Thanks. I do enjoy your beer IQ. How do I go about getting tickets to the battle ship beer party? I am very interested in attending as well as bringing a few close friends. Either send location here or email me at posparts@yahoo.com

Hey John (and anyone else who's reading this). I've got a friend going up to NYC for a few days and she's bringing me back a couple of beers. They gotta be available in midtown manhattan. I found a Whole Foods close by and I think they carry Victory beers. I think you said Hop Wallop before but any others from them. Or any other breweries too that Whole Foods might have?

Thanks a lot.

10 Reasons why I'm giving up Beer Blogging.

Hi, friends.

You may have noticed that as of late I’ve slowed down my beer blogging considerably, and I have a very good reason: I’ve slowed my beer consumption considerably, and may very well stop drinking altogether.

I want to especially tha… Continue
