I am a product of my parents.
I love beer and wine.
For as long as I can remember my parents have gone on wine trips. I would be dropped off at my grandparents and a week later I was greeted with fancy cheese sticks, chocolates and sparking grape juice.
Now that I am 21 I am now allowed to travel along to the lands of wine.
Now let's get this straight. I am not a 21 year old who dances on bars and takes shots from strangers belly buttons. I am a little bit classier.
I savor the flavors and appreciate the quality. My seasonal favorite you may have guessed is pumpkin.
Out of the beers above I would have to say Schlafly is my number one side kick for the cold crisp weather which accompanies Missouri Fall season. It is a pumpkin pie in a glass.
I am not a hoppy girl but much of any other beer I can sip a glass or two.
I turned 21 in August so I haven't had the opportunity to go to many wineries but I do recommend going to a little town named Weston. In Weston Missouri you will find the best of both worlds: O'Malley's Brewery and Pirtle Winery.
O'Malley's is an underground bar. It smells of musk, smoke and alcohol but throw in a kickin' Irish band and the atmosphere is superior.
Pirtle Winery is in what looks like an old school house and almost always quiet (except for Apple Fest weekend). You try a few wines. Pick a bottle, order a basket and go outside in their quaint garden and have a romantic picnic.
I highly recommend the cherry chocolate wine. Trust the master, you will not regret it.
And those so far are my recommendations.
