We Need Viewer Mail for Podcast #2!
Well as some of you know last week we began our podcasting for the Beer and Whiskey Brothers. The shows will be available soon through iTunes but there is a bit of a delay because iTunes has to listen to and approve the first one, then we should be able to post immediately after they […]
Avery Sixteen: Summertime In a Bottle!
Well the folks at Avery have gone and done it again. They have taken the flavors of the summer and bottled it for us all to get a taste. I know what you are saying, how can you taste a season, and I agree it is difficult to explain, but I will try my best. […]

Kettlehouse Cold Smoke Scotch Ale: Brown Goodness On a Warm Day.
Well, as some of you know the picture above is the view off of my front porch. You can see that summer is FINALLY here, as the grass is starting to turn a little brown even with being irrigated 2 times a day, and where it isn’t irrigated it is deep brown fire hazard type […]
How We Almost Had a TV Show, Part 2: “The Road to Victory”
The following is Part 2 of a five part story about how Don and I almost landed a TV show on Discovery. It’s a long tale (sometimes the good ones are) so I’ve broken it into a few “chapters.” You can find Part 1 here. Enjoy! Part 2: The Road To Victory Don and I […]
Why I don’t deserve to go to CANFEST
Buckbean Brewing has recently announced a competition, asking bloggers to write a post about why they deserve to be flown to Reno to attend something called CANFEST. Once all the posts are up, they’ll pick a winner. Yes, it’s a brazen attempt to generate blog buzz about the event and their all-can line up of […]
Oskar Blues Hits a Low Note
Well now they’ve gone and made me really mad! As many of you are aware Oskar Blues made an announcement that they were pulling out of Idaho in order to make their brew more available in larger markets. Sheesh, just expand already! You can read all about the announcement here. When I wrote that other […]
How We Almost Had a TV Show, Part 1: “The Comment”
The following is Part 1 of a five part story about how Don and I almost landed a TV show on Discovery. It’s a long tale (sometimes the good ones are) so I’ve broken it into a few “chapters.” I’ll be posting an installment each day until the story is complete. Enjoy! Part 1: The […]
The 10 Things That Make Craft Beer Better than Mass Produced Beer
Oh craft beer, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I was thinking about how two things that are very similar, craft beer and macro-brews, occupy very different parts of my brain. Both are beer, but one I adore and the other repels me. This also goes for the people who make […]
I Had to Drink a Fizzy Yellow Beer
It finally happened. I had heard of it happening to others, but I thought it would never happen to me…but it did. There was no other way to prove I fit in. I had to drink a fizzy yellow beer…and it was…Awful! Let me tell you how I got to this lowly state. My 18 […]
Is An All-Session-Beer Brewery a Good Idea?
I was checking out the Facebook musings of awesome beer writer Lew Bryson (friend him!) and discovered something interesting. There’s a new brewery getting off the ground called NOTCH, and they only make session beers. Everything they brew is under 4.5% ABV.
Stone’s Sublimely Self Righteous: The name says it all.
Smug! That is what I believe Stone has become with their newest offering, their black IPA that is aptly titled “Sublimely Self Righteous.” Now the first thing I want to say, and I know you Stone defenders will not hear this, but I want to go on record as saying that this is NOT bad […]
Craft Beer is Good Medicine
I know I’ve been writing about the benefits of craft beer lately, maybe too much. But I’m in a bad way right now. You see, I have the spine of a 75 year old man, at least that’s what the doctor said 10 years ago. I guess that makes it 85 now. Apparently I have […]
Victory St. Boisterous: Yeah, That’s the Ticket!
Some folks are so competitive, it’s almost pathological. The minute you see them you know you’re in for an earful of how great they’re doing, how much money they’re making or whatever their latest conquest or acquisition might be. And don’t bother trying to top them – whatever you’ve achieved, they’ve done better, whether it’s […]
