Hall of Beers

Friends, The Captain admits he’s been up on deck a bit less than usual recently. I’ve been busy but dammit, no excuses… I need to be there more often for you beautiful beervolk or my name is asshat. I do hope my recent absence hasn’t left a bad taste in your mouth:
* But, well, […]

OK… I forgot to take pictures. Sue me.* So here is a doctored picture of Sgt. Stout and myself (we love our Brigadier Bock, but he was absent from yesterdays brewing**) and uh… so here’s us. To set the mood.

So it was (or we hope it will turn out to have been) an interesting brew […]

Friends, it was a lovely time. A tasty time! A Belgian Beer tasting time! Sergeant Stout, Admiral Ale and Brigadier Bock gathered around with ‘ol Captain Beer and we strode over to the superlative Red Carpet Liquors—one of Mrs. Beer’s and my favorite haunts!—and reveled in good beer, wisdom and revelry! Yes we… we reveled […]

Gather round children, for I come bearing words of encouragement, rather than disgrace (reference my Apocalypse post of two months ago).

Friends, the Captain has designed a business card for all of his contacts and business associates through the Hall of Beers. It most certainly rocks:

I didn’t know you could define the word “Awesome” without words, but you can, beer readers, you can.

Friends, in my lifelong quest for better beering, I recently came across a website—the homepage for our friends from the Culver City Home Brewing Supply Co. in fact—that gives a number of wonderful lookin’ recipes for your (in this case “your” meaning “my”) home brewing pleasure! Most stores, sites, whathaveyou, are very cagey about giving […]
