Sending beer through the internet tubes
What we have today is a nice Belgian blond (no "e"). It sticks pretty close to the style guides but minor quibbles that the head doesn't linger and it's a bit thin. However! Let's focus on the good parts! I'm beginning to like the estery Belgian yeast flavors in beer now that I can do... Continue Reading →
Oh man...Wise Man Brewing out of Winston Salem, NC. They are going to be big (-ger than they are right now). We've made the trip out to see them twice and haven't been disappointed in a brew from there yet. Even bought a 4 pack of a DIPL and I never do that. I'm enjoy... Continue Reading →
Dialing this one in a bit. I should be back tomorrow with a few to get me through the launch of the next World of Warcraft expansion. This is a straightforward berry sour from Wicked Weed. It's dry, sweet, and...well...berryish. It would taste like a sugarless koolaid if it didn't have the Brett flavor on... Continue Reading →
Time for an experiment! Same beer: draft and cask. Carolina Amber is a pretty nice strong bitter (or Extra Special Bitter if you want to chance incurring the wrath of Fullers). I like it on cask a bit better than on draft. The maltiness is really expressed in the cask while it's rather scrubbed in... Continue Reading →
I really like London. Been there thrice, going back next fall. One thing I've not really done well is appreciate the London pub. I'm not sure it's anything an outsider/tourist can really get into with the limited time spent in the city, but I'll give it shot next time I'm there. Tonight's beer is a... Continue Reading →
Couple of things about this beer. First, it's one of those beers that I never remember having. So even though I've checked it in only twice, there was a very long time where I was getting it a lot just because I'm an idiot. Second, first time I had this was back in 2014. I'd... Continue Reading →
Dialing this one in a bit because it's late and honestly...it's Aviator. It's going to be a hoppy mess. I've had this one a bit too long, so I'll say it was probably a bit better when it was fresh, but my consistent and infrequent (despite, at one time, being the closest brewery to my...

I took a practice Cicerone test tonight. I've not felt so dumb since organic chemistry in college. You guys tell me what dessert would pair well with a malty English Old aged in new oak barrels and why? I'll wait... Tonight's beer won't have a picture associated with it because the can is literally a... Continue Reading →
New brewery in the Quay, which is always welcome. Takes the place of the old Lincoln Brewing which went...somewhere. Great tap line up as they get their own up and running. Had their saison which was very good and will make a great base for all sorts of experimenting. We got to talk to the... Continue Reading →
I have a grill I should pull out and use more than I do. Big ol' manly grill. My favorite grill is this one the size of a notebook we take camping. Just big enough to cook up dinner for Bo and Nelly and no one else. Just like I like most of my trips... Continue Reading →
