What would you miss? Sober in Craft Beer...
What do you think you'd miss? If they told you that you could never drink again or if you choose to give it up, for whatever reasons you have. What would you miss the most about craft beer in particular? Besides the warm and fuzzy feeling the alcohol gives you, what things do you think would disappear from your life that would leave a gap where your happy place used to be. I have given this a lot of thought since September, obviously my own circumstance and subsequent sober(ish) life caused me to make some radical lifestyle changes that remain ongoing and with various degrees of success. I haven't really been an active participant in a lot of beer events or even going out for a beer with someone in a couple of years, but I did begin to wonder what it would be like for someone who was more involved, more socially connected to the community and all it entails. When I first came back to social media in December, I was overwhelmed with comments and messages, muc

Sober Polk : January Top Ten Non Alcoholic Pints
I've been asked by quite a few folks what my Top 5 or 10 non-alcoholic beers have been so far and since I'm all about listening to the people and spreading the good word about good beer, I figured I should take a little time each month and let you know what tickled my fancy in the previous 30(ish) days. Up first we'll take a look back at the end of 2024 coupled together with January of 2025 so as not to miss some real good things that I poured into my glass prior to deciding I needed to do this little monthly list of pints that excite Ol' Polk. No need to exclude when it's always better to be inclusive...ya know what I mean boo-boo... Digging back into my yearly list of my top ten beers (yes, I am working on The Ten for 2024, I know it's late, but life is kinda fuzzy right now) I'll stick to a few rules for myself while I compile The Five (Plus) each month. A) Only one beer from each brewery. If I really dig more than one, I'll let ya know in the post, but only one

Whiskey Review: Barrell New Year 2025 Bourbon
Introduction Today, we’re joined by our friend Lee Diaz from ReserveBar to dive into Barrell New Year 2025, the latest iteration of Barrell’s annual celebratory bourbon blend. If you’ve followed the podcast for a while, you know that Barrell has long been one of our favorite whiskey blenders, and their New Year releases always showcase their expert blending skills. This year’s batch clocks in at 112.1 proof and includes a mind-blowing 18 different whiskeys from eight states . The final mash bill lands at 75% corn, 20% rye, 4% malted barley, and 1% wheat , officially making this a four-grain bourbon . With so many components in play, the big question is: did Barrell create something cohesive, or does this one get lost in the blend? This review is taken from our episode " Everything Everywhere All At Once / Barrell New Year 2025 Bourbon ." Click the link to listen to this review in audio format.

A Wet January
A solid month of drinking followed by the sketchy post mortem of the best bottles. I’ve relied on my hand written notes, which grow shorter and messier each year. Chardonnay . From fat to thin. . . Martinborough Vineyard Home Block Chardonnay 2017 . 1/3 to 1/2 butterball. Similar in old school emphasis is the Sianpius Tamar Valley 2015 . Another partial butterball, but also a passing and unexpected hint of celery. Forest Hill Block 8 Chardonnay 2016 . Cream, not butter, lovely almond meal texture. Minimal smoulder. Joan Chardonnay 2021 . Bottle pictured above. Adelaide Hills. A mix of 2 clones (one fat - I10V1 and one fit - 96). Peach and flesh, a balance of tightness and generosity. Nectar like. Yabby Lake Chardonnay 2017 . A good nose, stone fruit and almond meal. The most notable thing is the palate profile. A juxtaposition of cream and stone fruit acids. Finally - the Tyrrell’s Vat 47 2022 . Lean and spare, flint and struck match nose. A very tight but fruit
