Ramblings on wine from a German in Ann Arbor. Great news from the Saar river. Working vineyards along the Mosel as well as its two contribuaries Ruwer and Saar is hard work. The vineyards are often steep, as in very steep, the resulting wines are still insanely undervalued on the world market (especially when you consider how much manual labor needs to go into these vineyards), and this has led to a decrease in area under vine year after year. The Rebirth of a Riesling legend. Go ahead and share! I am a ...

Why you say goodbye. Why you say goodbye) I say hello. We’re All Rock Stars. Internet Geographies, or The View from Twitter →. May 24, 2011. Making mix tapes was still a thing when I was a teenager [although J has assured me that it, in fact, was NOT still a thing; I was just behind the times]: I remember seeing John Cusack’s character in. Yea, he’s right, making a mix tape. A few years later, burned CDs took over, and mix tapes became almost obsolete. Would be on my Michigan mix tape. Five years, we sai...

Great Lakes, Great Beer: October 2010
http://greatlakesgreatbeer.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Great Lakes, Great Beer. Craft Beer and Roving Mentation. Saturday, October 16, 2010. So much potential, just waiting. There is a certain magic in starting with a bunch of malted grain and ending up with beer. Magic, and a fair amount of chemistry, attention to detail, and several hours of rather joyful work. Back in May. Real life has its way of running interference, so I only recently got around to brewing up this batch, an English brown ale. Figuring that my first extract batch. Also had an article on...

Great Lakes, Great Beer. Craft Beer and Roving Mentation. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Back in the saddle. Oh goodness, has it really been about 3 months since my last post? Those dang timestamps don't lie. Despite the fact that one can't help but feel a certain affection for one's blog, I haven't been keeping up with mine. In an effort to change that, I've decided to stop writing for Examiner.com. For butter and flour. yes, that's right, just butter and flour. And I walked out with five or six sin...Of co...

http://greatlakesgreatbeer.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Great Lakes, Great Beer. Craft Beer and Roving Mentation. Friday, April 29, 2011. I've been swamped at work, dealing with appeals, jury trials, and generally seeking justice in a crazy system. So, while some exciting things have been happening in this wonderful beer town called Ann Arbor, I haven't been writing about it. But today, I can finally catch a little time to mention a few items of interest. First of all, I'm writing this post right at Arbor Brewing. Over at Wolverine State Brewing Co. Wolverine...

Great Lakes, Great Beer. Craft Beer and Roving Mentation. Sunday, February 7, 2010. Michigan: the stout state. Michigan is the stout state. No, I'm not referring to a public health issue. Rather, we're blessed with a superb stout selection made by our very own Michigan brewers. I haven't had a chance to explore them all, by any means, but so far I've reviewed several here and in Examiner.com. And I'm always amazed at how good Michigan stouts are. I want to recap some of those reviews here. Back to Larry ...

Great Lakes, Great Beer. Craft Beer and Roving Mentation. Tuesday, March 8, 2011. Or: Dude, you saved my homebrew! Ray Daniels, wherever you are right now, thank you! I should've read your terrific book, Designing Great Beers. With my students on winter break, and their winter break not coinciding with my kids' winter break (not sure how that. Nordquist. After a little time with Beer Alchemy. Looked and smelled like a chocolate milkshake in the kettle. They looked so promising! The solution, post-mashing...
