The Craft Beer movement is certainly bringing out some very creative thinking - very refreshing!

CRAFT BEER BUS Take a look at this from Dogfish Head: http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/capitalbusiness/dogfish-head-turns-students-beer-bus-idea-into-reality/2013/11/01/24aa245e-2d2e-11e3-8ade-a1f23cda135e_story.html Would look good outside the Amex, although the cheap lager swilling...

To avoid the expense and traffic which can get bad, suggest: From JFK: Take AirTrain from the terminal to Jamaica and transfer to the LIRR (Long Island Rail Road) for a quick transfer to Penn Station. Can also take the 'E' train subway from Jamaica, cheaper but slower. Another option is to take...

Another way to get to the Bronx - limited stations though, is Metro North from Grand Central. I think there is a station a few blocks north of Arthur Avenue. Metro North is also a nifty and quick way to get to 125th Street in Harlem - in fact could combine the two quite easily. Of course another...

Cool. Punktoberfest looked interesting! http://www.thebronxbrewery.com/events/punktoberfest-great-south-bay-brewery Doesn't distribute to Virginia so will have to await my next trip up I-95...

Well sad news to report - I didn't make it the Moth, had to settle for a few bottles of Shiner Bock in the hotel which wasn't what I was hoping for. Still I expect to be back there before long, so hopefully better luck then.

The Bronx is a much overlooked borough, mainly I think because of it's reputation for crime. However the Bronx is the home of NYC's zoo, a walk along Grand Concourse is quite interesting, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Concourse_(Bronx) There are some great, authentic NYC style Italian...

Craft is running away with it.

Business brings me to Dallas, Tx for the next couple of days so I'm curious to check out the local craft beer scene. I will most likely try and head out to the 'Meddlesome Moth' tonight as it seems to have a great range of local, nationa,l and international crafts on tap and in the bottle...

That is interesting as I thought BeIn weren't taking the Championship this season. Good job I forgot to cancel - I get it as an upgrade on FIOS.

I was on that double decker bus on the way back to Lime Street station. To coin a phase, 'it got a bit lively' on the upper deck. Nearly got a good kicking before getting on the bus, got surrounded by scallies, asking 'what's the time' and all that but got rescued by a friendly copper before...

I have become quite a fan of these guys; http://www.dogfishalehouse.com/beers There is plenty of Dogfish to be had from the local outlets round these parts (Virginia), not sure if it gets across the Pond or not. 60 Minute IPA is a classic. The 120 Minute IPA looks somewhat interesting. I...

My office is in central DC, and I frequently visit M Street SE for work, as there are a number of federal government buildings down there, close to the Navy Yard and the Nationals ball park - it's an up and coming part of town, previosuly it was rather desolate and a bit 'off limits' for...

Nice. Good selections and decent selection on tap. I think Victory is from Philly, although can't be certain. I'll be in Sacramento next week so will try out some of Rubicon's favotites: http://www.rubiconbrewing.com/beer-3/retail/

Yeah Southern Tier do a wicked black IPA. These guys just got going in DC, not got the chance to sample yet, but nice web site! http://atlasbrewworks.com/

Here is last weeks selection from my local supermarket in Virginia, by the pint in store, or fill your growler! The DC Brau IPA was the pick of my tastes.

You are right about Virginia/Mid Atlantic region, it is becoming quite an epi center of independent/craft style brewing. Where were you staying, may give a clue as to what you were sampling. By the way I don't think Shock Top and Blue moon really qualify as craft brews, they are produced by the...

Just picked up a 6 - pack of 21st Amendment 'Back in Black' - quite malty it is, but also a good taste of hops Good listing of such beer types here. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/style/175 Lyndhurst 14, have you checked out the craft beer selection downtown in the Whole Foods on the lower east...

I had a very freshing Long Trail Kolsch in my local whole foods last night - hint of citrus to it. Here it is: Its DC beer week so loads of craft beer action all overe town.

An interesting move for both player and club. Our chums on Fox Soccer were going on about at the weekend. More importantly what's going to happen to Warren? Presumably no space on the panel on the revamped Fox Sports 1 or what ever they are calling it. I think they still have the rights to the...
