About 4 months ago when the sun was shining and I was still wearing short sleeve shirts with regularity, Living Social posted a deal for Shooting and Drinking. You had me at Shooting. and Drinking. Fast forward to Saturday 1/14/12 and the day had finally arrived.
We met in RiverNorth and hopped on the bus to Michigan. We went shooting first (much safer option) We each shot a 9mm handgun, an AK47 and a Tommy Gun. The shooting portion of the trip definitely kicked a lot of ass. Charlotte was our winner being the most accurate with the 9mm handgun. Kate liked the AK47 a bit much, which I think freaked all of us out.
After the shooting was all wrapped up on to the Round Barn Winery Distillery and Brewery. Included in the price of the trip was a pint glass or stemless wine glass as well as 8 tokens good for alcohol samples! I used all of my samples on the beer which was ok (some much better than others but the things we got to try are below and the ones I thought were better have been bolded)
Barodinger
Kolsch
Bob’s Your Uncle
Amber Ale
Harvest Ale
Brown Rye
Cocoa Stout
Oak-Aged IPA
Even though I was out of tokens I had to try their bourbon. Glad I did, I think it ended up being the best thing that I tried on the trip.
I really have to give Living Social some credit for this event. GREAT IDEA!
