A year after its final pour, the legacy of Cambridge Brewing Company endures through its people, innovation, and a community that chose to go out with grace. My latest for @allaboutbeer with reflections from many members of @CamBrewingCo longtime team. allaboutbeer.com/how-cambridge-…

Trump’s tariffs are impacting our craft breweries — from the beer they brew to the cans they put their beer in. We’re not talking about large multi-national corporations — these are small businesses right here in PA facing rising costs and economic uncertainty.

There’s an in-depth feature in the recent issue of the Whisky & Spirits Journal of Japan about Hitachino Nest’s bar bus and tour. Yes, there’s a bar in the bus, and it takes guests to Hitachino Nest’s various facilities making beer, whisky, and sake.

The 2025 @GABF will look nothing like the previous Great American Beer Festivals. @John_Holl has the scoop @allaboutbeer. allaboutbeer.com/gabf-2025-grea…

On political endorsement wapo.st/3YmeD3T This is cowardice, with democracy as its casualty. @realdonaldtrump will see this as an invitation to further intimidate owner @jeffbezos (and others). Disturbing spinelessness at an institution famed for courage.

Just canceled my longtime subscription to the @washingtonpost. I'm a firm believer in financially supporting independent journalism. But when it abdicates its role and refuses to do its job, for whatever reason, it no longer deserves such support.

Which beer fests still matter these days? Interested in hearing folks from around the US (and beyond).

The 2024 iteration of the @GABF is a disorienting, immersive experience where beer is not the central draw but a companion. The layout is a baffling maze, with each turn offering something new or odd, including pitch darkness. Saw lots of smiling and engaged attendees.

Looking forward to @GABF tomorrow. Here's my latest for @allaboutbeer and some of the beers that will be in my glass during the fest. allaboutbeer.com/sip-the-best-o…

We're headed to @GABF in a few days. Here's what I'll be drinking at the fest. Lemme know your picks. allaboutbeer.com/sip-the-best-o…

The @GABF offers big changes for 2024, including new experience areas. Want to drink a sour beer next to an oompah band or ride a mechanical bull after drinking a Purple Punch with Waka Flocka? 2024 GABF might be for you. All the details @allaboutbeer. allaboutbeer.com/big-changes-at…
