What We’re Drinking | November 12, 2021

November 12, 2021 |

There’s something in the air today. Airborne disease? Probably. Pollution? Definitely — but there’s also something less tangible. Maybe it’s the godforsaken time change that turns early afternoon into pitch-black night for those of us living north of the 37th parallel.

What We’re Drinking | April 17, 2020

April 17, 2020 |

Most people in the country are a month or more into social distancing and stay at home orders, and have completely lost track of time and social norms.

Good luck to everyone out there—stay safe, stay healthy and support your local breweries! This is What We’re Drinking. Read More

June 16, 2017 |

The more time I spend on Twitter, the more I think I need therapy. Luckily, I got to hide in the relative safety of my beer feed. There aren’t any political posts in there. Wait… What’s that?
