CRAVE: Seasonal Eating - The Heavy and Light of It
By Laurie Gilchrist
[Excerpt] "It’s hard to believe that another summer is upon us already. We’ve said goodbye to ‘season’ once again, and though we all welcome the dwindling crowds and traffic, most of us dread the rising mercury. But as the temperatures outside begin to soar and the AC starts working at max capacity, it’s a great opportunity to unplug the oven and think about eating a little lighter... literally. This will not only cause our bodies to feel cooler, but also help us lose those extra winter pounds that are holding us back from uncovering at the beach."

SUMMER BEERS:
By Sir Lucky Day
[Excerpt] PALM: AMBER ALE (5.4% abv) "This Belgian beauty pours a caramel, amber hue with an effervescent head that bubbles away to a thin lace. The subtle nose merely whispers of sweet bread and citrus. This Amber has a doughy sweetness up front that is balanced nicely with a mild hoppy bitterness in the middle. The finish is crisp and dry with the faintest residual hint of corn. The Palm Amber Ale is incredibly pleasant and a perfect compliment to any scorching Summer day."
