It's been a while. Hi. I'm Jacob, and I occasionally write about beer. This is an IPA from pFriem Family Brewers in Hood River, Oregon. I didn't stop at their HQ during my Columbia River road trip. Maybe

The sasquatch is a cultural icon cryptid in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) and mountain west. Some people have signs, statues, or chainsaw-carved stumps depicting this bipedal mystery monster in their yards.

It's been a loooooong time since I last reviewed Stone Brewing Arrogant Bastard Ale. Part of that is because it vanished from local grocery stores. Apparently distribution changed, and this Californian

And once again I am back for another #BeerSaturday. For those who don't know, it's a weekly contest that's in its 354th week. Does that make it the longest running challenge on Hive? I don't know for sure,

Wherein I bloviate about beer and... vampires?

It's been nearly a week since I last posted anything. Since then, I have been subjected to more birthday celebrations. I survived. We played Joking Hazard from the terrible people at Cyanide and Happiness,

October means pumpkin beer is back. Some breweries mix in real pumpkin. Others just toss in some "pumpkin spice" mix. New Belgium went in a completely different direction here, though. Most of

I ran across this picture of a pair of beers I intended to review several weeks ago, but never finished writing the post. I'd review something other than IPAs, but that is what the microbreweries are pumping

I recently cracked into a can of Dogfish Head 90 Minute Imperial IPA, so now it's time to share the experience with you. It's been a while since I last participated in #beersaturday, but this was worthy

Imagine Nutella and Guinness got caught having a scandalous affair, and their bastard offspring was sold on grocery store shelves. This is one magnificent bastard! Meet Chocolate Hazelnut Death from Iron

I need a hug... a Beer Hug! It's also still somewhat damp and cold this spring, so a tropical vacation has a certain allure. This can claims to contain such comfort. Tropical Beer Hug is a double-hopped

It's been a while, but I'm back for more alcohol exploration! Bayern Brewing of Missoula, Montana has been around for 35 years, and Dragon's Breath is their take on a dark hefeweizen. It definitely bears

Here in the Pacific Northwest, the craft brew scene is dominated by a particular style of India Pale Ale, known for strong hops and little malt. Most are not pleasant, in my opinion, with breweries eager
