Happy Hour: Snoweizen Wheat Ale
I'm all about eating and drinking locally, and one of my favorite treats of heading up to my vacation house is Snowshoe Brewery's Snoweizen beer. In my mind, it's the best hefeweizen/wheat style beer around. Smooth and creamy with a fruity aroma, Snoweizen has a golden color and thick white foam.
Happy Hour: Buffalo Bill's Pumpkin Ale

"Ancient brewers through trial and error learned that the natural enzymes in saliva would convert the starch in corn into sugar, so it would ferment," Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione told the New York Times.
I'm Asking: What Inexpensive Splurges Make You Happy?
Living on a budget can make you feel deprived if you're not making room for little splurges here and there.
