Memphis Blues and Beer...

A recent trip to Memphis brought another opportunity to try out the local craft brew scene.  Each restaurant or bar we visited had at least one local on tap - a coincidence? Likely not, it's more of an  establishment criteria.  Tasty results are presented below.
Prost.

Locales Pub - Downtown. Left to right: Lazy Magnolia Pale Ale - A hop-o-rama beer that is nicely drinkable; good nose, somewhat fruity; but, can be overwhelming to un-initiated. Yazoo Sly Rye Porter - nice and smooth; standard porter;  Yazoo Pale Ale - smooth, easily drinkable, good session beer.



Rendezvous - Downtown - the classic and famous rib joint.  Ghost River Golden Ale - a nice compliment to ribs, chicken, slaw, and beans.  Nice golden color, slight maltiness, good session beer.
