So, as I mentioned in my last post, I’m working for Bay Cannon Beer Company in Tampa (specifically West Tampa). So, full disclaimer, even though I do work for this brewery, I’m not being paid nor have I been asked to write this. These opinions are simply my own. I think I’ll go into the […]
As you know, I’m a big fan of Calusa. They do a lot with their brown ale program, including barrel aging Dissonance, an Imperial Breakfast Brown Ale treated with whole-bean coffee and cinnamon aged in oak bourbon barrels. So, when I heard they had released a new barrel aged brown, I was intrigued to check […]
Four Fathers Brewing is located in Valparaiso, IN. This is the first beer I’ve had from this brewery, and thanks to Tavour for this one. Four Fathers was started by a husband and wife team, which is awesome. I love these stories where a couple had a dream, planned and eventually made it happen. It’s […]
I love chocolate. So, anytime I get to try a beer that proclaims to simulate chocolate, then I immediately say yes. I recently wrote a post about the Angry Chair Chocolate Cupcake Stout. I felt like it was basically the liquid version of my father-in-law’s chocolate cake, which is absolutely amazing. It was really spot […]
It’s early January as I write this, and I’m finally living in Tampa full time. I sold my house in southern Illinois and was allowed to come to Tampa a week early after training my replacement at my job. Right now, as I write this, I’m binge watching Travelers on Netflix with my awesome wife […]
I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. They’re simple to make and so darn tasty! I’m a sucker for anything peanut butter, like Moon Butter by Angry Chair Brewing…so good! I used to be a fan of Absence of Light by 4 Hands Brewing, another peanut butter stout. It tasted like a Nutty Bar. But […]
The first time I had this beer was this past January at the Maple Bacon Coffee Porter Festival. I had a lot of samples that day, and I remember loving this beer and thinking it tasted exactly like french toast. So, after Funky Buddha released it again for this year, I took a drive down […]
I don’t normally drink brown ales because I’ve never really understood brown ales. You know, I always figured if I wanted something dark I would just go for a stout or a porter. Go big or go home. Generally, my thinking was that if I was drinking a brown ale I was cheating myself a […]
Driving sucks. I hate it. Obviously when you drive 16 hours to your new home because you’re too cheap to hire a moving company, well, I gotta deal with it but I don’t have to like it. In January my wife and I drove 19 hours to Funky Buddha for the Maple Bacon Coffee Porter […]
