Ommegang Hennepin | From the fine folks at Corks Wine and Spirits
Howdy fellow snobs, I’ll be the first to admit, it’s been WAY to long since we’ve done a genuine beer snob post on here. However, tonight is the night! On deck this evening we have Ommegang Hennepin. Now, I’m not all too familiar with Ommegang and when it comes to saison’s, I’m still a novice [...]
School is Officially Cool Again | South College Announces Brewmaster Program
Howdy beer fans, For many who have wanted to make a career of brewing beer, to get the proper credentials they’ve had to head west or north to the lands they call “Chicago.” I’m happy to share that’s no longer the case.

Saw Works Brewing Company | Bourbon Barrel Double Chocolate Porter
B: there may not be a more important letter in the alphabet. The letter “B” is responsible for so many important things, beer being the obvious one but also bacon – dear to my heart, biscuit – who doesn’t love those? Bourbon – it needs no comment…I could keep going but let’s keep this clean [...]
Reflections on the Tennessee Winter Beer Fest
Howdy beer fans, As I mentioned in a post many weeks back, this past weekend was the Tennessee Winter Beer Fest – the second annual to be exact. The fest was nothing short of awesome! While I’m a BIG fan of craft beer, it’s the people that make this all worthwhile; you guys came out, definitely [...]
Lips of Faith – Biere de Garde
When I saw this bottle in the back of the beer fridge, I felt a little guilty. I bought it over two months ago with the intentions of writing this very post. Somehow in the flurry of winter warmers and holiday silliness, it slowly was pushed to the back and forgotten about. As I had [...]
