Day 67: March 8, 2015
Diary entry:
Last day of the Bat Mitzvah festivities. Today’s events involved Brunch / leftovers at my sister’s place, followed by my niece’s basketball game. So many leftovers! I think she may have gone a little overboard on some of the food. But it was delicious, even as leftovers! Also a few beers left over as well…
A fun basketball game. Unfortunately, her team lost, but she did score a basket (and almost fouled out…but that’s a different story.)
Drove with my brother to his place up in Inwood, at the northernmost tip of Manhattan to spend the night before my flight back to the Netherlands on Monday.
The Beer:
Name: Traditional Lager
Style: American Amber / Red Lager
Producer: Yuengling Brewery
Alcohol content: 4.4%
Bottle size: 12 oz Bottle
Purchased from: My niece’s Bat Mitzvah
No way was I going to spend a weekend in PA without my first-ever check-in to Yuengling! Especially when it was being served at my niece’s Bat Mitzvah.
Commercial Description: An iconic American Lager famous for its rich amber color and medium bodied flavor with roasted caramel malt for a subtle sweetness and a combination of cluster and cascade hops, this true original delivers a well balanced taste with very distinct character.
