So you are creating your own beer and you get to name it whatever you want, what are YOU going to call it?

I make no bones about it, I have found myself fully engulfed in the world of craft beer. Sample this, a sample that...finding the ones that fit my tastes. It's a lot of fun and I have a great teacher (Thanks Terri!) I actually had a "mint chip" craft brew over the weekend, what in the word.

There are great craft brew spots in our area, so let's start there:

  • The Rock Bar & Grill - Beloit
