Ungettable. That’s what Craft Beer and Whisky Geeks call that magical elixir that everyone wants, but few of us actually get. If you’re a Craft Beer Geek, then you already know how difficult it is to track down something like Founders KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) and CBS (Canadian […]
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 […]
Eighty years, one month and twelve days ago, the 21st Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified. This amendment repealed the 18th Amendment and marked the end of Prohibition, a 14 year period where the manufacture, transport, and sale of liquor was outlawed in the United States. To […]
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 […]

While bomber bottles (22 ounces of frothy goodness!) are great for sharing, it’s rare that I’ll have more than one 12 ounce bottle of beer when I’m working on a review, so when I saw that the Stone Brewing Company released its Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale in a single serving […]
I’m having a hard time believing that Christmas 2013 is just about over. Days of shopping, hours of wrapping, and POOF!, it’s all over in a span of minutes (I’m referring to the opening presents part. The eating and drinking is a two day affair). Thankfully, the Christmas […]
