One would think that by now I could face the dead of a Houston summer with a defiant exuberance.

Alas, I need encouragement. Lots of encouragement.

Fortunately, Buffalo Bayou Brewing Co. promises a little happy respite each year about this time. I always enjoy being part of an enthusiastic crowd reveling in our signature weather style.

I have yet to muster the strength to join the ugly-sweater competition, however. Rather, I enjoy the wild bounty of Buffbrew brews and the pleasant company.
