Day 1 of the Oregon Brewers Festival is done. I chose to forgo the media preview and instead I spent a lot of time in the Buzz Tent trying beers and visiting with the brewers at the table they have set up on the north side of the tent which is great wa… [...]

One of my co-workers, and possibly even friend (we’ll see), started a new website, which is a collection of lectures, debates, and documentaries he finds interesting. Seeking to build traffic for his fledgling blog, he asked me (begged really, even offering unmentionable favours) to post this beer documentary here. I wasn’t too keen, but then I [...] [...]

I don’t usually get to range very far afield during my weekly beer trips. Time constraints and things like opening times (blimmin’ Jolly Butchers) mean some interesting pubs and bars are just slightly out of reach. However, I was pulled like a magnet t… [...]

Dear Weyerbacher Tiny, Looks to me like you’re confused. You think you are a Belgian Imperial Sout, but you’re too watery to be a stout and you’re not Belgian. You are, perhaps, an expired sugar-free-chocolate-pudding blended with more booze than mouthwash and if there was ever a Belgian yeast in you, it drowned in the [...] [...]
Sorry this post is totally unrelated to beer or homebrewing, but I just had to share. I was taking a keg out of my garage to put outside for cleaning yesterday evening, and found this guy (or girl – I’m not sure which) by my side door. Need… [...]
The 24th Annual Oregon Brewers Festival is underway. And yesterday, I had an opportunity to sample some of the beers that festival organizers felt really represented what this year’s Oregon Brewers Festival is all about during a media preview event. In looking at the complete list of beers pouring at this year’s festival, selecting a [...] [...]
I’ve spent the last few months (when not working or traveling or fostering in-person friendships) discerning the direction for Catholic Drinkie. I’ve been extremely active on Twitter and as a result, have really neglected the blog. I’ve found the effort to write 140 characters is much easier than to sit down and write a few [...] [...]
It has not been the best night in terms of random luck — my iPhone had died and the craft beer bar was closed when we arrived after yakiniku — but the silver lining is that I found craft beer cans at yet another Circle K in town. It seems the word is… [...]
Today’s post is brought you by Newcastle Brown Ale – one of my favorite summer beers! I know, I know, Newcastle really isn’t known as a “summer beer”, but I’m not into those fruity light beers that they try to pass o… [...]

Is it OK to kill a cyclist?
OK, it's a strongly worded title, but I do wonder sometimes what message gets sent out when drivers who do kill cyclists seem to get let off very lightly. Is my life, as a cyclist, worth less than someone who is driving car, or am I worth more when ... [...] Read more →

The Dead Season
January rolls around. We recover from our holiday hangovers and prepare to cleanse and write resolutions for the year. Typically, the same sort of reset happens with craft beer and indie rock. Both industries take a moment to breath in preparation for the new year, even if it’s our last. I look at January as [...] [...] Read more →

Daily Slice: Decent Wood-Fired Pies at Toby’s Public House
The Manhattan branch of popular Sunset Park bar/pizzeria Toby's Public House finally opened a few weeks ago with a full menu of salads, antipasti, pizza, and desserts. The good news? Their oven is real wood-fired. To the best of my knowledge, it's the only wood-fired pizza oven in the vicinity of Little Italy, which gives it the potential of being the best pizza in Little Italy as well. [...] Read more →
