Cleaning Up for the Weekend

It’s been a while since we posted anything around here. Let’s do some picking up.

Guest Writing

So, it’s not like I haven’t been writing – just for some other people. Our friends at Fit Bottomed Eats recently had their first Beer Week, dropping a bit of knowledge on our favorite beverage on their readers. We were asked to write an article, and we delivered two. Because, one round deserves another.

My first piece was on the basics of pairing food with beer. I talk about matching intensities, pairing similar flavors and contrasting flavors, and even threw in a few suggestions based on style. I could have writing another 2,000 words on the subject, but they asked me to keep it short. Or at least shorter.

I also drew up a guide to tasting beer with all five senses. Pop, admire, sniff, sip, feel. Yep, that all five. I drew up a tasting guide that you can print out and use that is very similar to the one that we Beer Scout use in our meetings.
