A Blonde, two Redheads, and a Brunette

For Christmas,  the Beer Model's parents were in town. While watching football, I got her dad a flight of SheppyBrew beers. 

While getting the beers, the beers I had on tap reminded me of the post I made a long time ago ... A Brunette, a Read Head, and a Blonde. 

I told him his flight was One Blonde. Two Read Heads. One Brunette.

Mr. Awesome Merican Lager was the blonde. Wien Zerschlagen and Dudocs Red IPA were the Reds. X-Mas Ale 2022 was the Brunette.

The lighting on this photo looks more like a couple of blondes and a couple of reds, but I'm sticking with my original thought.

The Father-in-Law preferred the Blonde. The Mother-in-Law preferred the Brunette. They both really liked the Wien Zerschlagen, and didn't seem to mind the IPA quite as much as I figured they would.

For dinner, I Reverse Seared a Ribeye Roast. 

It took longer than I expected, but it turned out awesome. It was a little bigger than we usually get. Still, I'm not sure why it took as long as it did.

Actually, the timing turned out perfect because another guest arrived a little later than we were expecting him to come.

Anyway, the meat was great. It was a little more than rare in the center and the edges were probably more like medium, but we had enough of a range of preferences that it was exactly perfect for everyone.

It was amazingly tender and juicy. The smoke flavor was just perfect too.

Yummy!

It's hard to believe that 2022 is about over.

Happy New Year Everyone.
