As one chapter of life comes to an end and the next begins, it’s only fitting to have a send-off celebration that everyone will remember.

We can't think of a better way to fix this problem ..read more

Avid beer lover and previous software developer Philip Brandes has, what many would call, a well-reasoned philosophy on beer: you should drink them fast and you drink them cold. Anyone who’s ever had a beer can agree. Yet, around 2014, Brandes noticed many breweries were amping-up their alcohol content and creating boozier and boozier brews. Beers were quickly turning into cocktails, and no longer could you enjoy a few after a long day.  “You’re drunk after a sip or two,” Brandes said. “Unfortunately, my friend who really loved craft beer developed a problem and got to a place where his f ..read more

If you asked the average guy to choose between his dog and his beer, he’d probably be hard-pressed to give you an answer. Although we consider craft beer to be one of life's greatest pleasures, ultimately, dogs deserve the title of "Man's best friend." The impact that our four-legged friends have on us is more profound than many people realize, and programs like K9s for Warriors are a testament to that. K9s for Warriors Rescues Dogs too, In Turn, Rescue Veterans. If you aren’t familiar, K9s for Warriors is the nation's largest veterans service organization where disabled American heroes are gi ..read more

Who would have thought that an alcohol-free bar could ever become a thing? Had you told this to someone 20 years back, they would've thought you were crazy. But turns out alcohol is not the key ingredient for having fun after all.  It seems absurd to think that alcohol-free bars are becoming more and more popular, but the idea is not really that new. What is new, however, are the reasons for this sobriety. As early as the 19th century and even the start of the 20th century, the so-called temperance movement (a social movement against alcohol consumption) led to the opening of several alco ..read more

When carefully crafted, non-alcoholic beer can have all the rich, full-bodied flavors and velvety mouthfeel of the real thing.
