Brewnotes

Over the next few weeks, I’m proud to announce  some exciting changes at Brewnotes.    Brewnotes will be hosting several new columns:

• Prelude – Tracking & reviewing craft beer in the US.   Each installment will highlight one beer and will cover all styles.   Just like a musical prelude, these are beers that may stand on their own or introduce other works.
• Sonata – Reviewing individual beers from abroad, primarily England, Belgium & Germany.   Like a piano sonata, beers from this region are often complex and have many “movements”.   We will focus on the character of the beer from initial impressions, subtleties and to pairing with food.
• Impromptu – Tracking the wines/spirits that we come across from time to time.    We will focus on entries that are “new” to us.    We’ll focus mostly on wine, the occasional bourbon, sometimes scotch and anything else that we encounter.   This special column will only appear from time to time.
• Symphony – Tracking food recipes that complement/pair well with fermentables.    Where it is customary to pair your drink with your meal, we’ll attempt to find something that complements what you are drinking.    This is the big picture.

While many sites/bloggers focus on the drinking scene, we hope to educate and have some fun along the way.    You may not always agree with the assessment but we hope you get something out of anyway.
