I’d been sticking too much to the west coast beers recently so thought this one would be a good pick for this week. It comes from Victory Brewing in Downingtown, Pennsylvania. One of our loyal readers(I believe it was Jeremy but I could be wrong) pointed me in Victory’s direction and I’m glad I listened. [...]

Yesterday was my berfday, thanks. I am 31, but feel like I’m 18. However, my joints say I’m 60. Originally I hadn’t planned on anything for my bday. Moe was just going to come over to hang out and play Guitar Hero on his Wii. As I got home, I noticed that there was tons [...]

These weekend we finally got a break from the cold and actually had a bit of warmer weather so I reached for something a little lighter. Unibroue is a Canadian brewery founded in the early 1990s. They mainly brew Belgian style beers but have some interesting alternatives to offer.

Looks like a Hef…but no
Ephemere is a [...]

There aren’t many top notch breweries in Southern Cali. Most the breweries or restaurant/breweries you visit are more bright lights and show than anything. Hey, we’re near Hollywood, go figure. There are, however, a few diamonds in the rough and Bear Republic Brewing is one of them.

Don’t judge a building by it’s paint!
Like my favorite [...]

We had a wet weekend here but boy did we need it. Then again it meant no mountain biking for the weekend which is always a bummer. The rain did stop for a little while, however, so I siezed the opportunity and jumped on the Night Owl. You know, carpe diem and all that. A nearby liquor store stocks [...]

New Year’s Day I found myself on a tough ride that started with a 6 mile climb. The wind was blowing hard all morning so my buddy and I were tuckered out when we got back to the trailhead. Luckily, I brought along a nice brew to end the year and start the new one off right.

One day late here. Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday. Brrr…it’s been a cold month! Well yesterday I found myself tipping back the final holiday brew for December. It’s made by Sudwerk Brewery in Davis, California and is a double bock(doppel bock). Bocks are a bottom fermented brews that take extra time to ferment in [...]

So I’m walking through the local brew store and happened upon this interesting little bottle. Ya, I’m a sucker for a funny beer label. What also caught my eye was that it was a Porter. Most holiday brews tend to be ales so I was more than happy to be back with a dark beer, [...]

Well we’re one week closer to the new year and one Brews Day further along in the month of December. Today’s beer of choice is from Full Sail Brewery, located in Hood River, Oregon. They’ve only been around since 1987 but have already established a name for themselves. So let’s take a taste of another [...]

A few weeks back one of our regulars, Jeremy, suggested I try this holiday brew. Being a dedicated beer investigator, I grabbed one up while trying not to wince at the $9 pricetag(one bottle). I’m going to preface my review by admitting that I am not a fan of Belgian ales. That being said, I [...]
