Terrific daughter Elisabeth and son-in-law-to-be George heard us when we said how much we liked the Blonde Ale from Hamilton Brewery Good Nature.
Our Christmas gifts included a growler of that draft ale, cold from their fridge and short trip in their car.
Does not that pour look lovely?
Karen, George and myself shared a truly special holiday sample.
