so i seriously didn’t realize that beer floats were such a foreign concept! i mean, sure i’d only had one ever before, but when i was served that one at The Green Frog Acoustic Tavern in Bellingham, WA it just seemed so natural (and GOOD! :) they used some kind of chocolate stout there, and what i had on hand that (re)inspired the idea was Real Ale Coffee Porter.
my sweetie was doubtful, as i expected, but it had something to do with the difference between a beer on tap and beer from a bottle.... i was not to be swayed.
my good friend, Alyse Black, came over for rehearsal and i announced it would be our reward for getting through the songs :)
little bowls, a big scoop of vanilla icecream (i let it soften up on the counter for a bit) and some coffee porter poured on top. eat with a spoon, live well and be happy.
(true, it didn’t foam up all that much, but my goodness it was enough!)
will wasn’t sold on it (though he did try a bite), but alyse and i both had seconds :)
beer floats!
pass it on! :)
