The other day, G-LO stopped over for a quick beer (and then a whole lot of whiskey). I have noticed that he brings a beer to taste, writes up some notes and then passes them over to me. I am beginning to suspect that he is sneaking in […]
This #Beertography post is my answer to the The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge. Below is a bit more detail about this challenge: In a nutshell, a three-picture story is a way to help you think about storytelling with images. To create a three-picture story, gather: An establishing […]
Cowboys, lassos. cattle drives, and wide open prairies. That’s what comes to mind when I hear the word ranch. I also get visions of Robert Duvall in Lonesome Dove asking poor Diane Lane for a poke… As it turns out, I am completely off base. Hop Ranch has […]
The first thing that comes to mind when I think fixed gear is the Little 500. If you’re familiar with the 1979 film Breaking Away, then you know what I’m talking about. For those of you that aren’t familiar with the film, the Little 500 is a 50 […]
I haven’t had a bottle of Smuttynose beer since the Big A IPA that I reviewed back in February of 2013. For the longest time, Smuttynose was one of my go-to breweries, but you know how it goes. Once you start traveling down the Craft Beer road, you […]

San Francisco. It’s been on my short list of places to visit for quite some time, but for whatever reason, I just haven’t made it there yet. The Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Lombard Street, Fisherman’s Wharf, and numerous other sites are all on my “things to do in […]
The other day, G-LO came over to drop off #2 son. Never one to arrive empty-handed (as previously noted, his Mamma raised him right), he brought with him a bottle of Red Wheelbarrow from his favorite Maine brewer (and frequent summer vacation sanctuary), the Maine Beer Company. Of […]
Minding my own business (as I’m always wont to do), I was assailed by G-LO with another of his “great” ideas for a post. He thought it might be “fun” to try a couple of different world class porters and write it up as a post. While I […]
While I consider myself to be someone that enjoys a wide variety of beer styles, I have yet to fully embrace the Pumpkin and Christmas Ales that have been all over the shelves the past few months. Don’t get me wrong, I have definitely stumbled upon a few […]
