It’s summer time. The skies are blue, the grass is yellow and the patios are full. If you’re looking for a traditional deck companion, you’re often looking at a wheat beer. Sometimes called a white beer (like Rickards White), these use a large amount of wheat instead of barley, big surprise. Of wheat beer, there [...] [...]

Qualcuno ha avuto la mia stessa idea. John Fortunano compara l’ascesa della birra artigianale con la conquista dell’America da parte dei Fab Four. E da noi? Anche se piuttosto lentamente (almeno in termini qualitativi e di movimento, non certo per numero di birrifici) il riflusso della reinassance americana sta iniziando a farsi sentire. Nei ’70 [...] [...]

Ok, so I’ve been meaning to bring these over here for awhile. They’re my pub reviews of places mostly in Victoria, but I’ll do some in other places as well. So ya, I’m kinda reusing these as word fodder for this blog, but I know not many people read it, so it’s kinda new, right? [...] [...]
Yesterday I made it over to Triple Rock Brewery in time to watch Nathan Smith finish up his Pro Am brewday there. Participating along with him were Brewmaster Rodger Davis and Brewer George Kumparak.

All my boddhisatvas appear on the streets of Staré Město. We were on Dlouhá, close to Lokál, and Jonas was just waking up from his afternoon nap; I was wet from the rainstorm that had just passed.

Event Preview: OR: Black Friday oasis at Green Dragon, 11/25
Portland, OR - Black Friday. I remember a time when one could wake up at 6 AM, stumble in for coffee and donuts, and then buy a few price-reduced items. Today all that is out the window. Want coffee and donuts? Go to a Starbucks or nearby ‘mom & pop’ operation. Want to save money this holiday season? Don’t go to sleep on Thanksgiving and camp outside the nearest ‘brick and mortar’ store. But [...] Read more →

Ossett Treacle Stout
I love this stuff, I really do. It's got tonnes of latte-like coffee creaminess on the nose, which is followed by a more intense coffee hit. Within the deceptively rounded body there's that sweet milk-chocolate note, which ends up super-sweet, courtesy... [...] Read more →

CanFest 2011
When it comes to beer festivals there’s usually a lure to attract attendees. It might be a specific style, a locale, a fund raiser or in some cases, what some individuals might label a gimmick. In Reno this weekend, I was there to attend CanFest, a festival focused on canned beer. Was this all gimmick or . . . → Read More: CanFest 2011 [...] Read more →

I pulled into @bierobar for a beer that had been tipped to me. I bought it (a magnificent hoppy) beer called @victorybeer HopDevil. It was magnificent, as tipped.

Big swinging langer
Our beer culture in Ireland is, to a very large extent, pub based. Even when we're not in the pub we tend to prefer approachable beers in the 4-5% ABV range. Below that is perceived as low-rent pisswater; above it is crazy loopy-juice. It results in a ... [...] Read more →
