This isn’t going to help keep our egos in check.  Don and I have been profiled on the site UncleBoise.com, where writer Crandal Bourdeaux does a great job of reviewing B&WB and sharing how Don and I got our start. Here’s a little taste:

I can’t believe that Saturday’s freak snowstorm on the east coast has left thousands of homes in the dark STILL!  With over 19 inches of wet and heavy snow falling in parts of Northern New Jersey over 600,000 homes were impacted, and this includes my better half on this blog,Jim.  He didn’t have power Saturday […]

It seems like just a couple months ago when we were inundated with legal actions within the world of craft beer that just served to weaken companies that were responsible for the craft beer movement.  We were “eating our young” as it were with craft beer companies suing each other over beer names, employees, labels, […]

This morning on my way into work I had to make a quick WalMart run.  My wife has been couponing to save our family $$ and she made a run to WalMart yesterday, and had a few things she forgot so sent me this morning on my way into work.  As I was making my […]

. . I’ve seen this link floating around the Interwebs lately, but didn’t click on it until this morning – this is totally nuts! Some dude with too much money, talent, time and technical skills wired his entire house to “sing” This is Halloween from The Nightmare Before Christmas.  You gotta see it to believe […]

Well you know how much we love lists around these parts, like not at all.  But this is a bit different than some of the other lists that have been put out there before.  The World Beer awards have come out for 2011, and these are a bit more unique than some of the other […]

. . Ever wonder how the more-huggable of the bros spends his afternoons (when he should be here, fielding your comments)?  Well, this might answer that question. What is it with this site and bears, anyway?! . . .

When it comes to gender, our readership is a little lopsided.  Of the 12,000 or so folks who came through the site over the past month, 68% of our were dudes and 32% were ladies.  This is a bit less balanced than other spirits-related blogs, which tend to be about 55% men to 45% women.  […]

That’s right, Mad Men’s Red Headed Bombshell thinks that scotch whisky is sexy.  It was one of the things that attracted here to her husband, Geoffrey Arend.  He ordered Scotch when they were out on a date, and she thought that was sexy.  I’d say it worked out well for Mr Arend!  You would never guess […]

Sometimes it is good to have well connected friends.  I went to Brewforia for lunch today and my buddy Rick who owns the placehad a friend drop this baby off for him a couple weeks ago.  I had heard that there can be a lot of issues with Pliny if it is too old.  Not […]

Here’s something you don’t see every day.  It seems the old shelves at Superior Wine in Sheboygan, Wisconsin couldn’t handle the weight of the wine that was laden upon them, so they decided to give up in quite a spectacular fashion. The security footage shows what is essentially a flood of wine and champagne sweep […]

Ever wondered what would happen if you tied your trusty chainsaw to a rope and swung it around your head to trim your hedges?  Well wonder no more! From the looks of this video, it appears that you’d lose a leg one-out-of-three times you attempted it, which means this genius only has two more tries […]

  Here is a quick video satire of the new brew collaboration between Dogfish Head and The Bruery.  Looks good, and I might be able to get a taste out here, so I’m looking forward to it hitting shelves.  

Hello, my Name is Don, my brother’s name is Jim, and we want to speak directly to you…the lurkers.  We know you are out there.  You come to the website every week and you look at what we post, and you read our comments.  You find this site entertaining so you keep coming back, but […]

Wow – one little mention of Fox News in our latest infographic and the comments section turns into a political battleground!  CTFO people!!  I was just making a joke about drunks and politics, and you’re turning it into Point-Counterpoint! Speaking of that, I googled Point-Counterpoint and came across this cool old clip from Second City […]
