It’s hard to make lightning strike twice. Actually, it’s hard to make lightning strike at all unless you’ve got a Tesla coil and a generator the size of a Honda. New Albion Ale I had written a wonderful review of the New Albion Ale from New Albion Brewing Company (brewed by Samuel Adams) but […]
By Amanda Resch You might not have noticed yet, but Rhode Island is in the midst of a beer boom. Five new stand-alone breweries have opened this year, bringing the state’s total to seven. One of those new breweries is Bucket Brewery in (where else?) Pawtucket. Founded by close friends Nate Broomfield, Erik Alaksen, T.J. […]
Unless you live under a rock, or don’t drink good beer, or don’t care about local business news, you’ll be surprised to know there’s a new brewery in town! Grey Sail, not to be confused with Grace Ale or Graze Hail, is the new microbrewery on the scene inRhode Island. Whispers have been echoing […]
All right, I’ve got it. It took some time, effort, and a lot of hard work, but I finally managed to get five damn minutes to sit down and have a beer. Oh, and it’s the Sierra Nevada Hoptimum. This brew has taken off just about everywhere I’ve seen it, and I know that because […]
Ivan? I honestly don’t know what’s wrong with me. Maybe it’s because I had an Imperial Pilsner back to back with a Russian Imperial Stout, or maybe it’s because The Hunt for Red October was on, or maybe I’m just stupid, but it’s called VLAD!! It’s the Newport Storm Vlad. That’s the beer I […]
Apparently the Apocalypse has started and the horsemen are named Sandy, Athena, Brutus and … I don’t know, Cindy? Despite the catastrophic weather hitting both coasts in an unprecedented series of weather events, people are trying to put their lives back together. That’s the name of the game, of course. For some of us, that […]

I think it’s safe to say, I need to get out more. With good beer bars popping up like Starbucks, though with significantly less evil and corporate motivations, it’s a terrible shame I only get to visit these great places once in a great while. But every so often, usually when a check comes in […]
So pace yourself and don’t be “that guy” Unlimited Sampling! Those are the two greatest words to hear at a beer festival if you are attending, and the two worst if you are actually working at the event. Even a 2 oz. pour limit becomes essentially meaningless with unlimited sampling, because no matter what you […]
There’s only a few perfect times in one’s life that one can intentionally utter specific sentences in a misleading way and it totally works. For me, one of those times is now: My Wailing Wench is back! Oh how I did miss the Wailing Wench, the Beast Bitter, Wizard’s Winter, and the Dragonslayer Stout! For […]
