I prefer these bombers over the JosephBrau line. The hefeweizen tastes like Big League Chew. Read more

I remember liking it when I started trying stuff outside the Sam Adams circle. Read more

One of my best friends in high school was Romanian. His family emigrated when he was 9, just before the revolution. Read more

Relatively new to the site so feel free to ignore if this is a stupid question, but have you tried/reviewed Pinkus Pils? I generally refrain from buying imports since they are so stepped on by the time you get one in your hands, but if you can find a reputable importer/seller this beer is near the top of my pilsner… Read more

Rye of the Tiger is a great rye pale, Commodore Perry is a good everyday IPA, and Chillwave is a wonderful imperial IPA — and Edmund Fitzgerald is one of the best porters out there. Their Christmas Ale has a huge following too (though I don’t care for spiced… Read more
