Many many moons ago, when I was a much younger man, I spent a bit of time with the extended family in Agrigento, Sicily. One night, while enjoying a light and tasty cena with La Famiglia, my cousin poured me a beverage that consisted of 50% Fanta Aranciata […]
With the start of Memorial Day Weekend 2016 just one day away, I thought I’d share some of my latest adventures in Beertography. While I would love to go into greater detail and tell you so much more about each of the beers featured in this post, the […]
Way back in late November, Mrs. G-LO and I had a pre-theater lunch at a Center City Philadelphia bar called Strangelove’s. For you theater lovers out there, we went to see The Book of Mormon. Mrs. G-LO loved it, while I found it to be mildly amusing. It’s […]
I’ve met a few brand loyalists in my day. They say: I only drink Brand X. I like it, so why try anything else? That ain’t me. I like variety. Sure, I have preferences… I like hoppy beers. I like tart stuff too. A rich and roasty porter […]

“I fear we’ve entered into a new, and not too wonderful era of sophomoric brewing “creativity…” – The Alemonger The above quote was The Alemonger’s response when I asked if he’d seen Ballast Point’s Pineapple Sculpin in the South Jersey beer aisles. He sure does make it sound […]
It’s Word Association Day at Booze Dancing central! Here goes… Agave? Tequila! Grapefruit? Paloma! Paloma? Yes, Paloma. A delightfully refreshing cocktail made with Tequila and a grapefruit based soda, served over ice with a wedge of lime. That’s what popped into my head when I saw the label on the […]
