My annual beer tasting is coming up at the end of January. We have it in Cut Off, Louisiana on the bayouside of Bayou Lafourche before the Krewe of Versailles Parade. I pride myself in getting unusual beers each year. Traditionally, we end the tasting by drinking the Chimay Grand Reserve. It’s a beautiful thing.
