Screaming Into the Void (January 16th, 2018 Edition)

Occasionally punctual, sometimes factual, almost never as funny as he thinks, Tony Budny pens SCREAMING INTO THE VOID and looks at the best in writing and social media conversation around the biggest issues in beer. If you feel something should be included, have a tip, or just want to sound off, feel free to look him up on Twitter @DrinksTheThings or email DCBeer.

I hope everyone is having a good dry January, or, if it may be, a wet one. I know you want a breakdown of all those best of 2017 breakdowns to really get meta on the beers that are the best, so here you go. In a shocking twist, just look at your shelf and find the ones hardest to find and those are probably the best, according to most people.

The Bruery store in Union Market will open January 19. Don
