I want to start out by saying that I feel like crap. With all my healthy eating and exercise my allergies have brought on a sinus infection that is doing a number on me and whats worse is I just restocked and have a good group of beers to try. I was over at
Brewer's Outlet in Pottsville yesterday and picked up some hard ciders to sample along with a variety pack from Lancaster Brewing Company. This is an example of a gluten free beer that I never realized was gluten free until I read the label. I was up at
Dorko's on Monday for team trivia after a short sabbatical and we dominated having the lead for the entire game which is also good because I have now finished off every beer that they carry. Because we won they will be bringing in some Lord Chesterfield from Yuengling which I haven't reviewed yet and haven't had in a while. Last night because I wasn't feeling at my peak I decided to go with a beer with a lighter flavor and a lower ABV in the hopes that my sickness would not get any worse. I also hadn't had a Woodchuck since my late college years and the period shortly after when I was on my hard cider kick. So last night I had a
Woodchuck Hard Cider Crisp. The temperature was good at 42.3 degrees and it had a small head at 1" with a fizzy off white appearance. The head dissipated quickly and it had a soft carbonation. The clarity was sparkling with a straw color and an apple aroma and taste. The flavor was light with a short finish length and a dry mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the back and the body lacing was fair. Overall I rated it a B+ it had a good easy to drink flavor that was crisp and didn't have a huge alcohol content so its good when your already not feeling up to par. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.
With being sick I don't have a recipe for the day so I do apologize hopefully tomorrow when I'm off I will be feeling better and I can experiment with a new dish.
As for my fitness tip for the day is that yoga is a great way to help you to feel great and energize you in the morning I have been doing it off and on for a year or more now and every time I stop for a while my mood changes and when I go back to I feel better. I recommend starting off easy. I do just a couple of poses a day tree, warrior, cobra, downward dog and a couple of other stretches. Check out
youtube.com for some great simple workouts.

Crisp and refreshing because they're made from apples, never woodchucks.
