Find reviews of books on beers, brewpubs and beer; and a few other brewed beverages. Deirdre Cerkanowicz is behind the scenes.

TGIF to all my working friends

I’ve been away a while, but I’m back and preparing for Thanksgiving. What are you doing that day?

Stopped here on the way to and from Lake Havasu. Great food, beer, staff, and atmosphere.
