It's Not All Okay
Every once in a while, someone will leave a comment on a video or post I've made reviewing a beer that sends me off into a rabbit hole of trying to not only answer their query, but diving even deeper because my own obsession becomes more focused. I like to know things, if only for my own edification, especially when it comes to craft beer, something I've spent almost a decade talking about in various forms and ways. I started out as a true acolyte, a deliver that the independently made beer could change the world, that we were better people for supporting it and that the community and industry could work hand in hand in delivering a new way to be inclusive, growing and spreading that love like a well poured pint.

It seems like a high price for a 6.8% IPA, albeit one of superior quality and consistency, always a fine choice and I feel lucky that I can just get one whenever I want. It wasn't that long ago that the only way to get this legendary flagship beer was to have someone mule it back from Ottawa or when it became possible, to do an online delivery order and get it sent right to my front door. So I don't feel

Trains and Beers: Three Irish Cities in One Day By Rail
I’ve always liked trains. This is probably because I grew up in Carlow town right beside the Goods rail siding and I spent many hours watching Goods trains shunting. It was some time later before I developed an interest in craft beer! In Ireland, we have a limited rail network and Inter-city services often […]
