    Socrates once said, “The unexamined life is not worth living.” While this might be a bit extreme, it is a philosophy that can be applied to anything; even beer. It’s the working man’s beverage and while the idea that few things are more refreshing than an icy cold beer after mowing the lawn, we are in living in the middle of a craft beer boom. Beers are becoming more and more complex, new and traditional styles are pushing the boundaries of what we know beer to be. If you have missed the craft beer wave that is sweeping our nation and the world, allow me this opportunity to teach you how to taste beer and how to talk knowledgeably about it.

  • Brew’s of the Bracket: Boulevard Brewing Co. in Kansas City, MI

    boulevard

    A mainstay of Kansas City beer culture, Boulevard Brewing Co. was founded in 1989—since then, it has become one of the regions largest brewers while retaining craft techniques. Boulevard is also a leader in sustainability, becoming a “zero landfill” company in 2010 complete with a garden roof. If there’s one brewery that the rest of the midwestern craft community looks up to, Boulevard is it. The original brewhouse is a turn-of-the-century brick building that sits next to the modern facility, a sustainably designed and forward-thinking three story building. The public tour is a 45-minute rundown and tasting that provides a good introduction, but you’d do well to sign up for the “unfiltered tour.” Limited to 15 people, the experience takes you behind the scenes into normally off-limits areas. It also concludes with a more expansive tasting, which is (let’s face it) the reason you came in the first place. Boulevard is best known for their Unfiltered Wheat, an easy session beer that goes down well with Kansas City BBQ. The brewery has also gained a reputation for the Smokestack Series, which includes the year-round Double-Wide I.P.A., The Sixth Glass, Long Strange Tripel and Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale.

    Austin Beerworks (3009 Industrial Terrace Austin, TX) is barely a year old, but has already become a go-to source for craft beers in the Texas city. The cans are sharply designed and the styles are classic, pretty much what you would expect from a forward-thinking Austin-based company. In the interest of quality and ecology, the brewery doesn’t bottle their beer—as they are happy to explain, “Cans get cold faster and the beer stays gooder longer.” The motley team at Austin Beerworks ranges from a Flying Dog alum to a corporate financier—not a bad combination for recession-era brewer. glennaa Visiting Austin Beerworks isn’t the easiest thing in the world—they often post tour times, but by no means are the hours regular. That said, it’s well worth it. The brewery is also known to attend local festivals, something that Austin has in excess. The names—Fire Eagle, Black Thunder, Pearl-Snap and Peacemaker—sound more like Charlton Heston’s gun collection than a selection of ales and lagers, but we won’t hold that against them. The pale ale and IPA are well-loved American classics, and we recommend more adventurous drinkers look into Austin Beerworks’ German-style schwartzbier, which is something like the bastard child of a stout and a more »

Hand-forged in the Toyama region of Japan (where they’ve been casting iron for over 400 years), this pair of black enameled pincers looks and feels quite real – but it’s a bottle opener. Because the only thing you should be pincering anyways is a bottle of beer. -Cool Material $20.95 The Cast Iron Pincer Bottle Opener ________________________________________________________________________ Using the right tool for the right job significantly reduces the time it takes to complete a project. In turn, the time from work to beer is also decreased. Pick up a Cast Iron Hammer Bottle Opener and skip right to the fun stuff. Hand-forged in the Toyama region of Japan (famous for their cast iron work for the last 400 years), this cast iron bottle opener is coated in a black lacquer glaze to prevent rust.   $20.95 Cast Iron Hammer Bottle Opener
