Dirt — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 19:36:15 +0000

Things We May Have in Common with Terrapin Brewing Company

1. We’re fans of The Grateful Dead 2. We may or may not have eaten Chinese food this week. 3. We would pick Athens as our next home. 4. We cannot confirm nor deny the fact that we may have slept in a stairwell and/or fallen into a few bushes. 5. We love their Beer.

From their groovy turtle to their groovy beer, Terrapin Brewing Company is hands down an icon and trendsetter in the craft beer industry.

Jackie O’s – Athens, Ohio : Special Release (Barrel Aged Dark Apparition & Oil of Aphrodite)

Quench Wench — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 17:43:41 +0000

**The Ladies of Brews Travelers (Hop Mama’s, as we like to call them) made a special trip to Athens, Ohio. Seriously, on their own they made the decision. Here is their experience of the special release by Jackie O’s **

OK, first of all I am not a college student so I was apprehensive about hanging out at Jackie O’s in downtown Athens, the home of Ohio University. The last time I did that I was there for a Keg and [...]

Right Brain Brewery – Traverse City, Michigan

Dirt — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 17:07:58 +0000

Honestly, I thought Traverse City was a lot closer to I-75 than it really is. I took a measurement and it was only about two knuckles away on the map. If anyone knows two knuckle measurement, it’s a man on a mission.

Two Knuckles = 1 ounce of liquor Two Knuckles = the distance between the opening of your nostril and the spot between your eyebrows.

Anyway, two knuckles are a common measurement for all sorts of things. You name [...]

Original Gravity Brewing – Milan, Michigan

Dirt — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 02:01:51 +0000

Seriously… No Bullshit. I rate it 4 Brews Travelers Visors. ( out of 5…)

I’m gonna showcase this article with a quick 5 WHY. (Like why did I give it 4 out of 5 without really explaining the deduction of the 5th beatle visor.)

Location – It’s about 1/10 of a mile off the highway and not far from Detroit or Ann Arbor. Beer- it’s good, it’s creative and it’s good. You heard me. Tap Handles – Cool, Creative and [...]

South Park Tavern – Dayton, Ohio

Brews Travelers — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 22:28:09 +0000

Traveling is great, but sometimes we just don’t have the time to get out of town. After reviewing a great taproom a couple of weeks ago (Tribes Alehouse), I think it’s time I share one that is closer to home.

Dayton and the surrounding areas are known for a few things, such as The Wright Brothers, NCR, Mike Schmidt (former MLB player), Rob Lowe, Martin Sheen, Allison Janney, Erma Bombeck, Edwin C. Moses, Nancy Cartwright (The voice of Bart Simpson), [...]

The Tribes Alehouse – Mokena, Illinois

Brews Travelers — Fri, 14 May 2010 20:19:39 +0000

We have been waiting a long time to bring a Tap Room to the pages of BrewsTravelers.com and here it is, The Tribes Alehouse in Mokena, Illinois.

We have been to quite a few places with great taps including The Map Room in Chicago and Hop Cat in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We just have not been ready for a full review on either of those places. Besides, we love to find the hidden jewel and it looks like we [...]

Cigar City Brewing (Tap Room) – Tampa, Florida

Gabe The Imperial — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 20:19:58 +0000

The clean, white beaches of the Gulf Coast combined with the brilliant sun, dynamic, flavorful food, multitude of cultures and hand rolled cigars makes Tampa the ultimate destination for any tourist.

However, a beer tourist needs more.

I don’t want to speak for everyone one, so this is what I need.

A local brewpub, taproom or brewery ( or two ) Hopefully, One beerstore with a knowledgeable staff Possibly, other craftbeer bars/brewpubs within a 45 minute radius

Without looking too hard, I found that Tampa’s burgeoning [...]

Sun King Brewing – Indianapolis, Indiana

Gabe The Imperial — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 22:08:44 +0000

Normally, I go on and on about insignificant facts and blah, blah, blah discussions, but this time it’s pretty simple. Sun King is a fantastic start-up with very good beer. Period.

The first time I was going to visit I tried to figure out the timezone change, so that I could get there on time (they have limited hours) then realized that there wasn’t a time difference and I left too late. Since when is Indianapolis on Eastern time? (However, I [...]
