Well, what about all the funny things you keep posting??
I'l keep posting those...probably, but I need to focus my energies somewhere.
Where?
Well, with one of the greatest inventions of all time:
Behind bread and water, beer is basically the best invention I can think of that involves food or beverage or calories being consumed.
Beer is much more than just gas and water and microbes and flowers and grains coming together to form the trifecta (I know it's more than three thing, back up) of delicious possibilities. Beer has it's own subculture, it has a devoted fan base that tries all of the new and old styles as well as a loyal set of devotees that tries to make new styles and perfect the old ones. All of which are subcategories that I am proud to be involved in.
To this end, I am strating, tomorrow, my new project:
THE YEAR IN BEER!
Basically I'll be blogging one beer a day for 365 days. 365 different beers with my notes and thoughts and things I may have been doing while I was tasting these different concoctions of grains, water, yeast and hops.
Okay, it's not that original, I get it. Plenty of people have done something similar to this. Plenty have made this into more than just a year by turning it into a profession in the beer industry. That's cool. Good for them. I'm not looking to do that.
I just want to learn to take better tasting notes and to try and harness the power of this literary language called English to describe the various flavors and hues and everything in between that jumps to life in my mouth (that sounds dirty) to you, dearest Loyal Reader.
I'll also be open to suggestions from you of beers I should try. Do you have any?
What's your favorite?
So get ready. The first day starts tomorrow and I'll be sure to get that first post out there the very same day...okay. Well, maybe the day after ;)
Cheers, Loyal Reader.
