Beer Menus

I still think my website is too cluttered. So I appreciate the spare and straightforward and BeerMenus does it.

This is a really great resource and paired with Taplister and the wonderful FoodGPS beer blast, there is no excuse to not know what is on tap. Check them all out.

Beer Blog of the Month – The Drunken Polack

I have been slack in recommending other beer blogs lately. But Draft Magazine was running a vote on best beer blogs so it rekindled the fire to let you all know about other cool beer blogs out there.

First up is The Drunken Polack. I go to his site just to check his updated chart of the beer that he has stored. Blows me away everytime.

Up to Date

Disclaimer: I try to keep the snarky rants to myself and focus on the great beer (which there is a lot of!!) But I have to offer up a suggestion to publicans.

Keep the beer list current and change the taps.

I walked into a beer bar and saw the distinctive Green Flash logo on a tap handle but it was a Berliner Weiss from the Bruery pouring from it. Laying aside that I hope the line was cleansed free of the mammoth amount of hops that Green Flash uses (which I like), but why not change out to a Bruery handle or a generic? Is it a time issue? If so, go with the chalkboard ones. Less fuss and lots of chalk dust.

I also make a plea here for an updated beer list. It doesn’t need to be fancy. The Verdugo and Blue Palms have great beer menus. One large page or two smaller ones, I don’t care. Which beer to choose should be difficult because of the well curated kegs not because I have to figure out whats pouring.

Thanks for listening.
