Wisconsin was well represented by: Potosi, Sprecher, Lake Front, Milwaukee Brewing Company and Central Waters. There were many local start-ups also, All Syndicate,…

Hoppy beers are good for your bones?

I  found this on Real Age.com, just one more reason to get some hops in your diet!!
Memo to all the guys out there (and the women who love you): Quit walking to the kitchen every time those bone-health commercials come on. (Sally Fields, we love you. Really, we do.) All the talk about osteoporosis is not for women only.

Twelve million men have bones that are getting…

Beer off-flavors 101: The dreaded skunk

Hizzöner Maibock

The maibock compliments well the existing cast of Two Roads beers. As the burgermeister decreed, this is indeed a smooth and delicious beer.  Hizzöner is abundantly tasteful and dangerously quaffable. Indulge judiciously!
