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.

Hiding beer in your crawlspace is so 30 seconds ago. If you want the ultimate brew storage solution, you need to add a Brew Cave to your next renovation…
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 […]
Let me preface this post by saying that I know this is the guys at Dogfish Head (DFH) doing a goofy, spoofy video, and if it was a fictional product, it would be a good laugh, but this is for a real product, and I think Sam Calagione, in […]
