A Pint in a BARn at Piney River Brewing
23 May 2013 by 1 Comment
My wife and I were lucky enough to visit Belgium on our honeymoon. (Sorry to keep bringing this up.) On that trip we drove from Bruges to the St Sixtus Abbey, where the Trappist Westvleteren ales are made. Traversing the Belgian countryside in a rented car using only iPhone GPS and tiny, street sign-size wayfaring markers as […]
New Belgian Invasion – Clips of Faith and Much More
21 May 2013 by Leave a Comment
The Rangers from Ft Collins are marching (or probably biking) their way across America and they’re stopping in Kansas City for a set of New Belgium Brewing events in the first week of June. This will include a tap takeover at Bier Station and the always fun Clips of Faith at Theis Park, across Cleaver Blvd from […]
Take Note! Free Festival Rating Book
17 May 2013 by Leave a Comment
We love a good beer festival. It’s the most efficient way to try a slew of new beers for a relatively low cost. Plus, it’s social, exciting, and you might even be able to talk beer with the actual brewers. One of the shortcomings though, is remembering which beer was so awesome when you tasted it. There are […]

A Visual Tour of the World of Beer
30 April 2013 by Leave a Comment
I’m a graphic designer. I knew that’s what I wanted to do when I was a kid. I’d spend evenings in grade school drawing football helmets and baseball uniforms. I was a good student and might have been able to go into a different career path and make a much better salary than I do now. But I know what I like to do, and if I can […]
Scouting for Some Mint in Your Beer – Boulevard Tripel Julep
30 April 2013 by 6 Comments
You’ve probably already heard about Boulevard Tripel Julep, the special one-off mint julep-inspired beer that is being releasing on tap this week. If not … it is Long Strange Tripel aged in bourbon whiskey barrels and spiced with fresh mint leaves. Sounds derby-tastic! The first keg was tapped at the Reiger last night. But don’t […]
Love at First Sip: Free State’s Oatmeal Stout Opened My Taste Buds (and Mind)
26 April 2013 by Leave a Comment
There are gateways to the West, gateway drugs and, yes, gateway beers. And today, well, I’d like to share with you what my gateway beer is. What little glass of awesome turned me from drinking only beers with the least amount of taste (Yep, I was that girl in college. Amaretto sour, please!) to beers that […]
It’s CoMo Good: the 2013 Missouri Beer Festival
18 April 2013 by 2 Comments
My wife and I have a couple of friend who both graduated from the University of Missouri. After graduating, they moved to Kansas City, but one of their jobs took them back back to Columbia a few years ago. When the four of us get together, we catch up with discussions of new restaurants or events we’ve been to […]
SpudsMcKenzie’s Gateway Beer
17 April 2013 by Leave a Comment
Growing up in rural Kansas, I was frequently exposed to all of the “lesser beers”. My dad was a Coors Light guy in my formative years, and as we all did, I would sneak a drink or two from my dad’s can when he left the can unchaperoned. I can remember thinking, “Is this adulthood? Is this the promise of being […]
A Beer Event Calendar to Rule Them All
11 April 2013 by Leave a Comment
I think we’re done with snow. We’ve had a 70° day. So that must mean that spring is actually here, right? Time to talk baseball, soccer, and beer festivals. While we cannot keep up with news on the Royals or Sportos, we will inform you on upcoming beer tastings, festivals, and dinners. How, you ask, will […]
