About Me

I am a music-loving beer geek who is always just one pint shy of the perfect buzz. I drink beer. I talk about beer. I write about beer. Best of all, I now get paid to make beer. I'm satisfyingly childfree, an animal lover and a repository of useless and arcane knowledge. I am straight but not narrow. I fancy myself a linguist, sesquipedalian, grammar Nazi, pedant, curmudgeon, misanthrope, rogue, rebel, rake, raconteur and rapscallion. My weapons of choice are my lightning fast wit, high-powered bullshit detector and mediocrity filter. I have a thicker spine than most humans, not to mention blinding, pasty white skin with frickin' laser beams attached to my head.

    Great guide. I love the Toronado and Magnolia’s. I’ll have to try the Irish Curry House as well. I’d like to make one correction, however. You state that the difference between lagers and ales is the brewing temperatures. Technically, it’s the fermentation time & temperature. Ales are fermented & conditioned at higher temperatures (60-75 F) for a shorter amount of time (typically 10-20 days), while lagers are fermented & conditioned at colder temperatures (35-45 F) for a longer period of time (typically 6 weeks-6 months).

    Thanks for leaving a comment with your favorite words on my guide! I’ll make them pretty and add them now :) P.S. Whenever you add to a community guide, your contribution will appear at the bottom of the second column in the guide. Unfortunately, you don’t have the ability to move it, but the guide author can :)

    Dare I ask, what is your favorite beer? Or favorites?

    Unfortunately, you are correct in that they only distribute to the Southeast. It’s a shame… I went to college in Atlanta and miss Sweetwater dearly. I’m trying hard to get them to increase distribution… They have a bunch of good beers. Everything from an ESB to a pilsner to a Belgian White. Personally, I’m a pale ale fan. They make a great pale ale called 420 and also have a really excellent IPA. If you’re ever in the south, definitely make sure to stop by their brewery for a tour and a tasting…

    I can’t seem to position my text box correctly in this guide, so I’d like to add my contributions via comment. I adore the words callipygian, waft, and areola. Cheers!

    Hey there, To answer your question, no, I’ve never tried Sweetwater Brewery’s offerings. I’ve never been to Georgia, and as far as I know, none of their products are available in California. Enlighten me. What do they have and what of theirs do you like? Cheers!
