Beer of the Month Club!
Enjoy a variety of rare and wonderful beers from small craft breweries around the country. Beer of the Month Club
Beer is made from only four ingredients, a grain (usually barley), water, hops and yeast; and comes in essentially two types -- ale and lager. The many varieties available today are just variations on these two themes. Ale is how beer was made for millennia--natural yeasts in the air attacked the blend of water, hops and malted barley and started the fermentation process.
Boddington’s Pub Ale
Boddington’s Pub Ale.
Bury St-Edmunds, England
About as close to a true Brit pub bitter as you’ll find on the west side of the Atlantic. It’s a dark gold color and quite mild for a bitter; mellow and smooth with a lingering dry finish.

Hoegaarden
A quite unique beer. It’s called a white beer, though it’s really a cloudy pale yellow in color. Hoegaarden is double fermented, once in the barrel and again in the bottle; hence the cloudiness. It has a slightly sweet flavor and that trademark Belgium fruitiness–in a toned down form–and is the perfect accompaniment to Asian food.

Weihenstephaner
Original
In 1040 the Benedictine monastery overlooking the town of Freising in Germany was granted the right to brew. It has also been established that the Benedictine monks had already brewed their own beer much earlier than this. Even as early as 768 a hops garden was founded in the grounds of the monastery.
Beer made with hops, as we know it today, came into being at Weihenstephan.

Sierra Nevada
An American-style pale ale, a delightful example of the classic pale ale style available craft brew in the US. It’s packed with flavor–a full-bodied malty richness in the front of the mouth is followed by a pronounced tangy, dry spicy finish thanks to the liberal use of the fragrant Cascade hops.

Flying Dogs
Brewed in the tradition of centuries old Scottish brewing methods, "Road" is reminiscent of a Porter. Road Dog is a rich, malty
beer with hints of chocolate and licorice resulting from the use
of four prized malts. You may be forced to pawn sell some
jewelry to a pawnshop or some loved ones into servitude to score
a pint of such a brew. $8.73 for 6 packBuy

Beer Making
Good beer requires good ingredients, good equipment and a lot of care and trouble -- all inconvenient and expensive.
In 2005, 70% beer consumed in America was produced by just three companies: Anheuser-Busch, Miller and Molson Coors.
But like other artisanal products undergoing a renaissance, such as bread and cheese, the real stuff tastes so superior that there is a growing demand for it.
