So this beer blog thing has been going for over a month now, and I’ve yet to write about actual beer drinkin’. Just some good, ole-fashioned, simple beer drinkin’. Ghost River’s release of their seasonal 1887 IPA this week as well as a recent acquisition of some Surly Furious conveniently coincided to have a pretty solid night of IPA’s.
Originally an English style brewed loaded with hops as a means of preservation from the long voyage from England to their colonies, IPA’s have become one of the most popular styles over the last decade or so of the American craft brewing scene.
