Figaro
We spent some time recently in Phoenix visiting family. I usually visit a liquor store or two trying to track down something unique. Usually this is very unsuccessful. Phoenix doesn't get great distribution. This appears to be changing or at…
Blood of the Unicorn Hoppy Red Ale
Let's be honest, creative artwork does nothing but help when choosing a new beer to try. Add to that the fact that Scott reviewed another beer from Pipeworks Brewing (Ninja vs Unicorn) a few months back and well, it seemed…
Three Floyds Dark Lord
This beer is most simply obtained by trading for it. The more complicated approach involves yelling at a computer, a pilgrimage, hypothermia, and a hangover. The more complicated approach is far more fun though. This beer spawns from a beer…

Sante Adairius Rustic Ales Westly
I had to say I was pretty excited for this beer as I really enjoy it’s base beer- West Ashley. Westly is an American wild ale that is aged twice as long in the barrel and on twice as many…
4 Hands Brewing Co. Contact High
The Contact High from 4 Hands Brewery is another tasty drink on the lighter side of beer. This smooth drinker pours pale gold and crystal clear with a foamy fast moving white head. Zesty citric and bitter hop flavors swirl…
