Wine Glass Beer Reviews

It was Christmas Eve when I opened this hop bomb of a beer. The snow was falling, creating a pure white blanket outside my window as afternoon progressed. Being that it was the time for giving I decided to gift myself with a little holiday beer. The decorative paper...

Firestone Walker … a brewing company out of Paso Robles, CA that until recently hasn’t gotten much play here in Chicago or the Midwest in general. They’ve been around, though, and right now we’re reviewing/celebrating their 14th Anniversary...
