When I have to put together a beer news post in as little time as possible it is nice to be able to lean on my email account where family and friends have passed along enough to fill out a well rounded list of beer related articles and the like. So a big thank you is order to The Wife, Cousin Adam, Seattle Jeff, and The Artist Known as Ken! I don’t think I left anyone out.
- If you take a look at this map of winners from a few years ago and compare it to the breakdown of the list of winners from this year you can see that the distribution is pretty much the same. Sorry West Virginia!
- This is a good one to print out poster size for your bar area as a quick reference.
- Even knowing that hops has a very close cousin that is not exactly legal did not make me think I would ever see the beer industry and a pot legalization initiative in the same story.
- This one is to help remind me of one of the places where Seattle Jeff and I will have to get to next time I can get myself out there. It will have to be a long trip because the list continues to get longer. It is always good to have a lot of options.
- Now I do not own a bicycle, but if I did and certainly if I did and lived in Portland I would have to have one of these to go pub and brewery hopping with.
- Waiting about a hundred years to be able to try a beer sets some pretty high expectations for it and I will be sure to give it a try.
- An article that combines a summary of the brewing process with one of my favorite breweries is a no-brainer to share here.
- I do not see any on this list that I am likely to get to, but if you are in the area or can travel to any be sure to let me know about the fun you had!
