All through the month of December, up to Christmas Eve, we will be doing a quick review of a seasonal beer for our own enjoyment. You might like them, too.

A Journey for Fall Beer Leads to Coconuts. Coconuts? – Oskar Blues Death by Coconut

The weather seems to have us frantically jumping back and forth between late summer and mid-to-late fall lately, so a little alcohol is just what the doctor ordered to soothe my sore throat from the dry air and dramatic temperature changes. (What, your doctor doesn’t prescribe beer?

To be fair, Jim has never said a negative thing about our weekend trips to Lebanon, Missouri, every few months so my parents can see our boys (apparently the arrival of… Continue reading Boat Town Brewing: Bringing the Beers to the Bible Belt

Meeting Notes – August 2015 at KC Bier Co

Beer Scouts Meeting Notes: New Feature! I’ve been planning to do this for a while, but haven’t gotten around to it till now. My intention is to post a brief summary of each of our Beer Scouts meetings shortly after they occur. These will not be formal meeting minutes.
