Now it starts.

Hello. Welcome. Bienvenida. Benvida. Guten tag, willkommen. Make yourself comfortable, with luck you'll be here a while. This little slice of digital real estate is my first public foray into writing something for a wide audience. Preferably, an audience that's over 21. Because this will be exactly what it says at the top of the page, anything and everything I can think of about beer. I'm a beer aficionado, especially of craft beers, and it's my drink of choice when available for dinner, parties, dinner parties, or even just to unwind after a long ass day. I've sampled a lot of different brands and types, visited a few breweries around the country, all just for fun. That's what this blog is going to be, fun! It's going to be a rough, subjective, totally unprofessional expression of the fun I have with beer. And it'll be a learning experience too, if I'm going to write about what I know then I should know what I'm writing about, yeah? I've been drinking the stuff for years now, and I'm a rank amateur when it comes to things like hoppiness and cold filtering, what the differences are between pale ales and lagers, and all the other nooks and crannies to do with beer because I don't know shit about it. I know I like it, and I want to know more. And I want to talk all about it. What I'm drinking, breweries I've toured or want to tour, friends that brew their own, memories of beers past. Anything that I think would make for an enjoyable read, whether the voice is clinical, academic, nostalgic, laymen's terms, or wooooooo I'm drinkin! It'll be fun! It'll be funny. It'll be foamy. So here we are.

Now then, time to sit back and see what's on tap next.
