Before we get to our review of Sapporo’s Premium Black Beer, let’s talk a bit about the above photo. This is the last photo that I will ever take using my 9 year old Nikon D80 digital SLR. After I took this photo, my camera gave me the dreaded […]
Here’s what Prairie Artisan Ales has to say about Bomb!… Bomb! is an imperial stout aged on coffee, chocolate, vanilla beans, and ancho chili peppers. The peppers add just the right amount of heat to complement the intense coffee and chocolate flavors. Bomb! has been named a RateBeer […]
Since the New Year, G-LO and I have regrettably been forced to work at our day jobs and attend to many a family obligation. While the former may be of mutual benefit, the latter is probably not so beneficial. In any event, our plates have been rather full, […]

Ok, I’ll admit it. It was the graphic design of this can that instantly grabbed my attention while I was putting together a mixed six pack at Beer Heaven. The two shades of blue, that bright red-orange circle, the exquisite Japanese lettering, and the crisp, clean font used […]
Once again, I received a call from G-LO regarding his weekly booze mail shipment. I’m not sure who he knows, but it’s abundantly clear that we are not on the same mailing list. I may get the occasional Vermont Country Store catalog, but I haven’t found too many […]
It seems that there’s a National <Insert Whatever the Hell You Want to Promote Here!> Day for just about everything. If you hit a few not so random keys on your keyboard and type http://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/ you will quickly learn that November 4th is… National Housewife’s Day: “Make the […]
