Chicken, Spinach Artichoke Pinwheels - Wheat Ale

This week has been a tough one for me not cooking and obviously not posting.  I have been sick yet again.  This was a really easy recipe I made with left over spinach artichoke dip from my previous post.

A new favorite summer time beer of mine is Rahr & Sons Summertime Wheat Ale.  This also has a sweet spice in the background of cloves, which I love!  This is also a local beer being brewed in Fort Worth which we love to support.  We plan to tour that brewery when its not so hot anymore so if you want to join us, let us know.  It does have a pretty strong wheat and grain flavor to it, but then again its called a Wheal Ale.  The spice and the sweet citrus background adds a great contrast.  It’s a little expensive in liquor stores, so look for it on sale.
