April 4th, 2008 – 4:13 pm

When I first met Jessica, I had no idea that I had just met every beer geek’s dream girl. Smart, beautiful, and a virtual walking beer encyclopedia.

Doppelbock Session: Ayinger Celebrator

January 4th, 2008 – 6:45 pm

Let me be the first second to admit it: I’ve fallen off the beer blogging bandwagon. I’ve been missing Session deadlines left and right. Heck, the last time I participated was way back in August. Why the lack of posts?

After much hype, and a lot of patience on my part, I was pleasantly surprised to see Craftsman Triple White Sage on tap at Father’s Office last night. I have been a fan of Craftsman ever since I turned […]

The Session: Black Sheep Riggwelter Yorkshire Ale

May 4th, 2007 – 8:14 am

(UPDATE: For the full Session roundup, check out the Brookston Beer Bulletin)
It was tough finding a beer for this month’s Session. This is my first time participating in Beer Blog Friday, so I really wanted to knock it out of the park and find something obscure and interesting. But finding an English Mild […]
