Recently on a white water rafting trip, in North Carolina I had to visit Ashville’s renowned beer-only store, Bruisin’ Ales. The store features over 800 beers from brewer’s worldwide and have a very nice local brewer section. I decided to pick up something I probably would not find in NY so I went with Sweet Water’s 420 Extra Pale Ale from Atlanta, Georgia.

It’s starting to get warm here in NY, so I thought I would pick up an old friend, Yuengling. It had been awhile since I’ve had a Yuengling and I believe my taste buds have changed a bit because, I didn’t get the same enjoyable response I have had so many times from this beer.

Blue Point makes a good beer or two so I’ve heard
so I decided to give their Springfling Ale a go at these taste buds. I’ve got to say that even though it seems to be a well crafted beer, there’s nothing in particular that really draws me into it.

I’m always a fan of seasonal/session beers. It seems that they allow the brewmasters to get their creative beer juices flowing and this my friends is a good thing! Sure, it’s wonderful have those tried-and-true favorites, but there comes a time to break forth into bolder and tastier lands!

Interestingly enough, it was a honey lager that proved to be my entry beer. We all have that special “one” that opens our eyes to the glory of the great brewhaha. That being said, I have a special place in my heart for beers made with honey.
I really enjoy Blue Moon’s brews, especially [...]

I’m big on keeping my “Man-ish” slim figure which is often hard to do as a beer consumer, so light beers are often key when it comes to choice of beer some nights.

When it comes to being magically delicious, Magic Hat #9 is about on par with a late 80s version of David Copperfield. Finding a beer with a unique taste, a good one anyway, is the joy of any real man’s heart.
