celebrating oktoberfest

it's no secret that adam and i enjoy old chicago...and the beverages they serve. the end of september/early october, they were having the oktoberfest mini tour. we thought we'd try and finish it with the few days that were left when we started. we made a few trips, days apart, to drink the eight beers required to complete it.  

we succeeded! we ate while we were there too. we hit during happy hour so we get cheap drinks and cheap appetizers that we make a meal. little boy is following in his daddy's footsteps. loves his {root}beer and pepperoni rolls.

and marinara sauce...straight up.

i'm pretty sure this little lady will enjoy it just as much as her mommy, daddy and brother. i mean, look at that face, who wouldn't be happy around {root}beer and pizza?!?

one very exciting side note: the same evening i completed the mini tour, was the same day that i drank my 110th beer from old chicago, making me a world beer tour champion. i got my free sweatshirt and i get my name on a plaque on the 'wall of foam'. i'm  pretty excited. now my new goal in life is to complete my second tour in less than two and a half years. i know people...i aim high.
