How I Was – How Am I Doing

I have been off Twitter for two plus years at this point, so some things I catch second-hand. Like this question that I saw on the Appellation Beer website.

That is a thinker. All those years ago when I first started in beer, there was a growing number of choices available but it was limited and forcibly local. You had to travel to find the beer two towns over. Now, well, you can sit at home and scroll across a world of beer and a few days later you get a box in the mail.

I believe that beer would seem as much a dark forest as wine does to me now. I would not know where to start and because of that, might not drink as widely as I do, which is saying something considering the preponderance of IPAs I sip.

I would also see it as part of day to day life where before it was way more of a revolutionary cause. The battle has been mostly fought and I would also say mostly won. Even the crappiest bar or smallest grocery store has craft beer inside.

But since I cannot un-live my beer life, it is all guessing but fun guessing.
