There were about 20 or so vendors pouring their Belgian Tripels, their White Ales, and their various other Belgian brews. It was MAGICAL. I mean, a beer festival is wonderful in and of itself, but Belgians are my favorite beers on earth. We dropped the N-man off at the neighbors and spent a good 4 hours enjoying the beer, sausage, and Belgian Waffles.
My favorite of the day was Dick's Belgian Tripel. It's well-rounded...not too much spice, sweet, or bitter...just the right combination of all three. A few other winners came from the Issaquah Brewhouse, which is apparently owned by Rogue. Their White Frog Ale and the Menage A Frog Ale are both very good.
Man, I am wiped out tonight. I thought yesterday I'd be exhausted from all of the walking around I did but that was nothing compared to the effects of drinking all afternoon. No plans for tomorrow...with Noah's feeding schedule it will probably be difficult to venture far, but a day of chillin' around the house sounds pretty good to me.
Besides, why go out when there's a dude this cute hanging around?
