Brews and Bikes
I’m not the only one that see’s that beer and bikes go well together… Bicycling Magazine has a little overview of the best bike related summer beers up on their website. They say the beers are cycling related in either name, label or the breweries support of cycling. They hit all the big ones, I... »
Beer Roundup: What I’ve Been Drinking
Port Brewing Company: Hop 15. 22oz bottle poured into a pint glass This is a good and hoppy double IPA from Pizza Port, one of my favorite brewpubs. While I can’t make the drive up the coast to eat pizza and drink beer anymore, luckily I can find one or two of their beers at... »
Beer Roundup: What I’ve Been Drinking
Oskar Blues: Gordon. 12oz Can poured into a pint glass Described as somewhere between an Imperial Red Ale and a Double IPA I had no idea what to expect going into this beer. It was also my first times tasting a beer from Oskar Blues, and quite possibly my first craft brew from a can.... »
Four Corners Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo isn’t a Mexican national holiday, most people in Mexico don’t celebrate it at all.

Carver Brewing Co’s Monkey Wrenched IPA
Monkey Wrenched I.P.A. according to Carver Brewing Co’s website is “An over the top hopped I.P.A.”. The beer alone sounds good, but the story behind it makes it all the more special. Mike from Carver sent me this little tidbit about the name of the beer (and Carver/Durango history): “Monkeywrenched IPA” huge hop profile, assertive... »
Spring Tonic Elixir Release Party and the Repeal of Prohibition
