Beer Name: Picnic Time
Style: Pale Ale
ABV: 5.5%
Color: Roughly the same color as medium-grade wicker.
Cheese Pairing: Brie, but that weird "rindless" brie that comes in a plastic tub. We've heard it described as "brie-merican cheese," which is accurate but also maybe a bit of a stretch linguistically.
Food Pairing: Salami sandwich.
Music Pairing (Jimbo's Choice): "Dee Knee Blues" by Hillstomp
Music Pairing (Jared's Choice): "Peaches" by The Presidents of the United States of America
Best Occasion to Drink: While claiming you're having a "picnic" as a flimsy justification to drink outside.
Brewers' Notes: Everybody loves picnics, right? And now that we're... reimagining how public spaces should be used, anything can be a picnic! Sitting on a grassy hillside? Picnic. Having a sandwich on the median of a four-lane road? Picnic. Drinking in a parking lot? Picnic. Leaning out the window to yell at people? Sure, why not - Picnic. Anyway, we wanted to make a beer for all your questionable picnic needs, so we gathered up a buncha locally-grown grains and some Michigan-grown chinook (the hops, not the fish. Or the dog. Or the helicopter) and we mashed 'em all up in this tasty lil' pale ale and now you get to have some!
