Posted by on Thursday, December 17, 2009 in - 1 comment
Jon Abernathy of The Brew Site asked me to join in and place one beer on his Advent calendar this Christmas season. Well, as Jon is I think the only pure beer blogger who may well have been posting longer than I have who am I to say no? I posted my first beer blog post on this stand alone beer … read more »
Ron's Food and Beer Christmas Pairing
Posted by on Wednesday, December 16, 2009 in - leave a comment
I love Ron Pattinson's writing. There is something so mid-1700's about it. Vague trembling scientific examinations, untrod paths of first person observations, the search for the ah-ha moment even with the odd reference to the era of A-Ha. And then there are the personal reflections, philosophical …

If I could do an ABC Wide World of Sports 1970s video retrospective on the man's career to date I would. Brown wins! Pete Brown wins!!!

This 2009 Yuletide Beer Photo Extravaganza and Gift-a-thon is a little different. It's a little quieter than recent years. It's a little lonely. I was wondering why that was so I wrote a poem to express myself in the style of a certain salty 1800s epic: • The Rime of the Ancient Beer Blogger …

I got a great gift in the mail today. Copy 8 of 10 of Ron Pattinson's new book, WAR! He wrote about the book's release this very morning from his home in The Netherlands and by suppertime a copy was in my mailbox here in Canada. Compiling his studies to date on the years of World War I and World …

It is ad renewal time at A Good Beer Blog. You will have noticed some tasteful and subdued notices scattered to the left, quietly doing their job and helping the beer blog do its business. Emails are being sent out to those needing to update their account to keep the bots happy. They generally hum …

This month's edition of The Session is about beer to the east. I had worried for a while about making sure I had the right be, the most easterly. But to heck with that. I am going to write about my entire relationship with the nation to my east, the U.S.A. • I have to confess something - I buy …

Don't forget that tomorrow is the thirty-second edition of The Session. This month is being hosted at Girl Likes Beer and we are supposed to pick a beer from the nation to the east. As you can see, the USA is east of me and I am trying to figure out the most nearly east brewery to me that I have … read more »
Does Reading About Beer Fill Your Workday?

You know, I have to admit that I rarely think of you in all this blogging stuff. I know. It is unkind and likely unwise. You are, after all, the thing that keeps the fire burning within the stats furnace and fills the comments box. But I've noticed something that you might see in the pattern above …
The Baby May Be Up - But Is The Idea Any Good?
Posted by on Wednesday, September 23, 2009 in - leave a comment
Up in the middle of the night with little kids, something I seem to have been experiencing for about two decades now, is a thing rife with dangers. What ought to be the time of nightmares and things that go bump becomes the moment when you think you have crystallized an idea which, in the light of …
