Note-able #3 Drinking the summer away...

Here's a quick list of what we've been drinking, where we've been drinking and what we think about what we've been drinking:

1. Cerveza Pacifico Clara:  No need for lime, a spicier, far tastier version of Corona.  Procured at The Riverhead Project, 300 East Main Street, Riverhead.  Agnes, Jarry and Steve are HUGE fans of Pacifico.

2. Angry Orchard Cider:  Well balanced American style (leaning toward sweet) draft cider.  Steve downed about 6 pints (possibly more, certainly not less) with Agnes, Ralph and Nathan and the Bingo Crew at Shagunda's, 73 CJF Boulevard, Johnson City, NY.  We are BIG fans of AngryO, but bigger fans of Upstate NY's pricing schedule for adult beverages.

3. Thornbury Cider:  Crisp English style cider.  Not bad, but fandom TBD.  If the hipster bartender at The Ship, 23 Augusta Street, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada could have been bothered to, um, tend the bar he was behind, I might be able to tell you whether I was a true fan or not.  A lazy hipster?  Well I never!

4. Allagash White:  Belgian white from the "wilds" of Maine.  OK...I'm thinking that being just outside of Portland, Maine, might not qualify as the "wilds."  At any rate, Steve and Agnes are HUGE fans of Allagash White, perfect summer beer with hints of coriander and citrus.  We had a few TOO many with our friends in from The 'Burgh at The Smith, 55 3rd Avenue, New York City.

5. Magner's Cider:  Our go to summer beverage, perfect over ice and any time of day or night, even breakfast.  We had a few at Nevada Smith's with the 'Burgh crew, 125 East 11th Street, New York City while watching the Czechs beat Poland in the EuroCup, 1-0.  The Poles broke my heart baby sending several shots that whistled JUST wide.  Ja ci dam!

6. Sabai Sabai:  Thai welcome cocktail: Mehkong whiskey, simple syrup, lemon juice, Thai basil and splash of club soda (which I forgot!  Idiot!  gosh.)  Consumed in The Kramer Dining Room, Ostrander Abbey, Riverhead, NY with Maggie and Kelly, newly arrived from Hamilton, by way of Philadelphia on their way to NYC.  One pitcher, it ain't enough when you're a HUGE fan.  Know what I'm sayin'?
