I love Beer Week, don't get me wrong. The entire city is alive and buzzing about sweet hops and grains, stouts. ales, and imports. It is this time of year that other things often fermented are overlooked and under appreciated. Many of these forgotten fruits are wonderful in their purest sense, and need not be made into alcohol in order to bring out their amazingness.Take you, kyoho grape. You need nothing. You ask for nothing.
You are perfect just as you are. That's probably why in Japan, Korea, and China, you are simply peeled and served as a desert. It's true, you are my favorite sorbetto of the evening. One bite of you and it's love. Sweet, juicy love.
So while everyone else is out tonight drinking their fancy brews and trying to keep up with the latest in beer jargon, I'm gonna sit back and enjoy a refreshing kyoho grape frappe. This is where I want to be, right here at Capo20th.
(Until midnight at least. Then it's ON, Beer Week... )

SOMEbody's trying to convince themselves that they wouldn't rather be drinking beer. Valiant effort, my dear ;)
