May and Moving

Phew, its been a while and moving is not fun. Anyways I'm at my new place now and the internet is up and running. Expect more posting from now on after the big absence. Scored some Nogne-O sunturnbrew lately, seems like a great addition to the cellar, and I'll be going on vacation soon. But i'm going to try and get this baby running again.

Really good night for Williamsburg beer geeks

If you live in Williamsburg and love craft beer, well ladies and gentlemen you are in luck! Tonight at Barcade they are having Slyfox vs Southampton night. Two kind of eh breweries, (Slyfox i'm staring at you). Anwyays, despite that fact, there will be some rare beers out there for your enjoyment, particularly Southampton Russian Imperial Stout on tap, one of their rarest and highest rated offerings. When you are done at Barcade getting your dark brew on. Move on to Spuyten Duyvil as they are having a hop related fest featuring many of your favorite gray market brands -- including Founders' Double Trouble and Voodoo brewed Imperial IPA. Looks like a great night and hope to see you all there. You've been warned...

Beer Trades

I saw a thread yesterday on BA that really excited me. It was from the owner of Rattle N Hum and he was talking about opening his bar up for beer trades one day a month. Pretty exciting news. Especially if you are a big fan of trading like me. I'll definitely keep my eye on this one to see how it develops, but it looks like a great opportunity to find some new beers, without dealing with the cost of shipping.
