I found a few articles I thought you’d enjoy. So, take a moment, crack open a refreshing beverage and ponder over this week’s beer news.
Effects of AB InBev still are rocking the craft beer world. Read about Wicked Weed’s Beer Competition and AB InBev is hoarding South African Hops.
Beer trends are all over the place, from Peanut Butter Cap’n Crunch Beer (thought of you Z) to Coconut Beer to human urine.
Have a great weekend. I’m off to the MD Craft Beer Festival.
Cheers!
