A beer that would even make a turkey hop (or gobble)for joy

Posted on 06 November 2008 by Zachary Davis

As I recently stepped out of the bar to the freezing cold weather of 2 a.m. Milwaukee, I started to realize that it is almost Thanksgiving. The holidays bring fun times, good food, bloated stomachs and many wonderful things like funny tasting beer. Every year more and more breweries around the country provide [...] Continue Reading

Spotted Cow isn’t all it’s hopped up to be

Posted on 24 September 2008 by Zachary Davis

Sorry folks but Spotted Cow is just not that good. I consider myself to have a very open mind when it comes to people’s taste in beer. Obviously I will never endorse things as crummy as Bud Light, but above that I can at least come to terms with the fact that people like different [...] Continue Reading

Summer Shandy captures the essence of the season

Posted on 10 September 2008 by Remington Tonar

With the arrival of the school year we pause to reflect on our summer experiences. We’re sure to miss the leisure of not having class and the relaxation of a day at the beach but another summer has gone by. As summer yields to fall we must also take a moment to remember Wisconsin’s favorite seasonal brew: Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy. Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: Kaplan Hat Hefeweizen

“Beer is relative,” said the great philosopher. “How so?” asked his disciple. “Because when cold it refreshes; when warm it relaxes; when had as a dessert, it satisfies; when complemented with a flavor similar to what it exhibits, its flavor changes.” The disciple pondered on such a profound statement, and decided to proceed with the [...] Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: The End of the World

Posted on 15 January 2008 by Benjamin Juarez

I understand that there are many brewery traditions all around the world, but I have a feeling that a certain place is neglected when it comes to fine beers. This place is a land known for its forests, beautiful cities and friendly people. This place – Canada! [...] Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: A Beer Brewed with Knowledge is Tasted with Wisdom

Posted on 07 November 2007 by Benjamin Juarez

The simple truth is that I, unlike many of my contemporaries, like my beer brewed by monks in an approximately 150-year-old Belgian monastery. Perhaps it is just my personality that drives toward tradition when it comes to such things as beer or food. Give me something that has its roots deep in success, something that [...] Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: Cerveza Pilsener, a taste of Central America

Posted on 10 October 2007 by Benjamin Juarez

Over 100 years ago, Salvadorian Rafael Meza Ayau started a brewing company by the name of “Rafael Meza Ayau y Cia,” which was later changed to “La Constancia.” From the lines of this investment came El Salvador’s first world-famous beer. The delicate touch of the Salvadorian people created a beer that has been [...] Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: Riverwest Stein Amber Lager

Posted on 29 September 2007 by Benjamin Juarez

When tasting beer, as beer connoisseurs such as myself do, there are some words that come to mind that might sound a little bizarre: malty, hoppy, bold, bitter, strong, smooth, tantalizing, etc. These words help to fuse the taste and feelings that beer can give us. Rarely though, do we speak of places that [...] Continue Reading

Oh, the beers of Summer

Posted on 25 April 2007 by Steve Heiderer

The school year is ending and summer is almost here. There is nothing better than a cold beer on a hot summer night. Unfortunately, many people get stuck in habits and drink the same old thing. Instead of having another Corona, try something else at your next cookout. I have four suggestions: New Glarus Totally [...] Continue Reading

Beyond Busch Light: American Pale Ales

Posted on 27 February 2007 by Steve Heiderer

Hops can be intimidating for beer novices, but these little flowers are responsible for much of the bitterness and aroma in beer. If you are normally a watery macro-brew drinker, you probably are not used to hoppy beers and going from a macro-brewed beer to a very hoppy beer can be difficult for inexperienced taste [...] Continue Reading
