Beer

Beer was the first reason I wanted to start this blog…I love talking about beer and trying different kinds. I have my favorites but I am always open to taste more! This is only the beginning of the list…there will be plenty more so check again soon.

I am also hoping to start a beer of the month with my followers that are interested…I will select a beer to try and then throughout the month people can post their opinion…it will be like a national beer tasting event 🙂 Please let me know if you would enjoy this and also if you are in another state let me know so I can try and find a beer that is distributed in all the states that I have participating beer tasters!
