Saw Works Brewing Company – The Full Buzz

13 May 2012 by , 7 Comments

Art takes many forms. I’ll never forget watching in awe as a single man, armed with a Stihl chainsaw – much like my own – carved an eagle out of a piece of wood that I wouldn’t have given much thought to had I passed it in the woods. Saws have been implements of creation [...]

28 April 2012 by , No Comments

Last night we kicked off an awesome evening at the Dancing Bear Lodge in Townsend to benefit New Hope. This has been my second year involved with this fundraiser and I must say while last year was great, what occurred last night was incredible.

Howdy fellow snobs – I hope you’re enjoying this warm weather as much as I am – seems as though spring has sprung. This past weekend a good friend of mine and I met in the great city of Atlanta, which I usually refer to as Dam-lanta as traffic snarls aren’t uncommon – being very [...]

Howdy fellow snobs – I hope you are enjoying this spring like non-winter weather we’ve been having. Upon arriving home today I noticed my neighbor cut his grass – which it needed, as mine does but I refuse to cut it on principle until at least March 1st…maybe mid-March, I haven’t decided yet.

Howdy fellow snobs! If you weren’t at The Market @ Washington & High last night for the bi-weekly tasting well, you missed out. For those not in the know, $20 gets you dinner, two pints, 5 selected beers to taste and 10% off of everything in the store – yes, that’s a steal. You’ll note [...]

Howdy fellow snobs! I’m coming at ya tonight with a beer that has been on my mind quite a bit lately. Not going to lie, I’m not big on the peppery foods - jalapenos, chili peppers – anything that has the potential to set me on fire on one end or the other, ain’t my thing. [...]
