In the post for our previous podcast, we had to work to make a somewhat vague connection between the beer we were trying (Surfari IPA) and music (Surfaris, the band). For this episode, the connection will not require as much creative license, but there is still some mystery involved. The beverage we will be sharing…

This episode of About Beverages is going to take on a decidedly local flavor. The word “flavor” is doing double duty as it is referring not only to being local, but that we are also highly anticipating the actual flavor of the beverage. We are excited to try a collaboration beer from two of the…

How can it possibly be that we are coming up on the end of another year? With the end of this year we close out the second decade of the 2000’s, which is even harder to comprehend. It is a bit of a reach, but it is accurate to say that with the beginning of…
