The Single Malt and Scotch Whisky Extravaganza 2010!
Just a friendly reminder… The Single Malt and Scotch Whisky Extravaganza 2010 is fast approaching! Have you reserved your ticket yet?
Who hit the fast forward button???
It’s after 9PM on a random Saturday night, when all the kiddies are fast asleep. Clear skies, comfortable temperatures, and no chance of rain. The “Is the bar open tonight?” text messages start flying: Wookie texts G-LO, G-LO texts The ROK, The ROK texts Limpd, and so on. By 10PM, […]
Beer Review – Goose Island Sofie
I know I know. Yet another Saison/Farmhouse Ale review. I just can’t get away from this stuff! I’d never heard of Goose Island Beer Company till I dropped by the Alemonger’s house to watch some Monday Night Football. As luck would have it, the Chicago Bears were playing […]

The Wookie Speaks: Maxing out Mussels and Beer at Max’s Seafood Cafe
Max’s Seafood Cafe has long been a favorite for our family. Their mussels are to die for and the beer list is awesome.

Beer Review – Brooklyn Oktoberfest
It’s always worth paying a little extra for convenience. This past Monday, I decided to take a slight detour before getting on PATCO to head home, so I walked two blocks to The Foodery and picked up a mixed six-pack of beer. I estimate that The Foodery is […]
