Day 8: January 8, 2015
Diary entry:
Today was a long day at work, over 12 hours. All of this after a late night moderating #FoodTravelChat on Twitter. This chat occurs every Wednesday night at 8PM Eastern time. Unfortunately, that’s 2AM for me in the Netherlands. However, this is one of my favorite Twitter chats of the week! I try not to ever miss it!
The Beer:
Name: Den Herberg Amber
Style: Belgian Pale Ale
Producer: Den Herberg
Alcohol content: 5.5%
Bottle size: 0.33l
Purchased from: De Hopduvel in Ghent, Belgium
A nice, bitter, amber-colored pale ale. Very drinkable.
