Let me start off by saying that when I can’t find that funky Craft Beer stuff that I love so much I usually reach for one of Sam Adams’ products. While most of the Boston Beer Company’s stuff won’t blow your mind it’s also almost always fresh and […]
Since it looks like the bitter cold weather is back, I’ve decided to try a dark and menacing beer this evening. Though 27 degrees is definitely cold (the current temp out there), I really shouldn’t complain, because it’s not going to get above 30 degrees in Kalamazoo, MI […]

A few days back my blog co-author (G-LO) and his lovely wife (Red) attempted to try Dublin Square‘s new location in Cherry Hill for a late dinner. After waiting over an hour on a very busy Friday night they were rewarded with a fire alarm, evacuation, and sandwiches […]
