I must apologize to the Beer North faithful for the past few days as I have NO excuse for not writing. Not sure what my deal is, other than Monday I had nothing unique to share due to the fact I hadn’t made the time to shop for interesting beers. Then Tuesday came and I hadn’t thought about a subject to captivate the nation. Alright enough whining, time to get back on the horse that bucked you OFF and share some beer news with the faithful!
