I can already hear these words coming out of the mouths of traditional beer drinkers everywhere: “STOP FRUITING UP MY BEER!”. While I can understand someone’s aversion to trying a beer with the words “Malt Beverage Brewed with Peach Concentrate” printed on the label, I am of the […]
Here is what Limpd had to say when I told him that we received a bottle of Anderson Valley beer in the mail: Hang on. Did you say Anderson Valley? You’d think that they would avoid us like the plague after all of our not so complimentary reviews of their […]

A while ago, I had stopped at Roger Wilco to pick up a mixed six and grabbed a Southern Tier Old Man Winter Ale as one of the six. Sadly, over the ensuing months, the beer fridge has seen its fair share of Gogurts and yogurts and half […]
