I got to personally cover my second Brewer’s Association sanctioned beer judging awards this past weekend, this one being the 2012 World Beer Cup. With 95 different categories from around the world, and multiple entries for each category, I couldn’t even begin to imagine what it must be like to judge that many beers, with [...]
Two years ago, I listed out 10 of the dankest beers, comprised of many of my favorite IPAs and Double IPAs. If you aren’t hip to what I’m talking about, several craft brewers have been making over the top, aromatic IPAs and Double IPAs may remind you of some fresh bud. Since that piece, many [...]
