Fall is an odd time of year for me with respects to beer. Oktoberfest (aka Marzen) and pumpkin beers line the shelves, but with the exception of maybe two or three of them, I don’t care much for either of these beer styles. That being said, I’m always willing […]
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 […]
For the record, this is not the blog post that I set out to write. The blog post that I was planning to write was going to have the following title: “Cocktail Review – The Ginger Daiquiri”. So why the change of plans? Here’s what happened… Over the […]
Whenever I stumble upon a beer that I really enjoy, by a brewer that I’m not all that familiar with, I make it a point to dig deeper into that brewer’s line up to see how they handle other beer styles. Since I really enjoyed the Petrus Aged […]

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 […]
For this summer’s family vacation, we once again returned to the great state of Maine, but instead of staying just south of Portland in the sleepy fishing village of Camp Ellis as we did in 2011 and 2012, we decided to drive further up the coast. This time […]
Once again, G-LO was approached by some generous craft brewers and offered an opportunity to try some distinctive brews.
