Back in our hometowns, friends consistently recommended Charles Vergos' Rendezvous as the must-visit Memphis barbecue joint. But once we got here, locals kept steering us toward Central BBQ. Trusting our new pals, we paid a visit to Central late yesterday afternoon. Our order? Half a rack of ribs (half wet, half dry, on the cashier's recommendation), a pulled pork sandwich, a heavenly order of chicken nachos, mac 'n' cheese and slaw on the side, with a pair of Coors Banquet Beers for support. This was the best decision we made in Memphis. We'll see you next time, Rendezvous.

By themselves, they're just small moments in and around beer. Together, they're the culture we love.
