The calendar did not reflect it, but the weather didn't notice on a recent trip to The Beachcomber on the Malibu Pier. It looked and felt like summer to me, and I enjoyed a couple of summery beverages during a long lunch with the mom-in-law. Some may quip that lunch with a mother-in-law is always long, but she and I always get along just fine.
Kona Brewing Company's Longboard Island Lager got things off to a great start. It's really yellow, with a nice head, white and fluffy. The taste is very clean and the hops are fresh with a touch of malt and a citrus edge on the palate.
Service was quite slow, so another beverage seemed appropriate. I opted for an Edna Valley white wine I know and love, the Tangent Sauvignon Blanc. Grassy minerals and a nose full of citrus notes lead to a palate loaded with lemon zest and wet rocks. It pairs extremely well with sunshine and Mahi Mahi.
