A couple of weekend ago I went to the Saucer two nights in a row. The first was my usual - planned usual as twice doesn’t make it a usual thing I suppose - Friday stop by after work with Mack. The next night Kay and I dropped Mack off for babysitting co-op, and stopped by the Saucer with Michael and Angie for a beer before we went on our respective date nights.
Both nights a lovely young lady named Laura was my waitress. She was fun and knew a lot about beer. My kind of girl!
The first night I had Sol (Beer 2 of 200). There is nothing like a good Mexican beer with lime in the middle of an Austin summer. At home I’ve been drinking Tecate which is one of my favorite. The Saucer oddly does not have it so I went with Sol. I remembered it as another good Mexican beer. Perhaps I was expecting too much because it was disappointingly bland. It’s a light beer like Corona but it lacked any bite like Corona or Tecate.
Saturday night I had Boddington’s Pub Ale (3 of 200). Another good beer I remember. Sadly I was disappointed by this one as well, but I had a second one just to make sure. The second one was better. Boddington’s is a very hoppy beer and I think I just had to get my palette used to it. Despite the over abundance of hops it goes down smooth. It is definitely in my top 34.
