The Weekly Pint

I promised cocktails, so we’re going to drink cocktails. I didn’t promise that I’d find this week’s cocktail by any means more than randomly flipping through a cocktail book and picking one that...

This week’s episode is about ‘Small Beers’ and their growth. It’s not just small format servings, though… breweries are leaning hard into lower ABV beers that meet drinkers where they are...

I’m not one to pay attention to what other people do to influence what I’m drinking – but the recent annoucement of Cincinnati’s ‘HighBall’ in OTR got me wondering if this is a sign...

This time of year feels like it was MADE for drinking something tasty. So what type of gnome would I be if I DIDN’T have something? I continue my quest through rum with a little taste of some Rhum Agricole in the...

With a bunch of fun new products being announced by local places this week, we have plenty to talk about on tonight’s episode of ‘The Show That Isn’t A Show” – fueled by a mystery beer pick...

This week is one of those weeks where this show allows me the chance to unload a bit. I’ve been feeling a little “put off” by the lack of care that has been put into too many beers these days, and over...

I’ll admit that the last month has been an adjustment for me, schedule-wise – but that doesn’t mean that I’m not still paying attention to what’s going on in the Cincinnati drinks scene...

I think we might be distant cousins, Gnomes and Leprechauns… it would at least explain the affinity that I have for the drinking holiday a little bit more. As we head into “Paddy’s Day Week” here...

I don’t know if it’s even considered big beer news, but it sounds like BrewDog might be broken up and sold, which gives you a chance to own your own evil empire if you’re in the market for it! We talk...

It sometimes feels like the news likes to go after craft beer; it also sometimes seems like people are looking at certain breweries over others. I’m here to ask why? I’m also here to explore how much of the...

When you’re putting out as much content as I do, from time to time, there are places that ask me not to talk about things. Sometimes they ask me to change stuff that I already wrote about, too. That’s the...

It’s not that I don’t like winter, but when it drags on like this, I just sort of get “done” with it. That’s where I’m at right now. I’m done with winter. It doesn’t help...

There is a LOT of snow on the ground, and when you factor in the fact that I missed out on recording an episode of the show last week, AND the fact that I’m stuck in the house – well… we should make a...

Let the mixed messages to consumers continue. It feels like we’re in the middle of a battle between drinkers and non-drinkers, and most “normal folks” aren’t even paying attention. It feels like...

Is craft beer in danger? Is it doomed to failure? I suppose that depends on who you ask, or what articles you have been reading, but I think it’s a complicated answer. This week’s episode is a bit of a rant...
