\"Happy<\/p>\n

We drove to central New Mexico this past weekend, so this will be brief. We hung out with family and friends, including some really into holiday decorations. The photo above is a single moment in the midst of a two-minute plus light show. Spectacular and worth the 450-mile drive (one way).<\/p>\n

During the drive I thought a bit about how Alan McLeod’s Thursday Beer News Notes<\/a> and how styles, style guidelines, competitions and ways consumers\/writers choose to describe beer influence each other. Very complicated<\/em>. None of this came up in conversations we had at the four breweries we visited, nor in the various conversations I was able to eavesdrop on. People were there because of beer, but not to talk about beer.<\/p>\n

A few other links:<\/p>\n

HASHTAG SNOW PICS<\/strong>
\nBring back the Christmas photo contest. New Belgium is ready.<\/a><\/p>\n

MIGHTY FINE<\/strong>
\nWhat do they mean when they say fine wine?<\/a> \u201cIt defines itself by having an active secondary market.\u201d Beer-related lessons here?<\/p>\n

AND MIGHTY EXPENSIVE<\/strong>
\nInvesting in wine is for fools and the uber-rich.<\/a> Another beer-relevant story.<\/p>\n

UNANSWERED QUESTIONS <\/strong>
\nAre wineries and distilleries also being censored<\/a> in Instagram? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
