  1. @ppolischuk well lah di dah, fancy pants.
  2. @IMGoph ooh cider, good idea - thanks!
  3. @danielpcrawford nice, those Saranac Trail Mix packs served me well in college
  4. @totalvibration oh interesting - wheat to other Belgians wasn't an avenue I'd thought of
  5. Question: What was your gateway beer? At the Yuengling/Michelob/Heineken level, what led you to explore better beer?
  6. New column: What gives beer its color? drinks.seriouseats.com/2012/02/ask-be…
  7. Regardless of your stance on beer cocktails, this visual recipe chart by @fabiorex is awesome visual.ly/beer-cocktails
  8. New advice column: How Should a Non-Beer Drinker Stock a Beer Fridge? drinks.seriouseats.com/2012/02/how-to…
  9. @DCchilin If you read carefully, I was talking about Porticus, not their gose. And of course, Brettanomyces does indeed contribute acidity.
  10. @aperfectpint it's fantastic on draft, subdued brett gives a barely tart finish. probably more pronounced in bottle, I'd be curious to hear
  11. @aperfectpint just came across your pad thai pairings too - love the gose. Have you had Bahnhof's Porticus?
  12. Great beer-and-chocolate pairing piece by my colleague @aperfectpint. Love the focus on cacao levels - very helpful! drinks.seriouseats.com/2012/02/beer-p…
  13. @BrewersAssoc Will do, thanks!
  14. @BrewersAssoc and if you have a report but not online, would you send it to beerspotter(at)gmail? Thanks!
  15. @BrewersAssoc I'm looking for craft beer sales by style - I know you've done a release on that but I can't find it. Do you have a link?
  16. Wow. MillerCoors buys @CrispinCider, probably the best widely available US cider beernews.org/2012/02/miller…
  17. @adamnason @dcbeer Good point, and I've been on both sides of that injustice. Is this in response to a particular incident?
  18. Sincere thanks to everyone who's submitting awesome questions - I'm excited to get to tackling them!
  19. @dfroms Thanks Dan!
  20. @Span_Prisoners Yeah man! I'm bummed I missed your last Glasslands show, but good luck with the van-draiser
