Or not... Since no one has debated “beer styles” of late why not ask a brewer who “Hmph!”‘s at the word style: Do they spend more time researching the categories at the GABF for their creative entries or do they spend more time creating an invention based on the existing categories.

Or not…

I was just wondering if what we see is what people really care about. Don't use up all the stories. I'm on my way. Jay,

But there is plenty to write about, right? I was just wondering if what we see is what people really care about.

Don’t use up all the stories. I’m on my way.

If it was going to change what I want to buy at Antler's (my local store) or even what I can buy then I'd be interested. I guess the best story for me would be one that amuses me, so don't go for the heavy stuff.

Obviously drinkers get numb (literally) to flavor and need MORE as the evening wears on.

Such as collaborating on a beer, events held at each others breweries, monthly bbqs? I think the real strength of craft beer is the community that exists between the brewers and I'd love to hear more about it!
