Beer Glasses

Tomorrow will mark the one year anniversary of this blog. The day I started it, I was sitting alone in my apartment drinking Sierra Nevada Celebration ale. I was pretty deep in and I got the idea to do a blog about beer. Really it was just a whim, but I'm glad that I did it. I've enjoyed sharing my beer related experiences with you. Over the next year, I will be attempting to bring out more material and hopefully be more consistent with my posting.

To mark my one year mark I am unveiling the new name of the blog: Beer Glasses. Thanks to my friend Jim Cottage for the kick ass logos. Check him out his work here. Beer blog is too bland and Beer Glasses fits the style of the blog better. Be sure to follow me on Twitter. The link is in the top right corner of the blog. Right now, I have 0 followers. Let's work on that.

Over the next couple days, I will be posting a series of anniversary related posts where I dip into my private reserves and drink some of that top shelf ish. Stay tuned. Thanks for reading and cheers.

F the man




So, work has been kicking my ass up and down the street lately, leaving me tired and unmotivated when back at homebase. I do plan to continue posting here when I get a spare second, or more then one day off a week. Any ways. I just got a shipment of beer from my uncle who lives in Oakland. What a dude. Of particular interest is the much sought after Sierra Nevada 30th anniversary stout. I looked all over NJ for this bad boy. The dudes at Oak Tree in South Plainfield said they probably weren't gonna get it, but then I called back on Saturday and they said they had it for like a hot minute. Whatever. I am going to savour this bad beast. It may take me an entire evening to drink it. Also really psyched about Russian River's Pliny the Elder. A lot of dudes on the east coast talk about this beer. It's fairly easy to acquire out west, but not so much here. I was talking to this homebrewer who said he was going to do a clone recipe having never had the real deal. Just because it ain't over here. Well now I got me some. I'll post reviews once I indulge, but I know these brews are going to be top shelf. Incidentally they are now chilling on the top shelf.
