Grin and Beer It: November 2012
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Sunday, November 11, 2012. So I found myself in DC recently, on a business trip. I was hoping to do a little exploring on my own, and one night - I did! When I'm in a new city I like to research places I might like to go. Generally these places may incorporate any or all of the following: good beer, good music, homosexuals. In that order. I did not find the homosexuals but I did find the beer - at Birch and Barley. Yay for food and drink!

http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2015/02/120-minute-ipa-2011-and-2014.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Sunday, February 8, 2015. 120 Minute IPA - 2011 and 2014. Is an intense beer. From the Dogfish Head website: "Clocking in at 15-20% ABV and 120 IBUs, it's easy to see why we call this beer the HOLY GRAIL for Hopheads! 120 Minute IPA is boiled for a full 2 hours while being continuously hopped with high-alpha American hops, then dry-hopped daily in the fermenter for a month and aged for another month on whole-leaf hops. I enjoyed it but had t...

Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Thursday, January 1, 2015.

Grin and Beer It: Northern hawk amber ale on Fathers' Day
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2013/06/northern-hawk-amber-ale-on-fathers-day.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Sunday, June 16, 2013. Northern hawk amber ale on Fathers Day. So I wanted a beer and it's Fathers Day. We've had a nice weekend. At the store I decided to get an amber ale since that's my dad's favorite style and he's learned to feel trepidation at some beers I enjoy. This is Northern Hawk Owl amber ale from Traverse City, MI. Pretty nice on a June evening. Cheers, dad. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I've always enjoyed a beverage or t...

Grin and Beer It: Spicy Cocoa Stout
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2013/07/spicy-cocoa-stout.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Wednesday, July 24, 2013. So sometimes I go visit my sister in Bloomington, IN. When I'm there, I always go to Sahara Mart. Which has all kinds of lovely delicacies, but my favorite part is their two very large aisles of beer. The first aisle has local selections, and US beer. The second aisle is international. I could spend a long time (and much money) in that place. And usually do (with some restraint). Beer body, LLC. I've always enjoyed ...

Grin and Beer It: September 2012
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Thursday, September 27, 2012. New Brewery in Lansing! Lansing is small enough that I usually know the latest "haps," if you will. But I stumbled upon this new business purely by accident. I randomly decided to take a different route to work yesterday and saw a small green building labeled "EagleMonk Pub and Brewery". Approximately 2 blocks from my job. They opened less than a month ago, and I eagerly stopped by after work that same day.

Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Sunday, July 7, 2013. 3 Big Atwater Beers. I want to like Atwater, because its from The D and all. I picked up a few bottles of their big beers to try over the July 4th holiday. First I tried their Black Imperial Stout. The label informed me that Atwater has been brewing since 1917 and this stout contained 11% alcohol. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Belgian Strong Dark Ale.

Grin and Beer It: 3 from Asheville, NC
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2015/01/3-from-asheville-nc.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Thursday, January 1, 2015. 3 from Asheville, NC. My sister's BF is from Asheville, NC. I've never been there, but I do know it is considered a great beer city, even winning the "Beer City USA" award. The Kashmir English Style IPA. Poured a light and clear amber; the sudsy white head dissipated and left lacing around the glass. It smelled like orange and tangerines; also some grass and bread. This was a less intense IPA than the Green...I've ...

I have not been blogging much lately but do feel the need to capture my "exBEERiences" (sorry) while travelling in Denver, CO. I'm here for a conference but have pockets of free time to do a bit of exploring. After a quick dinner I stopped at Rock Bottom. 3 from Asheville, NC. Several years in a row. So when they went there on a recent trip, I hinted that some beer would sure be nice. Lo and behold my siste...It po...

Grin and Beer It: May 2013
http://grinandbeerit.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Grin and Beer It. One Woman's Venture Into Beer Sophistication. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Taps 25 and leinenkugels Big Eddy series. I didn't know leinenkugel's had a "big eddy" series. I mostly think of leiny's as my Wisconsin college days brewery of choice. They offered us beer pansies Berry Weiss and Honey Weiss, not selections I'm prone to make these days. Sunday, May 12, 2013. Oh Yeah, Blogs. Dragon Milk Stout. My poor, sad, neglected blog. Grin and Beer It? Apprently Lagunita's are troublemakers).
