Checking under every bottlecap for the best beers around.
To be honest, there's no great story behind this review. It was the Logical Conclusion to my trip to my local beer store that I'd end up taking a can of this interesting looking IPA home with me to enjoy while watching the NBA playoffs. Thumbs up for me! Brewery: Threes Brewing (Brooklyn, NY) Rating:... Continue Reading →
Chainsaws And Kittens was purchased on the strength of the name and can art, as well as my interest in lesser known beer styles. I might do a longer post about the style itself, but Grisettes are a sub-category of the Saison. They are similarly dry and light. They were brewed mostly for miners, and... Continue Reading →
I've been reviewing (and drinking) a lot of New England IPAs recently - reflecting the current craft beer market - but I was really looking forward to this witbier from another brewery within a half-hour drive from my apartment. Frog Alley's Wit Your Mom is a good example of a witbier, and a refreshing summer... Continue Reading →
I picked up a can of TV Party New England IPA at my go-to local beer store because the can caught my eye while sitting on the 'new stock' shelf. I've had a couple of other beers from Radiant Pig and they've all been pretty good so why not give another one a try? How... Continue Reading →
Fort Orange Brewing is a local brewery for my wife and I, and we've grown to really love visiting. We are allowed to bring our dog with us, and there are quite a few great options to order delivery from so we like to set up shop at a table before ordering some food from... Continue Reading →
Geyser Gose is a collaboration between two breweries I typically have good luck with. Two Roads Brewing brews quite a few varieties of gose that are all pretty good, and Evil Twin (founded/owned by the twin brother of Mikkeller's founder/brewer) pretty much always has delicious beers - regardless of how crazy some of their names/ingredients...

My father-in-law travels down to West Point for an Army football game every year with some of his buddies, typically stopping at a brewery or two on the way there or back, and The Peekskill Brewery is one they've stopped by and mentioned to me. When I saw a 6-pack of their Valley Life New... Continue Reading →
I saw this bottle, with its understated brown cardboard-like label, and was sold. It just called to me in the way certain bottles or cans of beer will sometimes. Barn Beer Wild Ale turned out to be a great purchase! Our apartment has been without A/C for the entire summer and this beer was perfect... Continue Reading →
The noble wombat has been my favorite animal since I did a project on them for Biology class in high school, and Thin Man Brewery has brought that animal into the realm of my favorite beverage - beer. Trial By Wombat has a can to remember, and is a fantastic beer to boot. Aren't wombats... Continue Reading →
I picked up a 4-pack of Taproom Series #22 - "Pink Flamingo" while visiting Artisanal Brew Works over the weekend. Unfortunately, I started the day off by spilling my wife's beer all over myself while adjusting our table - but "Pink Flamingo" (and a replacement beer for my wife) cheered us right back up! Artisanal's Taproom... Continue Reading →
