It already feels like spring has come and gone in my part of the US, with the sweltering dry heat of summer already rearing its horrible head. Today we drink from the cup of heresy with a pairing that serves as an epitaph for spring and a toast to the memory of summers past (more on that later) with Boleskine House‘s Miserabilist Blues and Knee Deep Brewing Co.‘s Tahoe Deep.
