Goose Island IPA




When I am in the mood for a beer I choose Goose Island IPA, hands down its a beer that can go well with anything whether its a steak with potatoes, a roasted pork tenderloin with asparagus, or a nice deli sandwich and chips. It really is a jack of all trades when it comes to marrying its distinct flavor with a dish. Its 5.9% alcohol by volume, and unlike some breweries with an English India Pale Ale in their lineup you can get this beer year-round, none of that seasonal jazz, good beer should be available. This IPA is amazing it has an herby aroma, a smooth malty body, a brisk flavor with subtle coffee notes, and a hoppy flavor that you can taste and feel. If you haven't tried it you are missing out.

brewed by Goose Island Beer Co.

Comfort food: Uncle Maddio's Pizza Joint












Uncle Maddio's Pizza Joint

Is spectacular, great food, great service and pizza that looks and taste like real pizza from an authentic Pizzeria even though its a chain restaurant. Everything is fresh, from the daily made in-store pizza dough, to the selection of veggies cleaned and prepped every morning. Their pizza has 3 different crust options, 6 different sauces, and over 45 meat, veggie, and cheese toppings to choose from. They have gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan options which is always nice. You talk directly to your pizza maker to build the perfect pizza, or try one of the signature pies, salads, or sandwiches. Below is the menu. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and you will too. There are a few locations in the Charlotte area, but if you check the website (link below) you can find one of these great pizza joints in your neck of the woods. Enjoy!

Comfort food: WORLD OF BEER






I decided to try " WORLD OF BEER " and I am glad that I did, they have great service a warm eclectic atmosphere an a awesome menu, with over 500 plus beers from around the world, the food is delicious and it would rival some of Charlotte's snooty white-tablecloth establishments that claim a superior culinary experience while draining your wallet and serving you tasteless over thought cuisine. World of Beer is located in the Epicentre Uptown, its not just a waterhole for drinkers that serves"bar-food"it offers you a feeling of upscale dinning, a host of international spirits with a downtown hospitality. I enjoyed myself.
