So does not forgetting a certain piece of clothing. “I have a travel list of things I bring every single time,” Peluso, a native of Syracuse, New York, who is now living in Los Angeles. “Always bring a bathing suit. It doesn’t matter if it’s winter in Minnesota. There’s a pool somewhere. So, you just have to pack your tea and your bathing suit, and that’s all you need … a nice chamomile.” Tea is the frugal Peluso’s beverage of choice while going from town to town and staying in different hotels every night. It’s part her own austerity program, which Peluso employs, in part, to entertain herself while on tour. “You find ways to like [touring],” said Peluso. “You find ways to make it home. I find ways to keep it economic. I bring tea. Hot water … free. I love budgeting. I bring my own honey, I’ve got my own tea. I ask people for hot water … boom! I saved myself $5. If I drink tea every day, that’s $25 a week. That’s a couple thousand dollars a year. I can’t do math, but that’s like a million dollars a year I’m getting. Financial freedom …

Books As you might expect, there are hundreds of beer books out there. There are three that I keep returning to over and over. Cheese & Beer, by Janet Fletcher (106 pp., $24.99, Andrews Michael

Cheese & BeerCheese – Amazon.com Publishing) has resulted in many a fine sampling at my house. Fletcher’s background is more in the cheese area; she has written a weekly cheese column for the San Francisco Chronicle and is the recipient of three James Beard Awards for her journalism. However, she does a fine job in her book of describing the characters of various beer styles and how they fit with specific cheeses. Did you know that triple-cream cheeses go best with barleywine? Or that gouda and manchego are a good match with brown ales? This isn’t a book for people who eat Wisconsin cheddar with Busch Light; most of the cheeses, while made in the U.S., lean more toward European styles.
