[BW] Beer Blog

I’ve been pondering this for quite some time, but I think there’s no better time than now. It is with a heavy heart that I must announce I will no longer be updating this blog.

This has been an incredibly fun project that has reaped rewards I never imagined. However, due to a combination of lack of time, fading interest, and recent health concerns, I can no longer allow myself to leave my readers wondering when the next post will be.

Thank you to everybody who has ever posted a comment, linked to my site, recommended a beer, or even sent a few cold ones my way. I’ll be sure to stay in touch with those of you who visit frequently. In the mean time, enjoy the site for however long I decide to leave it up.

Oh, and Eric, I’m still putting together quite a package for you =)

Thank you again!

As I sit here working between various projects I decided I needed a cold one. Sure I have a few imperial stouts I could pop open, but no. Forget that. I need a cold one.

Enter Surly’s Bitter Brewer. This gem was sent to me by Eric at Bearded Brewing and I was immediately intrigued because it’s a pint-sized can. You know my policy on can beer, so there won’t be any mention of smell or appearance this time around.

The beer itself is exactly what it says it is. A generally inoffensive bitter in a can. I must say, I could easily go through a few of these. It’s even easier because it has a handy wide-mouthed opening.

The only part of this beer I have to disagree with is its tag line, “Beer for a glass, from a can.” No beer from a can should ever be poured in a glass. Ever.

Definitely way better than Flat Tire from a can.
