I must confess that I have become addicted to sour craft beers. That was not always the case.

Five years later I moved out of the college which I was attending (University of Texas), but my homebrew kit did not make the move with me, it ended up in the dumpster bin. I realized that the […]
Are Beer Pairing Dinners Too Expensive or are they worth it? Earlier today on twitter(June 18, 2014), I said that the upcoming Banger’s – Avery Beer Pairing Dinner was “pricey” at $85.39.
