Beer

[danalwyn]

Today I bought beer for myself for the first time in my life. This also means that today is the first time I've tasted beer. My inability to consume alcohol means that this is not something I commonly engage in. After the first taste (wine-style, take a sip, swirl it around in the mouth, spit it out, wash it out), I'm not entirely sure what all the fuss is about, but I was never very good with wine either, so maybe I'm just bad with alcoholic beverages.

I have a recipe for chocolate whiskey and beer cupakes. The Guiness gets cooked out, but it does have Bailey's in the frosting. I've never actually made them, (The "gourmentness" of them is still intimidating me) but the recipe says you can swap the Bailey's for milk. I can pass it along if you'd like.

Not up to baking yet (I generally don't bake because I don't like following recipes), but if it's convenient, sure, pass it along (I can always use more recipes).
