With much of my state still underwater, and as post storm hardships begin in earnest, i figured i would leave the Pacific Northwest and come back to Texas this week, and Houston in particular. As the city and the surrounding areas start to cope and rebuild, maybe imbibe one of the community's finer wares if they're accessible to you. A great one to start with is the delicious Raspberry Rotundone Saison from
Buffalo Bayou Brewing. The beer pours a beautiful reddish hue with a foamy off-white head and smells of fruit, spice, a hint of earthiness, and lots and lots of raspberries (naturally). The raspberries are at the forefront of the brew's flavor, meshing with a slight tartness and notes of spice. As the beer warms, those spicy notes get stronger, leaving the whole affair with a much dryer finish than expected. If you can, drink one of these 9% ABV wonders today, and then maybe donate some money to relief efforts.
