Sierra Nevada Beer Camp
So, Sierra Nevada is holding a contest for it’s famed Beer Camp. They asked for submissions as to why someone would want to go.
Here is my REPLY
It’s a little over a minute. If you think it’s funny or even just mildly amusing hit the like button for me. It might help me get to summer camp.
Oregon Craft Beer Month – Search Party travel
I admit, upfront, that I have been slow in adding PDF’s to the travel section of the website. My bad.
But since it is Oregon Craft Beer month, the time is ripe to reinvigorate this portion of the site. So here you go! Part one of four of my suggestions of where to go in Portland.
Beer Books
A little website housekeeping here. I have made a literary addition to the Search Party Favorites tab.
Instead of trying to link up each separate beer book, I piggybacked on Amazon’s program. So you can see my what beer books are on my shelf.
Here is what I drank on my birthday!
True Irish Stout!
The Carlow Brewing Company also brews a wheat beer and an Irish Red. You usually see it in the weeks leading up to St. Patricks Day then it disappears.
Be my beer Facebook friend
If you click <
“></, you will be magically whisked to the world of Facebook and you can click another box to become a fan of the Beer Search Party where you will get breaking news, ephemera and updates on what I am drinking or where I am going to drink.
Coming Soon
Starting on the 15th of this month, all posts will cover the 1st LA Beer Week. Reviews of the parties, reviews of the beer, photos and maybe even a little video.
Also, in a week or two, I will make available a Beer Travel Planner for the Northern San Diego area as a sample of what I can do for you. Free is a good price!
Tips for the newbie
I will be attending the Great American Beer Festival for the very first time this year. So if anyone out there on the interwebs has any tips or suggestions or advice. Hit me with it.
And if anyone wants to say hello or talk, I will be at the Rare Beer Event on Friday and if all goes according to plan, at the merchandise table on Saturday. I am really excited to get to know more beer geeks and drink in the atmosphere of this event.
Beer Search Party services
I don’t know what reason brought you to this blog or why you keep coming back but here is one thing that I think will be quite useful..
The Beer Search Party Beer Vacation Planner (BVP).
All you have to do is e-mail me at BeerSearchParty@gmail.com .
Tell me A) where you are going & B) when you are going.
I will give you a list of breweries, beers, bars and restaurants to visit. Along with addresses, phone numbers and hours of operation. As a beer geek, you know this stuff but do you want to do it when you could be drinking beer? It’s called outsourcing and for a limited time it will be free of charge.
Free is a very good price.
