📚 Indoor Winter Hobbies

So I’m super late to the party here but I have been absolutely LOVING this beer lately. It’s a staple of the North Brewing roster, and for a good reason – it’s crispy, fresh and low on the bitterness. It’s become my go-to Cooking Beer these days (like to drink while cooking, though I suppose you could cook WITH it if you wanted to).  Which is good because we’ve been spending a lot of time in the kitchen this winter…it is soup season, after all.
