Recently, while waiting for our cruise to depart, I went on an advanced scouting trip in search of dinner. The absence of a children’s menu at the local German restaurant thwarted my efforts. Having walked nearly two whole blocks, I felt that I was entitled to some liquid […]
As a part of a mixed six from Wegman’s, I picked up a bottle of Hacker-Pschorr Munich Gold. Hacker-Pschorr has been a leading brewer in Bavaria since 1417 or nearly a century before the enactment of the Reinheitsgebot Purity Law of 1516. Additionally, their brewing process had remained virtually unchanged for […]
The other day, while out looking for something different, I picked up a six pack of Ellie’s Brown Ale from Avery Brewing Company. I felt secure in the purchase as the statute had run since my self-imposed Avery ban (see Philly Beer Week 2010), and since my fellow […]

Whenever Mrs. G-LO invites the ladies over for a Friday night drinking/snacking/”sharing too much information” session, I’ll run out to pick up some hop-tastic beers for them to drink. There are two reasons for this quasi-generous gesture by yours truly: (1) the ladies love their IPAs, and (2) this […]
Looking for something different, I ventured into VG Liquors in Lawnside, NJ and found the Old Court Ale (a dark pale ale) among several offerings from the 16 Mile Brewery. 16 Mile, a brewer in Georgetown, DE takes its name from an old nickname for the area that was […]
This past Thursday, I received a press release from Profile Public Relations about a Craft Beer event sponsored by Iron Hill Brewery of Media, PA that benefits the Media Youth Center. Craft Beer, great food, and a very good cause. Sounds like a win win win to me! […]
