Checking under every bottlecap for the best beers around.
I sat down to watch college football today and needed a beer. I grabbed a Rothaus Pils out of my fridge with the thought that a German pilsner is pretty much the perfect style for sports on a hot afternoon - ignoring the fact that I'm indoors in the air conditioning. Rothaus Pils has a... Continue Reading →
I'm going to get this out of the way right from the start: this American Imperial IPA plays second fiddle to no beer. I tried to take a wonderful picture of the can with a trophy to emphasize this, but alas, I am no photographer and without a stock of props to make my artistic... Continue Reading →
This morning marks the first Saturday of English Premier League soccer action for the 2018/19 season, and my beloved Cardiff City's first season in the league since 2013/14! Given the time difference between the U.K. and Washington, DC - I woke up early and glued myself to the couch for a long day of footy.... Continue Reading →
Must Kuld, an American porter brewed by Estonian brewery Põhjala, lives up to its name - Black Gold. The beer pours almost black into the glass and has a pleasing silky texture and mouthfeel thanks to the lactose during the brewing process. Its aroma has undertones of chocolate and sweet honey, but leads with wonderfully... Continue Reading →

Then again, you had to know that taste is a subjective thing - and you're here to read my tastes and hope they... Continue Reading →

I love kriek and framboise beers and, of course, Belgians have perfected the art of infusing beer with great flavors - and I mean literally any flavor you can... Continue Reading →
I'd like to introduce you to the first beer I ever drank in Dublin, Ireland. I walked into a pub my first day in the city looking to get my first taste of "homeland" Guinness, waltzed up to the bar and requested a pint of Guinness only to be told that they don't serve Guinness... Continue Reading →
An Italian staple beer, Nastro Azzurro is a solid Euro pale lager. It's a really pale, straw color and looks watered down in the glass. The aroma is light and balanced between malts and hop smells, with hints of grass and some green apple. The taste is just as delicate as the aroma. It's more... Continue Reading →
This one is a well done oatmeal stout from Anderson Valley Brewing Company in California. It pours the dark black that is expected from an oatmeal stout, with a thick, sticky head that looks great. Barney Flats smells wonderful, with its oatmeal, chocolate, coffee, and malt aroma. It's sure to smell like something you'll want... Continue Reading →
