It's No Coincidence That Beer Rhymes With Cheer

Thursday, January 16, 2014

A lot of girls don't like beer, they think it's nasty and disgusting and tastes like bitter dry grass or watered down "whatever beer is supposed to taste like". However, I must confess, I am a girl who loves beers!!! I love drinking beers, sipping beers, trying beers, chugging beers, beers are just delicious to me. I personally love craft beers and going to local breweries. 

If you don't like beers but enjoy wine there is still a beer out there for you. Contrary to popular belief there are tons of fruity beers, coffee beers, and even chai beers. There is more to the beer world than PBR and Budlight (oh and you can't forget Coors Light). While these beers are affordable and come in large quantities they are not the BEST BEER EVER. 


My all time favorite beer is by Red Brick Brewing Company it's called "The Vanilla Gorilla" and it is absolutely delicious. It's a porter which means that it is a darker (colored) beer, and has a hoppy taste to it.  It also goes down easy and to me there is no sour or bitter taste to it. 

If you don't like beer it's okay it's not for everyone but let me tell you.....beer is amazing! It's better than wine, because you don't need a fancy glass to put it in to drink it. (I always feel classless when I drink wine out of a regular cup!). What's great about beers is there is a beer to drink with almost every meal (minus breakfast). 

There are tons of breweries out there, but in Atlanta there are tons of breweries that are worth checking out! My personal favorite brewery in Atlanta would have to be Red Brick Brewing OR Monday night! 

Do you like beers? Or do you prefer wine??

That's Fresh Friday #1

It's Friday which means its time for #thatsfreshfridaylinkup....and the weekend!!! I  know Christmas was a while back but I thought I would share with everyone what was under my Christmas tree this year!
This Christmas I was extremely blessed and extremely thankful for all the goodies that I found under my Christmas tree! It was a very merry Kate Spade Christmas this year!
This is the newest addition to my purse collection I am obsessed with the shape and the color! Aren't you?


I actually knew these bangles would be under the Christmas tree but I am LOVING the crazy town bangle as of late...especially because New Years Eve was just a couple days ago ;) 
(because you know you want to see it again....my purse is included!) 
If you didn't know you...should know I LOVE phone cases. I personally believe you can never have enough. A while back I did a post on the Kate Spade cat case and I was so happy and surprised to see it sitting under my tree along with a fun owl friend!! For the upcoming semester I got this fun pencil pouch which of course matches one of my phone cases. And there was a dash of Lilly sitting under the tree, I am loving the bow earrings and alligator USB key chain. They are both so perfect.


The last couple things under my tree were clothes. I love the Blackhawks (ice hockey team) so it was a fun surprise to see that I had a new something to wear while going to games. The vest to the top left is Vineyard Vines and it is so comfortable and for a vest surprisingly warm! The other Vineyard Vines shirts are super baggy and comfortable (perfect for school or lazy weekends!). And the middle striped shirt is a fun Jcrew turtle neck that I wear with the vest or by itself. It's super light weight but looks great as a layering shirt! 

What did you get under your Christmas Tree??


That's a wrap for my very first  #Thatsfreshfridaylinkup be back for another next week! 

Keep Calm and Carry On
