Here is my final thoughts/links column for 2021, or my first of 2022 depending on how you look at it, it’s been a crazy year and Hoppy Boston has taken a bit of a back seat compared to other parts of life, but I am hoping to come back strong in the new year. Thanks […]
Life has been especially crazy the last couple months, I didn’t even publish a beer thoughts/links article in October and I honestly don’t have a huge amount of content for November (so I’ve added the two months together). The biggest issue is that I have limited time on beer social media, which is where I […]
Another month in the books, another slightly late roundup of all the month’s beer news from me! One new non-review article from me this month: the pandemic has sucked but there is one beer-related silver lining, the proliferation of beer gardens at local breweries. I for one am hoping many of these outdoor spaces stay […]
How is summer over already? I honestly can’t believe that it’s September. It has been a mixed bag this summer, some great vacations, and we’ve been able to do much more than last summer, but the lingering threat of the delta variant has caused the pandemic to drag on and kept things from feeling anything […]

For new followers you can find out a bit more about what to expect in this post. Anyone who uses the NewsBreak app to get their local […]
My beer thoughts column is relatively short this month, between my “real” job and my family commitments I just don’t have a ton of time to hang out on beer social media right now, so it makes it harder to compile these lists. I am hoping things will get back to some state of “normal” […]
The major story in craft beer this month is pretty obvious, the pervasive issues with sexism, assault, and racism in the industry. While this has been a problem for a long time, the discussion on the issues really took off when two different contractors working near the new Notch Brewing site in Brighton made sexist […]
Not much of a preamble this month, just plugging away and getting through another month of this pandemic. The good news is that I got my second shot this weekend, my wife gets hers next week, most of my family, friends and co-workers are either fully vaccinated or well on their way. If you are […]
Another crazy month is COVID-land, and while there appears to be a light at the end of the tunnel, I imagine I am not the only one who is completely burned out. My time on beer social media has declined a bit, but I still managed to put together a thoughts/links article for March. As […]
My beer thoughts and links for February is a little late (obviously), these articles take some time to put together and I am struggling to find time in my schedule for much of anything right now. This article is still a monthly priority though, so I will find a way to keep getting it done, […]
