Follow Sean Inman to the best in craft beer
Untappd, your home away from home for ticking has recently released the second in their Next Exit video series. This time the town is Baltimore where I spent some time when I was younger. Hop Culture’s Kenny Gould takes a ride with City Brew Tours to search the city for craft beer.

Episode three – Brooklyn is also available too. Episodes seem to be dropping quicker now.
For September, I will be reviewing two new to me beers from RavenBeer. I finish with hearty ale that tells tales….
For your Poe-ification, here is the website description, “Your first experience with this IPA is the citrus bouquet from its rocky white head. The initial taste is subdued but gradually becomes intense without any harsh bitterness. The Heartier the Better.”
For September, I will be reviewing two new to me beers from RavenBeer. First up is Pendulum Pils….
For your edification, here is their description, “Pendulum Pilsner is a rich velvet smooth, yet clean, dry and crisp pilsner of a pale gold color. The complex mix of hops and malt creates an elegant floral nose and delightful taste that is very drinkable without overwhelming even the most tepid beer drinker. Not overly bitter but just enough of the hop to enjoy their subtle complexities while still enjoying the smooth, and almost sweet taste of the malt.”
One of my stops in life was a stint in Baltimore. And one that I look back on with fondness though I probably didn’t appreciate it enough at the time. Now Baltimore is getting back into the craft brewery game after an absence of a long time.
Baltimore to get its first new brewery in over 30 years
Peabody Heights Brewery might be open as early as May, but breweries always tend to open a little later than scheduled. And, Union Craft Brewing has plans to open in that time window too. Oriole town will be doubly served.
