Yesterday I imbibed a couple of Founders All Day IPA's roasting a pork shoulder (without bone).
I got up early morning, 4:00am and started the grill with oak (limbs that fell last year in the yard). I set an alarm that had me checking every 45min. By 8:00am I took the roast off the fire and let it rest on the cutting block. 9:00 breakfast was delicious. Fall apart pork (Rosemary and salt spices only) was a treat all day. Heck my wife even rose early to the smells and had an "early breakfast."
Back to drink - the Founders Beer held taste during the fatigue I felt being summoned by the alarm. The taste of hops and in general beer taste was not dimmed at all drinking the All Day IPA. It did not get to be "too much, or too less." It even stayed refreshing and quenching when pulled from the frig were I stored partial glasses when I napped or walked away from the grilling. These characteristics make it a staple IPA in my beer frig.
It did get me contemplating having smaller cans of beer for just these kind of moments. Hmmmm.
