The night is like poetry. Smooth, connected and alluring in its simplicity. I’m biking back to my apartment from downtown Denver. Specifically, the Star Bar, or, Bad Decision Central as I refer to it. I can only sum up tonight as a night my mom would be proud of. Moderation […]

BnL in Louisville: The Search for Chamber Beers
We were driving with a purpose, but still not really getting anywhere. I was looking at my phone screen. Really concentrating on the blue dot that was us, and why the location I was looking for on that map wasn’t where it said it was in real life. Fucking technology, […]
BnL in Louisville, Part One: Cat or Bag of Trash?
A long, long time ago Sam Sly and Pete M dropped a few shiny dimes on a Kickstarter for everyone’s favorite totally-not-a-metal-band Murder By Death (folk, alt-country/rock…why is this being explained this to you? Fucking Google them). The fundraiser was to finance a new album and some backers received tickets to […]
Colorado Craft Beer Week 2015
Featuring Photography by Peter Strobridge Colorado Craft Beer Week fell on March 21-28 this year.

Ninkasi […]
BnL in Estes Park: Ghosts, Dicks and Murder by Death
For those who have seen “The Shining,” you probably know the iconic final scene with Jack Nicholson frozen solid. A beautiful, cinematic psycho-cicle. Stephen King’s classic horror novel was brought to life beautifully in a hotel located in the pacific northwest. The actual hotel that inspired his novel, on the […]
Sports and Beer
Sports and beer together can create a magical land wherever you are standing. Long ago when I was just a wee lad before I was allowed to imbibe, I noticed my mom yelling obscenities at the big ass console TV during games of all kinds. Oddities like “Tackle that son […]
Pouring Beer in Thundersnow and Lightning
If someone by chance actually follows along with this blog, I try to make a point of saying how much I love pouring at beer festivals. We’re coming up on nearly a year from one that was pretty extreme, and after finding the draft, I had to doctor it up […]

Pliny the Younger: A Tale of Two Tappings
Pliny the Younger (PtY) is an interesting phenomenon to me. There are two general trains of thought: some feel it’s a well marketed over hyped beer while others think it’s one of the best beers in the world. I’m starting to join the camp of the former, but that doesn’t […]
Big Beers, Belgians and Barleywines: The Whole Story
I was approaching the west exit of the Eisenhower tunnel. A massive Dodge that easily stood 18 inches over my S10 had just passed me going about 65 miles per hour. I made the snap decision that he was going to be my shield. We rocket into the daylight out […]
Beer n’ Loathing in Vail: The Big Beers Festival 2015
Photography by Peter Strobridge A few short weekends ago, I made a trip up to Vail, Colorado in search for beers that towered above us patrons. Two story tall beers and giant barrels the size of tree trunks. It was the Big Beers, Belgians and Barleywines festival. They happened to […]

How I Managed to Survive a Beer Festival
written by Michael Hylton Ypsilanti may be the poor man’s Ann Arbor, but at the end of July it has its day in the sun — or two beer-filled days in a park with a shitload of drunks. Yes, I’m talking about the Summer Beer Fest in Y-Town. I had missed the […]
Ask Beer n’ Loathing: Number 1!
We’ve exhausted every medium in our quest to shine ultraviolet lights on the misty realm of beer and beer drinkership. Drinkership? Whatever. Anyway, after writing, making videos, and even tossing up the odd infographical how-to, we here at Beer n’ Loathing have finally found ourselves wondering: “I dunno, what about […]
