Drinking is fun. Hangovers are not. There is no real cure for a hangover, but there are ways to minimize the damage. Here is my regimen: After an extended drinking session, you need something in your belly to absorb the alcohol. Breakfast food always works. Eggs, home fries, […]
Since fall is right around the corner, and since today’s temperature hasn’t gone above 75 (first time in over 2 months!), I thought I would change things up and review a dark beer. I usually like Smuttynose beers, so I’m going with their Robust Porter for today’s brew […]
The first time I heard about this beer was just before Philly Beer Week. The Philadelphia Weekly, a free newspaper that is available every Wednesday throughout the Metro Philly area, had a Philly Beer Week insert that outlined the events for the week, and also featured interviews with […]
Be forewarned, this post won’t have anything to do with Whiskey or other adult beverages. I recently returned from a quick family vacation to Williamsburg, VA. Part of the “historic” triangle. I don’t like to plan vacation down to the minute, but I do like to have a […]

A new distributor opened in the neighborhood and allows for the purchase of split six packs. As I perused the aisles, I was drawn to other offerings from Merchant du Vin. Always a fan of their Samuel Smith’s, I thought I would give the Lindemans Lambics a try. […]

Is Tuesday the new Friday? Is Wednesday the new Friday? This is the recurring question whenever someone suggests grabbing a few drinks on a weeknight that doesn’t happen to be Friday. As far as I’m concerned, Friday night is just a state of mind… let’s drink! Tonight’s destination: […]
