So I was chatting with a friend and fellow beer fan the other day and we were discussing our weekend plans. I had mentioned that I was attending a tap takeover event, to which she replied, "what's a tap takeover?" It was in that moment when I stumbled upon an interesting observation:...  more »

I recently posted a review of one of my all time favorite beers: the always delectable Bell's Hopslam. This beer is often considered a seasonal Holy Grail in the craft beer world. The demand is high and supplies are always limited. I refer to this beer as "the precious" because I subs...  more »
