I passed the tasting room on the way back from Captiva. I forgot my wallet, so I had “free” parking at the beach, but I had no money for a beer. Luckily, I still had one of the Tiki Sour series at home!
Last we'll see of it for awhile, I think.^^^
There's that big glass of orange juice again!

Cigar City Jai-lai IPA at Grimaldi’s.
This is the Ft. Myers Grimaldi’s. Same outfit. They used to claim that they used water from Brooklyn to make the dough daily. . I do know the calzone is delicious! We arrived at 5:30 and were sat immediately, but the line was long as we left. Very popular spot here.Is that the famed Grimaldi's Pizza of Brooklyn?
Ya know, whenever I go to a spot, I hope they have something on tap I have never tried. If not, I feel as though I’m settling for Jai-lai, but I’m always happily surprised when my nose gets to the top of the pint glass and I take the first sip! The other draft IPA at Grimaldi’s is Fort Myers Brewing High 5, and I would say the same about it.You can never go wrong with the jai alai.
One of my favorite beers, J.W. Dundee's Honey Brown, bad been discontinued several years ago. Just discovered that Dundee's parent company, Genesee, has resurrected and rebranded it as Genesee Honey Brown. It was a great pairing with Beef Vindaloo.
Dundee's Honey Brown was extremely popular from the mid 90's to mid aught's in the Northeast US. Not sure how far it was distributed.I'll have to keep an eye out for it. I really like Genesee's Cream Ale; the honey brown looks interesting.
