While in search of the Samuel Smith Apricot and some Magner’s Pear Cider, I hit the English wall at Kress Liquors and picked up a couple of bottles of Fuller’s Black Cab Stout. I have had a number of beers from the Fuller’s lineup (the Fuller’s ESB, the […]
Recently, G-LO had posted about the Yunkin’ Punkin’ Ale from Manayunk Brewing Co. In the comments, the Alemonger had suggested that the only two pumpkin beers worth a try were Southern Tier’s Pumking Imperial Pumpkin Ale and Shipyard’s Smashed Pumpkin. Since we had already tried the Pumking, I went […]
With the weather holding and the neighbors gathering on the patio, we have been experimenting with fruitier beers that the ladies might enjoy with us. Now, I’m not saying that fruity beers are a ladies thing. I am saying that our ladies tend to avoid our hop bombs and imperial […]
I was in NYC for a series of business meetings and found myself with a long break between meetings. I decided that I probably had time for lunch and a pint before the next meeting but one question loomed: Where should I go? Well, the office is not […]
Once again, G-LO was approached by some generous craft brewers and offered an opportunity to try some distinctive brews. Not surprisingly, he said yes (it might have been “YES!” or even “Absolutely!”, “Unreservedly!”, “Unequivocally!”, “Yessirree!”) to their offer. The package contained the current three beer lineup from Monday […]
A few days ago, G-LO forwarded an email from Jennie Hatton of Profile PR inviting us to attend the first pour at Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurants new Voorhees location. Usually, we would both jump at the chance for such an invite since (a) we like free things […]
A while ago, Mark Gillespie of WhiskyCast fame invited us over to partake in a Virtual Tasting. While the tasting alone would have been more than sufficient, he provided me with a lovely parting gift in the form of a sample of the second batch of Balvenie’s Tun 1401. This […]
My man G-LO was out trolling the interwebz when he was approached by Raj Sabharwal of Purple Valley Imports and offered a sample of the Blairfindy from Blackadder’s Raw Cask series. Never one to be impolite (he was raised right), he heartily accepted the offer. I was once […]
At work, we have tried to celebrate the end of our work week with Beer Friday. Each Friday at quittin’ time (or maybe just after lunch), we head over to the kitchen and partake of whatever fine libations are available. Of course, as we are responsible for buying […]
I stopped by the Roger Wilco just to look around. And the Leinenkugel’s Big Eddy label caught my eye. I had had the Russian Imperial Stout on several occasion and thought I had found it again. To my surprise, I had picked up a bottle of their Wee […]
