Happy Saturday! You deserve a break after a long week. I found a few interesting articles for you. So, take a break, relax and catch up on what’s happening in the beer world.

Meredith Heil offers a few suggestions in Tasting Table about beers for wine enthusiasts. I’m not so sure about the third suggestion – west coast IPAs for Sauvignon Blanc, but the rest I think are spot on. What do you think?

For me, there is something wonderful about a well-poured beer with a beautiful head. Justin Kennedy asks, “Does Foam Really Matter” in this food52 article.

The Pint Night crew just experienced a great Ommegang night. Beer Pulse offers a press release about the interesting and delightful Ommegang Pale Sour that several of us enjoyed that night.

I really enjoyed a hop-free beer – Posca Rustica. Learn more about these gruit ales.

Finally, a few political beer articles. One is a local article about HB 1283, the other from our Canadian neighbors who want to “Make Beer Great Again.”

Have a great weekend!

Cheers!
