Peach Barn, Alto & Von Jacob

10/22/2023

After a brief stop to visit with my nephew Andrew and his son Ethan in Alto Pass yesterday we headed to the Peach Barn.  Mike and Debbie really like the place and there was a band starting at 1.  I got a Sam Adams Octoberfest while the girls split a carafe of red sangria while Mike got a Miller Lite.  We also ordered a sausage board and an artisan platter.  Both platters had grapes, bread, humas and crackers  The sausage board had four different wild game sausages cut in 4-5 thin slices.  There was also potato cut in small pieces. The artisan platter had cheese and olives stuffed with garlic clove.  Both had some condiments.
Overall the food was decent but probably not worth the cost.  Biggest surprise is that I tried the olive and actually enjoyed it, I've never been a fan of olives.
Best part about the stop was the band, Classics Quartet.  They're a new group and played a variety of music from the 60s and 70s.  Fun time.
Next stop was Alto Vineyards just up the road.  When we went in there was a line that took us about 10 minutes to order.  Me and Lisa got a red slushy, Mike got an Ultra and Debbie got red sangria.  The slushy was good but by the time I got to the bottom of it the sweetness had gotten to me.  We sat in a pavillion away from the band so we couldn't hear them very good.  The band was Radiodaze and they played classic rock.  It didn't appear that they played all the music, some was "piped in" to help create their sound. 
The third stop was Von Jacob, again just down the road.  Tim Crosby was playing there and he does a lot of original songs.  He did a good job but the crowd wasn't very responsive.  I'd gotten an Octoberfest from Von Jacob and while it was okay it wasn't cold enough and got warm outside.
The weather was so nice except the wind but sitting outside was great.
We took to the backroads for a short ride and finished off the night at Brews Brothers.  All that and we still got home at a decent hour.
