The Beer-Snobbing Begins

I'm just a 23-year-old that still lives in the Pittsburgh area. Since I've been of legal age, I haven't been interested in anything more than I have with beer. I know what you're thinking. Yeah, he's just some young, college punk that goes out every Thursday night and indulges on pitcher after pitcher of the cheapest beer he can find.

That's far from the truth. If my my elders taught me anything, it was to have an excellent taste when it comes to the beer I drink. I tend to frown upon others my age when it comes to their taste in the holiest of refreshments. That staunch view is why I decided to name this blog as I did.

I'm a beer snob. Even playing the role of poor college student hasn't hindered this taste of mine. I still have always made a point to still spend the extra buck for a tasty craft brew. It's always worth it in my book.

With this blog, I plan to give my opinions on beers (and foods) I've tried and get a chance to try along the way. I plan to pass on news and other important happenings in the beer world, as well as recapping beer-related events and adventures I embark on. The first of those is already in the works, as I visited Penn Brewery on the North Side this past weekend for their Oktoberfest celebration. To the right is just a taste, no pun intended, of what's to come with that post.

I also intend on writing about interesting brew pubs and microbreweries I come across here in Western Pa. In the future I also plan to make a beer rankings list that I will try to keep up-to-date as much as possible. I obviously haven't tried every beer in the world and I've only been of legal age for just over two years, so I can promise you that your favorite beer might not be on said rankings immediately, but I'm certainly open for suggestions!

The blog is obviously still under construction, so if you do come back and find things to be a little different don't be alarmed.

I do have a Twitter account which can be found in the sidebar right on this blog. Please give me a follow. I obviously talk beer and food and enjoy talking about my local Pittsburgh sports teams as well.

Maybe one day we'll meet in your local drinking tavern! Cheers!
