I presented each activity via a page from his adventure book right before it was time to move on. (Cheestastic? Yes... but hopefully fun as well.) As you can tell, when he woke up, I made him breakfast. (He chose boiled eggs & fruit.) Then he watched part of the Tour de France before we headed to Barnes and Noble to pick him out some birthday books.
The big part of the day was going to No Label Brewing Co. out in Katy. We've been meaning to make it out there for months now, but have never found the time to do so. It's such a small operation and they've only been around for less than a year, but boy do they make some yummy beer.
It's a family owned operation. See that guy up there under the flags? That's Brian Royo, part owner, giving us the low down.
I think there is some weird law that doesn't allow breweries to advertise where they distribute their product, so I caught this super secret picture from behind the scenes. The white board shows what bars they are in and which brew is at which bar.
Oh, did I mention that the brewery is located in an old grain mill? Pretty crazy digs. Also crazy... the hundreds of people that show up on Saturdays to sit out in the heat and drink beer for a couple of hours. They are kid and dog friendly, and believe me, there were plenty of both.
Doesn't 27 look good on Jason?
After the brewery tour, we quickly stopped by Katy Mills mall before meeting up with Sal & Nicole for drinks at Taps.
We went to dinner at Zelko Bistro in the Heights and it was very good. After that, we were pooped so we just headed home and went to sleep.
So, there you have it... Jason's 27th birthday adventure. :)
