Brewer's Brews

My #beer Cellar!

I haven't Posted a beer review on here for quite some time. I have changed jobs and been really busy with other things so this has kind of fallen to the side.  But don't think I have quit! I have quite the back log coming.  I wanted to show you what I had in my cellar, aging for a special time.  Without Further ado, Here we go!

LeBenedict James is good for one thing, A new #craftbeer

Great Lakes. What A company. Lebron James. What a jerk.  Check out what great lakes did to ease the pain of Lebron Leaving: 

CLEVELAND - UPDATE: According to the brewery's website, there will be more "Quitness" available on Saturday, starting at 11:30 a.m. while supplies last.

A local brewery has sold out of its bitter beer created to help Clevelanders deal with LeBron's choice to leave Northeast Ohio.

Great Lakes Brewing Company announced the release of its latest brew: “Quitness.” The dry hopped India Pale Ale has a notably bitter taste, symbolic of the forgettable ending of James’ era with the Cavaliers, according to the brewery.

The first keg was tapped at 4 p.m. at the company's brewpub in Ohio City, and ran out at about 7 p.m. -- 30 gallons later.

"Connecting to our city, our fans and our community has made Great Lakes Brewing Company what it is today,” the brewery's co-owner Patrick Conway said in a release. “Rest assured Cleveland - GLBC isn't going anywhere and we will continue to win world [beer] championships.”

"Quitness" was supposed to be available at the company’s Brewpub from 4:00 p.m. Wednesday until Saturday, July 17, 2010 (while supplies last), but ran out sooner than expected.

A worker at the brewpub told NewsChannel5 that there is a possibility more Quitness will be available for Saturday.

Solid Brew from a Solid Company: Thirsty Dog Labrador Lager

I Picked this up at my Local (Hyde Park Wine & Spirits) a little while ago.  I just couldn't resist the cute dog on the front. (J/K. I have had some of their other beers before and they were pretty solid.)  It is also an Ohio brewery, So I wanted to show them some love.

World Cup of Beer!

Found this article on ESPN It is pretty funny and mixes two of my loves: beer and soccer!

As 32 countries gather to compete for the World Cup, Page 2 thought we'd arrange a concurrent side tournament involving the month's other highly sought-after gold standard … beer.

Drink up the action of Page 2's ongoing 2010 World Cup of Beer. Share your thoughts on our picks in the comments section below, especially if you feel there are any discrepancies brewing.

(Insert Cheeky Title Here): Avery DuganA IPA

First Off I want to apologize for not posting anything for over a week.  I have been busy completeing my capstone project and my master's degree and have not had a chance to blog.  My boy Ginn Hooked me up again. It seems to be a re-occurring theme to this blog. Enough Chatting, let's get to the beer (an excellent one I might add).
