For Father’s Day, my lovely bride purchased a bottle of exotic beer all the way from the Czech Republic. The Žatec Bright Lager is one of six beers brewed by Žatecký Pivovar. Brewing in Žatec, dates to around 1004 when the first hops (Saaz noble) were grown in the area. […]
Once again, I found myself out at the store looking for something new. Having had several good experiences with Firestone Walker (you gotta love Beer Fridays at work) and had a number of good Black IPAs (Back in Black from 21st Amendment, Hoppy Feet from Clown Shoes, New Holland Black […]
A long while ago, I hosted a whisky night where each person brought two bottles that they were willing to share. Some of us brought an old favorite, some brought something that might be new, and some brought something new along with an old favorite. The latter was […]

A while back, I met G-Lo for lunch and on the way back to the train, I heard the siren’s call and found myself in the Foodery. Along with a number of sours (to further my education), I picked up a beer that I was fairly certain I […]
With the Superbowl on the TV and friends and family over until at least halftime, I had to provide some liquid refreshments. For my brother, a six pack of Labatt’s would do. However, for some of the craftier members of the viewing audience, I selected two bombers from […]
My better half gave me a sampler of the historic ales from Scotland. This sampler pack is from Williams Brothers Brewing Company, a Scottish brewer that began “operations” in 1988 using a single recipe and space at a 5 barrel brewery. Today, Williams Brothers is the sole remaining […]
