Is it that good?
I subscribed to BeerAdvocate mag just before Christmas.. it's a pretty interesting read...
Don't know if I have time for 2 magazines though - still haven't finished the Jan issue of BA and my Feb issue turned up yesterday... A Clash of Kings has been taking up all my reading time lately...
maybe you could find DRAFT at barnes and noble or whatever and compare the two. DRAFT does a lot of beer related food and travel, too.If I had known then what I know now...

I brew my own beer, it's pretty much the only beer I drink now. That's about as "craft beer" as you can get.Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?0

Oh and we had a bottle of the Rogue Voodoo Doughnut last nght...it is definitely something to try so you can say you've had bacon beer. Strong maple flavor in the beginning but a definite bacon flavor on the back end. Not bad but not something i would be interested in sitting and drinking a whole bottle of by myselfAll I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

only drawback for me is that 90% of the beers are impossible to find in Salt Lake except for at one bar. I need to make a road trip back down to Vegas

I've mentioned here before how we get a very limited selection in Mizzip due to the 5.9% ABV limit and I've been browsing around the net a lot lately on beer related topics/laws/etc and I've become somewhat confused. The state's department of revenue site plainly says alcohol may not be shipped directly to individuals in the state, however, I've seen several online beer/wine stores, several of which say they cannot ship here and several of which say they can. Possibly someone with a bit more knowledge on such things could enlighten me?All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Right, it's a definite no-no to ship USPS. It's just confusing to me that the online stores list the states they are capable of shipping to. It doesn't give the impression that they pick and choose which ones they will and won't ship to but rather that they are legally sound in doing so. Oh well...shipping is expensive but I'll be getting some tasties I otherwise would not be able to sampleAll I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Wow! A growler store...does this mean you can go in with a jug and leave with a different draft to drink that night? We have nothing like that in Alberta (Canada sucks sometimes!) There is on brewpub in Banff that will fill up a growler, and I know of some places in Vancouver that fill growlers with their own brews, but I don't even know if it would be legal to do such a set up here. If it was I think I would quit my current line of work and run a Growler Store.0 -
