If you’ve come here from time to time this summer you’ll have noticed we’re gone.  That’s because we were gone.   We spent almost seven weeks researching our next book — a guide to great beer near popular tourist destinations– and just didn’t have the time to keep up with the blog.    But we’re on our way back and creating a series of posts that should allow us to make regular additions even when we’re busy with our “regular lives.”

Watch for the first of the new posts LATER TODAY, September 1 (or maybe tomorrow morning).  Posting a “Beer of the Day” seems almost like shooting fish in a barrel in these times, but we’ll post comments on beers that we think are special and overlooked.   We’ll also post previews of the new book with insights into Athens, Pompei, and Innsbruck and many more.    We’ll still give a tip of the hat to many of the American towns that offer fine beer to the locals and a welcoming experience to the beer voyager.  We focus on our native Mid-Atlantic, but we’ve posted comments on places such as Pittsburg and even as far west as salt Lake City.  Looking for fun beer destinations?  We’ll have ’em.

Please email us with questions, suggestions and critiques.

Cheers!

Bob and Ellie Tupper
