Another weekend over with. I hate Sunday nights, because the only thing that you look forward to is the start of a new work week. I have to pick my sister up from the airport in a few hours, so I’m not going to be home until later, so I figured now was a good [...]

It’s almost the weekend. After a good workout at the gym and a trip to the library to pick up some more audiobooks (given that I commute about 2.5 hours a day, it’s at least semi-productive), I hopped in the shower and then watched the end of the Phils game. Katie also brought dinner over [...]

This should be the last review for the night. I’m still in shock about how productive that I was today. Usually when I take a day off, I hope that I’m productive, but something always happens. Today was the complete opposite. I’m finally to the point of the night where I can relax and watch [...]

Happy New Year’s everyone! I thought that today was going to be a productive day for me. I had to get a bunch of stuff done because I have to work tomorrow. I was thinking I’d bang out some of the things on my to-do list, clean out my fermentors and start planning my next [...]

After a bit of a hiatus, I’m back. For Thanksgiving, I pulled something out of the cellar to share with my family. I figured that since it was a fruit-centric beer, and probably something that my family hadn’t tried, they would enjoy it. Plus, I’ve read that the fruit dissipates a bit with age, so [...]

I saved this brew to taste with Chris. After she said that she really liked Dogfish Head’s Old School (another barleywine), I just didn’t feel right having it without her. We finally got around to tasting this monster last week. I do like the whole concept of the Nemesis line from Founders, putting a special [...]

Another fresh hop beer from one of my favorite breweries, Founders. When I went to the beer store, specifically for this beer, it was so new that they didn’t even have the price scanned in yet. I think I actually got it the first or second day they got it in. That’s how I roll. [...]

Another beer from a brewery that I really enjoy. I’ve heard great things about their IPAs specifically, but I’ve never had them. Founders Breakfast Stout was to die for. That was simply one of the best beers that I’ve had. The other Founders brew that I had was the Cerise, which was interesting, but definitely [...]

This beer has gotten rave reviews on so many websites that I had to try it. Despite the heat, I had to try this. So, I took a cold shower, cranked up the A/C and poured this bad boy into the stemless after letting it warm for 10 minutes. ABV: 8.3% Style: American Double / [...]

After coming home from the bbq, I’m craving a beer. I’ve had the Cerise in my fridge for awhile, so I guess I’ll go for that. I’ve also heard a lot of great things about Founders Brewery, so I’m pretty excited to try it. ABV: 6.5% Style: Fruit/Vegetable Beer Trivia: Cerise refers to the color [...]
