Had a great time taking in the view, food, and brews on this “field trip” to Cincinnati, Ohio. Of course Cincinnati chili is a must; with great traditional options in Skyline and Gold Star. When the rooftop is open, be sure to check out the great rooftop bar on Rhinegeist brewery, offering panoramic views of the city and surrounding murals (and if you missed the chili elsewhere, grab some by OTR). Braxton Cincinnati is a great stop to grab a beer and lift one to life, while Brewdog Cincinnati proved itself to be a relaxing place to grab a bite to eat and sample some of their brews on draft.

This apple, bacon, and cheddar pizza is a great seasonal meal for Autumn. While apple pizza might sound unusual, it’s actually quite good; the sweetness from the in season apple slices blends well with the salty richness of the bacon and the melted cheddar holds it all together; Served with a delightfully dark stout to complement the light char on the pizzas bottom.

If you have any unripe green tomatoes in the garden and the weather is starting to get chilly in your area, one way to put them to good use is to make a batch of green tomato relish to can (or freeze) for later use. It’s a great way to enjoy the last of the garden tomatoes, and a great chance to cook with beer!
