In honor of Chinese New Year I had decided to buy some Chinese beers to blog about, so over the weekend I bought a Harbin and a Tsing tao, from the fourth and first largest breweries in China, respectively. Although I’ve only tried the Harbin, both beers are lagers in the German style, as is […]
Thankfully, I’m not a particularly frequent flyer, and when I do fly I tend to go to the same few airports.

Straub’s brewery of St Mary’s, PA will be brewing the officlal Groundhog brew for Groundhog Day in Punxsutawney, PA again this year.
