A Belated Merry Christmas, Happy New Year And Some Beer Reviews

Written by on January 14, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Wow, it’s already 2012! The last month has flown by and I’ve been slacking (as usual) in updating this blog, for which I apologize. But, I have been reviewing beers and posting them to YouTube. I’ve also been taking a bunch of photographs and posting them to my photography blog, Mark’s Photography Spot. I started a Project 365 so I’ll be posting a lot of pictures (one each day). I also plan on doing a few equipment reviews in the next month, so check that out and please subscribe to it if you’re into photography at all.

OK, on to the reviews! I’ll start with the most recent (my 3 year anniversary special) and work my way back to the oldest:

Written by on December 7, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Wow, it’s the Holiday Season and I’ve been slacking with posting my reviews to this blog. I hope all of you have been doing well So, once again I present you with a beer review mash-up. I toss in a bourbon and camera lens review for good measure.

I’ll start of with a video review of the Canon 10-22mm lens that I rented for our trip out west. You can read more about it on my photography blog Mark’s Photography Spot. I have reviewed some good beers in the last month including some Sour Ales and Holiday Seasonal Beers. I even reviewed an afordable Kentucky Bourbon.

Here they are. Enjoy!

Written by on October 29, 2011 · 2 Comments

Wow,The month of October is gone! We’ve been super-busy with travel and with my new photography blog so I apologize for the beer review mash-up that follows. I’m going to make a concerted effort to get my reviews posted to this blog a little closer to the time they go up on YouTube.

In this latest “catch-up” post I review a Porter from Trader Joes, the latest collaboration beer between Terrapin and Left Hand, give you a beer cellar update, make some Posole and pair it with a collaboration between Terrapin and Schmaltz and finish with yet another Terrapin beer, their 2011 fresh hop ale.

Here We go!

Time to catch up with my latest reviews. We’re moving towards Fall and I’ll be transitioning to more dark beers like Stouts and Porters. So watch for more of those coming up.

The past couple of weeks have seen me review the Laughing Dog Dogzilla IPA, an Oktoberfest from Thomas Hooker, an Amber Ale from Rogue and the first Porter of the season from Founders Brewing.

Time to post my last few videos. This time I have a fairly wide selection for your viewing pleasure. I start off with the Cigar City Brewing Jai Alai IPA, which I’ve been wanting to try for a long time. I then review a Brown Ale by Brooklyn Brewing. I toss in another macro-lager from my past, Stroh’s and finish up with a dry-hopped Pale Ale from St. Louis brewer Schlafly.

Enjoy!

Two Kentucky Bourbons And A Bourbon Ale

Written by on September 1, 2011 · 2 Comments

A couple of weeks ago we took a long weekend to meet up with two other couples in the Bourbon area of Kentucky (about 20 miles South and East of Bardstown). We rented a farmhouse and spent a few days enjoying each others company, touring some distilleries, eating good food and of course enjoying good beer (and Bourbon). Read more »
