I don’t know that I would call myself a “foodie,” but maybe I am. It is thrilling to me to try special and or novel foods and beverages. When it comes to beer, I want to experience it fully. As with everything, moderation is important, so striving to experience food or drink with as many of your senses as possible is key in fully savoring whatever it is that you are treating yourself to. This is how I try to experience a craft beer, and I would encourage you to do the same!

I have been guilty of drinking my beer directly from the bottle or can for years. Often it was out of convenience. This summer, I made the switch to pouring my beers into a glass whenever possible -- I can admit when I’ve been wrong, and BOY have I been wrong! Making the effort to drink my beer from a glass has changed my life!
