School apps are over. Celebration time.

This time is a chock full of unicorn IPA's and some very serious and tasty Burgundies.

First ever Grimm can is a hit. Plus a sake from a brewery that no long exists.

Beer and wine episode. Including some very good Burgundies and an absolutely stellar grower's Champagne.

Wine-only issue! Including a birth year wine for my birthday.

Being in Hong Kong means more Japanese craft beers. Keeping the grind on over break.

Finally time to update. Celebrating the end of 2016 with a monstrous lineup of craft brews, many of which are smuggled back from the States.

The Alchemist Focal Banger! Perfect 100.

Thanksgiving and Burgundy Social. That means plenty, PLENTY of wines, including a 1964 Fratelli Minuto Barolo!

Back to basics with a very IPA-heavy issue. All sorts of double IPA's on review.

Turning the gears back on with some impressive sake and wines. Special mention on the Hakurakusei Tojo Akitsu which is brought back from Hong Kong.

Turning the gears back up with plenty of summery drinks, from ciders to chardonnays to single malts, to hail the end of summer. 

Another wine-heavy issue with many offerings from Burgundy. Also a tasting note on the 1993 Dom Perignon.

A short but wine-heavy issue, with a very memorable Riesling from 1971 produced in the now-obsolete West Germany. Remarkable piece of history.

10 month anniversary! This time boasting a very impressive sake lineup with heavyweights such as Isojiman (磯自慢) and premium editions of Kokuryu (黑龍) and Dassai (獺祭).

Wine (Burgundy-centric) and sake only this time. In this month's post, I emphasize on reviewing sakes that are commonly found in the States.

A whisky-heavy issue. The Dogfish Head Fort also makes a reappearance. Finally, two reviews on some mid-to-high tier sake.

A one-off return of the discontinued Laphroaig 15, and a double magnum Sonoma chardonnay for dinner.

A recovery month where I drank less. Nonetheless, there are some incredible beers drunk - including the Westvleteren's that I have been searching for years! Also a dram of the 2013 Winkle 10.

Holiday session means a whisky heavy post, featuring the history and tasting notes of rare gems like the Ardbeg Day, Balvenie Rose and Brora 11th Release (35 yo). 

More beer-focused this time round, including a comparative tasting that shows how age affects the flavor and aroma profile of high alcohol brews.

Kicking things into high gear this month, with some very impressive, monstrous champagne and sake heavyweights.

Beer and Sake heavy this time round.

Featuring a trio of rather legendary Burgundies.
