Site News: HoB upgrades aplenty »

Greetings readers,
I have been working diligently to perform a boatload of maintenance on the site. You will notice the new look, but there are many new features under the hood. Those of you who frequent the site will notice that spam is gone, which came from a variety of security enhancements. […]

holiday SPAM… »

Well Merry Beermas and Chanukah and Ramadon but not Kwanza. Drawin’ the line. But ANYWAY… some of our holidays seem to have been full of SPAM. The Captain goes on one little multiday beer fest, and when he returns to port (uh… webport!) he finds the marina strewn with Canadian Pharmacy Free Drugs No Prescription […]

Site News: Altbier ist hier! »

Zee General reports that the Altbier brewed last month turned out great. After a 60-hour week at work, the General and his wife headed to Shenandoah Brewing Co. for some fun times…bottling. Bottling is actually a strenuous activity. Sadly, I think we each only had one beer each during the process. The machines we need […]

A new month, a new beer and SPAM! »

Friends, as 2007 winds down, as my Belgian Wit beer bottle ages, as the air turns ever more crisp and the days grow shorter, and as this sentence runs on and on… why, I ask, is HallofBeers suddenly getting spammed like a champ? I know not, but know it’s not cool. And I am about […]

Site News: General German has made…Altbier! »

 Some Site News:
Captain, Kolonel, and Sarge–I am delighted that you will be in DC for Xmas, as I will indeed have my Altbier ready-to-go. I must say it wasn’t easy. The General’s wife has a bad cold, so I made the brew pretty much all myself (except the General’s father dropped by to help him […]

Coming Soon: Trumer Pils »

Folks, I’m still alive, despite horrible corn moonshine (it may have been e85 for all I know) and the Captain’s best efforts. Bonus: I’ve discovered another pilsner available in this city and a review is forthcoming. Hold your breath (if you suck)….
In the meantime, look at this. It’s pretty sweet.

Happy Beerthday, Captain »

Yes, fellow patriarchs and honored guests of the Hall, today is Captain Beer’s beerthday. Let us all raise a glass and toast his surviving another year. Recommend blowing the candle out prior to consuming, particularly if you live in Southern California and want to preclude adding to the current apocalyptic conflagration, or at least avoid […]

It’s Private Pilsner’s birthday… so like… he’s closer to death »

Everyone, gather ’round and raise high a mug for the Private. He’s passed another year and, while he may be a lusty and boil-covered-Dickensian-urchin type, it’s his birthday… so please don’t use any accurate adjectives to describe him until midnight. Then let the derisive and merciless mockery begin anew.

Welcome Brigadier Bock! »

Well, tonight some members of the fleet got together to welcome the newest member to our ranks: Brigadier Bock (pictured on the far left). In typical “Hall of Beers” fashion we didn’t just go drinking, but donned fake moustaches before unleashing ourselves on some of my local bars, including my favorite haunt, “The Snake Pit.”
He […]

The site is born! »

Well, today we got together, picked up a bevy of quality brews, and got to work building this site. There is much work to be done, and we will continually be working to make it a better site. So grab a drink, peruse away, and be sure to come back later!
