Northeastern: Cougar Hunting

Sufficient food and beverage is an extremely important part of any camping trip. When camping in Maine during late autumn, adequate fuel for the body is even more of a necessity. The following is a listing of what we consumed, and how it was prepared.




1. Andre - Strawbery
The proper way to consume Andre is directly from the bottle. There is never a need for a champagne flute or a cup of any kind. In a campsite setting it is often encouraged to stand around a fire and pass the bottle. Bubbly. Ice Cold. Sweet. Pop-Like.

2. Shipyard Brews
Shipyard beer is widely available in Massachusetts and Maine. To be perfectly honest, there is nothing special about this local brewery. We were able to try the IPA, Export Ale, and Brown Ale. Solid yet unimpressive.

3. Local Hard Cider
The bottle on the far right is from a local cider mill. There is nothing better than a fresh, dry, hard, apple cider. Just like the Andre, this is best consumed by passing the bottle around a campfire.

4. Dinner
A staple of camping for generations is the patented garlic-grilled-cheese. This campsite delicacy is prepared over an open propane stove on a cast-iron skillet. Only the finest ingredients are used: White Land O Lakes American Cheese, White Bread, Non-Butter Spread, Garlic-Salt. You, our humble reader, are almost in a position to create your own garlic-grilled cheese sandwich. However, knowing the ingredients alone will not enable you to craft a master sandwich the we East Georgians have done for centuries. Bon appetit!
