Saint Arnold Divine Reserve 15 and Bishop’s Barrel 8
This review was supposed to go up yesterday, but things happened and it didn’t. Sorry about that. We’ve all pretty much moved on from the Super Bowl by now I believe, but those were some of most depressing ads ever. Yes, I’m looking at you Nationwide. Lots of controversy in the craft beer community over the… → Read More
Ads and Such (or Why Am I Seeing Ads?)
A little housekeeping this morning. Undoubtedly you’ve already noticed an ad either above the article or at the top right corner. After long deliberations on how best to proceed, I think I’ve come up with a solution for ads that’s not too intrusive and keeps the ads relevant rather than whatever random ad Google might… → Read More
Boulevard Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale
Happy New Year! Not too long ago Disney updated its standard beer menu. We’ve mentioned it on social media and updated our beer list with the new information (check out a page like Chef Mickey’s to see the new standard menu), but we haven’t really looked at the new beers yet. Some, like Lagunitas IPA,… → Read More
Einstök Icelandic Doppelbock
What’s this? Jenn is actually posting a Disney beer review??? I know, I’m just about as shocked as all of you guys are. I keep saying I need to post more on here (as I’m sure Scott is tired of hearing as well) but it’s true. So anyways, while in Hollywood Studios two weeks ago,… → Read More
App Review: Next Glass
It’s been a while since we’ve done an app review. However, the app Next Glass recently caught my attention because it claims it will be able to tell you if you’ll like a beer or wine before you buy it. Next Glass does this by examining the chemistry of the beer. The first thing it has… → Read More
Raglan Road Beer Menu Update!
We don’t write an article every time we update the beer lists. The truth is they’re updated whenever we either see changes or get information on changes as best we can. However, when a location makes big improvements for the better, it’s important to point it out. The menu to the right is the new beer… → Read More
2014 Pumpkin Beer Recap
I’ve had several pumpkin beers this fall. Instead of writing a bunch of articles on them, I’m going do a recap instead to clear the slate a bit as the holiday beers start to appear in stores (Brown Shugga’, I’m waiting for you). Southern Tier Warlock Warlock is the imperial stout version of Southern Tier’s Pumking,… → Read More

Saint Arnold Brewery Tour
You may have been expecting the next installment of my visit to The Avenue in New Orleans, but I’ll get back to that soon. On Saturday I visited Saint Arnold Brewing Company for my birthday; it’s just north of downtown Houston and is located at 2000 Lyons Ave. Saint Arnold hosts tours every day except… → Read More
Delirium Tremens
Another House of Brews winner.. when the gang saw that they had Delirium Tremens we each quickly ordered a bottle. How can we say no to a beer that was rated the best beer multiple times?? Definitely didn’t disappoint. Could drink this every single day. Great combination of fruits and spices and was very smooth… → Read More
Blanche de Bruxelles
One of my new favorite beers. You surprised that it’s another wheat beer? Yea, such a surprise right there! Plus the cute tap doesn’t hurt. Makes us laugh each time. The bartenders at this particular bar made the little statue a diaper b/c they were tired or staring at his nakedness. … → Read More
Ayinger Oktober Fest-Märzen
Saw this in the refrigerator at Total Wine and was really hoping it would taste similar to Sam Adams Oktoberfest. I was let down. This isn’t one of my favorites.
Samuel Adams Griffin’s Bow
Samuel Adams Griffin’s Bow is part of a series of limited release beers from the Boston Beer Company. The local grocery store had a bunch of the limited release beers in stock so I picked a couple up. Griffin’s Bow is an oaked blonde barleywine. Toasted oak was put into the beer when it aged… → Read More
Presenting the 2015 Disney Beer Tournament Champion!
It’s been two weeks since we started the 2015 Disney Beer Tournament and we have a champion! A few comments from Twitter: .@beersandears as much as I enjoy Chimay Blue, I'm pulling for DFH90. They're my kind of people. http://t.co/UuSg7I72HM #DisneyBeer2015 — Jason Heger (@Nissan_Rogue_sq) April 2, 2015 Me: I wish there was a beer… → Read More
Three Floyds – Pride & Joy Mild Ale
Usually I don’t go for a hoppy beer….but this is a decent ale from Indiana brewer Three Floyds.
crawlDisney: The Friendship Pub Crawl
Previously on crawlDisney we looked at Drinking Around the World at Epcot, where in just a short walk it’s possible to try beers from thirteen different countries. Today’s edition of Beer Tours is just a short walk away from World Showcase. Just outside Epcot’s International Gateway are five resorts lining the shores of Crescent Lake. Inside… → Read More
Dos Equis Ambar
“…a rich, robust flavored beer with the smooth drinkability of a classic dark-style lager.” Um, no. Okay, fine, I’ll give the marketing person who wrote that line on Dos Equis Ambar’s back label credit for the smooth drinkability. It’s smooth alright (is it possible to be too smooth?), because it’s very easy to drink. On… → Read More
