The other day, while out looking for something different, I picked up a six pack of Ellie’s Brown Ale from Avery Brewing Company. I felt secure in the purchase as the statute had run since my self-imposed Avery ban (see Philly Beer Week 2010), and since my fellow […]
Recently, while waiting for our cruise to depart, I went on an advanced scouting trip in search of dinner. The absence of a children’s menu at the local German restaurant thwarted my efforts. Having walked nearly two whole blocks, I felt that I was entitled to some liquid […]
As I mentioned in my review of the Maine Beer Company MO Pale Ale, this brewery’s website leaves a lot to be desired. All they have to say about their Mean Old Tom is that it’s a “Stout aged on special vanilla beans”. In their defense, they are a very […]
Previously, I had ventured to Kress Liquors’ wall of imports and picked up a mixed six. The Erdinger Hefe Weizen was the first that I had reviewed. I enjoyed that beer so much that I selected the Erdinger Pikantus Weizen Bock as the second beer. Erdinger has been […]
Whenever Mrs. G-LO invites the ladies over for a Friday night drinking/snacking/”sharing too much information” session, I’ll run out to pick up some hop-tastic beers for them to drink. There are two reasons for this quasi-generous gesture by yours truly: (1) the ladies love their IPAs, and (2) this […]
Looking for something different, I ventured into VG Liquors in Lawnside, NJ and found the Old Court Ale (a dark pale ale) among several offerings from the 16 Mile Brewery. 16 Mile, a brewer in Georgetown, DE takes its name from an old nickname for the area that was […]
I first had the Cuvée des Jacobins Rouge about 2 months ago during a Sudsy Sunday drinking session with The Usual Suspects (do I really need to mention them by name?) at The Pourhouse in Westmont, NJ. This beer was recommended to me by our friendly neighborhood bartender […]
We had several Sixpoint beers last summer (Bengali Tiger, The Crisp, Righteous Ale), but at the time, I was having some difficulty warming up to most of them. The Wookie will say that it was because I used to store my beer glasses in the same cabinet that […]
Balcones is a small, craft distillery from Waco, Texas that was founded in 2008. In 2012, they won the Whisky Magazine “Icons of Whisky Award” American Craft Distillery of the Year “for extending the art of distilling by creating a smoked whisky in which the spirit gets infused with smoke […]
The other day, a business trip left me in Chicago’s Midway Airport for a two hour layover, so to kill time, I thought a quick bite and a beer at Harry Caray’s Seventh Inning Stretch was in order. I picked a Holy Cow Burger, a side of baked […]
