Portland is an interesting city. While Seattle is represented in the public imagination as either a grey, rain-soaked hangout for murderers (The Killing) or as a refuge for broken-hearted architects and the women who stalk them (Sleepless in Seattle), … [...]
Wrong you say? I disagree. Two of my favorite things in this world are bikinis and beer. Together, they couldn’t be more right. Yuengling Traditional Lager:Light aromas of citrus, sand, and hazelnuts accurately predict the taste of this smooth, re… [...]
Some people like Hefeweisen, some prefer an ice cold pilsner. For me, nothing says summer better than a delicious Pale Ale. I recently cracked two new Pale Ales, and as I expected I would, enjoyed both thoroughly!The first PA I had was Fire Rock Pale A… [...]
