’s Happy Hour. As a beer lover myself, along with my husband, we love trying out new brews and pairing them with our eats – so I thought it would be fun to share on the blog.
PLUS the holidays are right around the corner, and you probably have a beer lover on your list -> this would be a pretty awesome gift to give!
