Beer Newbies ... or Brewbies!

Though the majority of our Aleuminati brethren are erudite beer scholars obviously, there may be a few among us who are relatively new to better beer and could use a crash coarse in serious beer geekdom. If you are such an individual, please allow me to direct you to a couple of resources I posted months ago on other sites: This is an article I posted on… Continue

The Aleuminati Beer Council

So here's an idea I"ve been mulling around for a while. Let me know if you guys think it would be a fun idea, and more specifically if you'd be interested in participating. By the same token, let me know if you think it is lame and to keep my ideas to myself from now on ...! What if we did an official Aleuminati Beer Council ( the ABC, of course ... ), convening virtually either once a quarter or once a month right here on the Aleuminati to collectively review and discuss a partic… Continue

Beer Review - Brouwerij Verhaeghe Duchesse De Bourgogne

I love sour beers. Admittedly, they’re not for everyone but the puckering complexity of a good spontaneously-fermented ale is a thing of beauty to me. The musty nose, full of earthy goodness, and a palate replete with the tart flavors of ripe fruit, cider, and herbal notes is a singular experience.
