Paycheck Friday

Who doesn't want a good cerveza on Friday after work? I know I sure do. And before I get judged for the fact that it's not 5 o'clock yet, I direct your responses [here.] Today my desk chair has been transformed into a beach chair, and my work space is a beach on the island of Hispañola. [The better half.] 


Right now I'm enjoying a Presidente, from the Dominican Republic. Technically it is imported by MillerCoors, but it is brewed by Cervecería Nacionál Dominicana. Learn something new every day. This beer is similar to what you'd imagine a 'mexican beer' to be even though it's not from Mexico. That is the easiest way to describe it. What I like about this beer is the way it finishes smooth and sweet. The first part of the taste is a lot like a Corona but it doesn't need a lime to be all-day-drinkable. If I had a cooler full of this, and a good view of the ocean, then I would be all set.


When I do these posts, I actually put in a little bit of research on the interwebs before I start writing. I always visit the brewer's website to learn about what I am drinking, who made it, etc. Well I definitely got a laugh when I came across the website for Presidente. [http://www.presidente.com.do] As you can see, the entire site is in Spanish. There are pictures of hot people in bathing suits, the beach, and a refrigerator/speaker-system full of Presidentes. The best part of the site is actually at the bottom

Anyways, since I am on my way to Nashville, TN in a couple hours, and since I got paid today, I feel that it is appropriate to reference a couple country music songs. You should have picked up on the first already, and the second is as follows., where it says "El consumo de alcohol perjudica la salud." Which translates to "Consumption of alcohol harms health." I guess I missed that memo...


All week long we're some real nobodies,
But we just punched out and its paycheck Friday,
Weekends here, good God almighty,
People lets get drunk and be somebody

Enjoy your weekend everybody! Be sure to check back tomorrow as I will be updating from the road in Nashville!
