Today I have another brew that was brought to me from Australia. Fat Yak Pale Ale is brewed by the folks of Matilda Bay Brewing in what they like to call their “Garage Brewery”. Founded in 1984 Matilda Bay’s brewers seem to have a passion for the art of beer and enjoy experimentation including the [...] [...]
Yeah we know it’s way past Christmas! But there are still random bottles of the heavy winter stuff floating around so we’re tossing this review in to the ring. From the Port Brewing Company in San Marco CA. the Santa’s Little Helper is a 10% ABV Russian Imperial Stout! We didn’t talk about a lot [...] [...]

Ordinarily when I brew a beer I will leave it happily fermenting away for at least a week before I concern myself with how things are progressing. On this occasion two things have led me to take a look earlier than normal. Firstly the yeast I used was … [...]
Not this girl. But it never fails, whenever I mention this delightful combination, I undoubtedly get the quizzical, head-cocked, eyebrow-raised reaction. I bet even some of you are a bit skeptical…. But it is my firm mission to see that beer claims it’s rightful spot at the breakfast table. Don’t get me wrong, I love [...] [...]
I wasn’t very satisfied with my efforts last Monday so I thought I would try the same brew again with some slight modifications. I dissolved 3000 grams of dried malt extract in 10 litres of water at 40C and placed in the boiler. To this I added a furth… [...]
Sunday was quite the trip. It lingered through Monday, but no regrets. Upright Brewing rocked my world. Le Pigeon made me redefine the word “burger.” Upright Brewing was celebrating their 2nd Anniversary, so we made it a point to get their early to taste the new release. But, we couldn’t help but to shuffle around [...] [...]

Interested in home brewing but nervous about how to begin? I know when I started I had all the equipment and a few books but I still wish I had some visual tutorial. Well look no further than this DVD. This DVD specializes in extract brewing which most every beginner starts with. It’s a great [...] [...]
Sierra Nevada Hoptimum: The enjoyable label is the first thing that is eye catching. Gives a different meaning to the phrase Hop-head. Green is an appropriate colour. One must enjoy HOPS to trully appreciate this beer. It is one of a kind.Citrus… [...]
I’m on record as complaining that library schools and MLS/MLIS programs aren’t rigorous enough. It seems that anyone can get in, GRE scores aren’t required for most programs, and once you’re in, it’s hard to get less than a B (or 3.0) average… [...]
This sign’s next to the intriguingly named Slaymaker Lane, just outside Oakworth. The Lane is a place of childhood dares, myths and folklore. Pleasant in the daytime, at night the high stone walls and the thick curtain of trees make it darker than norm… [...]
After a truly debaucherous Mardi Gras in the Big Easy I decided to recover in Austin and check out their beer scene. Of all the restaurants and pubs that I visited one spot truly stood out above the rest: The Flying Saucer (on Twitter @FlyingSaucerAus…. [...]
Silky and quite ashy on the palate, this beer makes no bones about being a big malty beer. It has a nice bitter hop backbone, a minty middle, and a good thwack of heat on the finish – a desired attribute of this hefty export style of Porter. Fresh pops… [...]

The Lager style of beer is brewed/stored at low temperatures and was first developed by German brewers. The name Lager derives from the type of beer aging, called “lagering” which is a bottom fermenting yeast method. After World War II, the pale style lager began growing in popularity throughout Europe. Today it is still the [...] [...]
Episode 54 . During a time where the end of the TBQ is near, two individuals decided to take over Hawaii’s favorite video beer podcast. In this episode The REAL Russel and Bully take a back seat as Kaeo and Steph review Tokyo Imperial Stout by BrewDog breweries. At 18.2% and already a few beers in, does Kaeo and Steph have what it takes to be viable replacements of the Original Beer Queers? Let us what YOU think in the comments! Thank you again for all the support! One love. [...]
While I have little to report on the beer and brewery front, there is much to report on the chicken front. We have been raising chickens for about four years and have kept several different breeds. Each spring we would order a new batch of … [...]
Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. located in Chico, CA is likely a name you’ve heard of, even if you aren’t necessarily a big beer person. Their ubiquitous Pale Ale is one of the great brews that helped start the micro brew revolution and coincidentally it sta… [...]
A great little set of satirical comics about Tomme Arthur of Lost Abbey/Port Brewing were recently released (announced by the author/cartoonist himself on Beer Advocate) and it seems that Lost Abbey is appropriately amused – so much that they reposed it on their Facebook page! If you have any sense of the awesome beers and beer-geek-dramas associated [...] [...]
