Welcome to 2015!
Well, it’s 2015! 2014 was a good year for beer and a good year for Brew in Review. 2014 was our first year, so we don’t have much to compare to, but let’s go through some of the highlights. The Big Trip: Travel to Portland, Oregon and Hawaii In June, we went to Portland for […]
Bridge Road Brewers’ 1000th Batch!
About a week ago, Bridge Road bottled their 100oth batch of beer! Now, that’s not 1000 different kinds of beer (give them time…), it’s 1000 brews done by Bridge Road. For a brewery that started in 2005, that’s over 100 brews per year; about two per week! Master Brewer Ben Kraus said in an article […]

What are you drinking at home?
At home, I typically like to stick with homebrew, that is, when I’m not drinking something to write a review. I’m an avid homebrewer (and also keep track of everything over at We Make Homebrew with Mikey from Beer With Mikey). I would imagine a lot of beer nuts like myself are into the homebrew as […]
