Beer Trips
Baptized: Zwanze Day 2011
My recap of a palate-expanding roadtrip to Louisville, Ky., to celebrate the Sept. 17 worldwide release of Cantillon’s Zwanze 2011. I experienced Cantillon communion at Holy Grale, and I’m a believer.
The Porch: Key West’s Welcoming Craft Beer Haunt
Key West residents Chris Shultz, Keith St. Peter and Jamille Cucci have played a key role in a recent surge in craft beer popularity on the Florida island. The trio’s 8-month-old bar boasts 12 taps and a large selection of bottles in addition to a sizable wine selection. Finally, Key West has a legitimate craft beer bar.
Four Bourbon County Vanillas and a Funeral
I’ve got to just come right out and say it: 2010 has been a really shitty year.
