Just a little reminder of what will be going on at AboutBeverages.com for the week of July 27th – August 2nd 2014. This week the California Beer Train (choo choo) pulls out of the station and embarks on a multi-week journey all across the state. Our first stop will be in San Diego…
The first thing that came to our minds when reading Loose Leaf was tea of course. Unfortunately this beer from Odell Brewing does not use tea of any kind. What the Loose Leaf Session Ale does have is the promise of everything we’re looking for in this very popular style of beer: …
Just a little reminder of what will be going on at AboutBeverages.com for the week of July 20th – July 26th 2014. We are finally back this week with an all new show! Before we start the California Beer Train (choo choo) we thought we would ease into it with something sessionable from…

Just a little reminder of what will be going on at AboutBeverages.com for the week of June 29th – July 5th 2014. How do you follow up the last two weeks of Imperial/Double IPAs? With a seasonal stout of course! It happens this Wednesday with a “Give It A Shot” featuring the…

Just a little reminder of what will be going on at AboutBeverages.com for the week of June 22nd – June 28th 2014. The enjoyment we had with the double IPA from last week was not forgotten so we decided to bring another to the tasting table. It happens this Wednesday with a “Give…
