I had my first beer today. Not my first taste of beer. I finished a full 12 oz. bottle of beer today.

I'm 33. I never developed a taste for beer. Ironically, though, I like Beer Cheese Soup. That's why I had my first full beer. I've made the soup before with Sam Adams Brown Ale (as mentioned in that entry). I couldn't find any for today (I'm making the soup for tonight's Lenten Soup Supper at church), so I got a six-pack of Michelob's Amber Bock.

Just like with the Brown Ale, I tasted some before using it in the soup. Just like the Brown Ale, I really liked the beer. Unlike the Brown Ale, though, I finished the bottle I opened.

It'll definitely be good in the soup...yummy!
