Four craft beer and brewing stories you should know

teaching mead class

I was at the meadmaking class at Xtreme Brewing last weekend along with a dozen or more mead makers and would-be mead makers. Jon Talkington, who expects to open Brimming Horn Meadery in Lewes in the coming weeks, discussed the history and finer points of making honey mead. We broadcast the entire thing on the […]

For love and beer – Our favorite love stories

We’re proud and happy to announce this year’s winner of the Shore Craft Beer Love Story is Amy West. She and her special someone will receive two tickets to Love on Tap, which is nearly sold out (so click here if you still didn’t get ’em) as well as a room at the Dunes Manor […]

Craft fermentables and awesomely pretentious glasses

We’re rolling toward the end of FeBREWary so I pretty much can stop pretending it is harder to say than the normal way. Also, I’ve used more CAPS this month than I care to think about. This week I got out for Valentine’s Day twice and had some OK beer along the way. I say […]

A gentleman never tells

My love affair with Shore Craft Beer began in the summer of 2014. It was a warm and sunny day in late July when my wife and I paid our first visit to 45th Street Taphouse Bar & Grille in Ocean City. We sat out on the patio, and with a nice breeze blowing, all […]

Eternal Love for each other? Or Craft Beer?

When a relationship, like a good craft beer, is at the bottom you tend to look for more of a good thing. We had reached the bottom of our relationship last August but instead of getting a different beer we decided to go back to best thing we ever had, each other! We decided a […]

It Takes Two: Craft Beer Love stories

In the summer of 2015, we discovered the Shore Craft Beer challenges via a pamphlet my husband picked up for me at 3rd Wave Brewery. This is significant because not only does my husband drink very little, and drink no beer, he doesn’t even like beer. So it was purely with me in mind that […]

There still is plenty of winter to taste

This week I got out to taste all (or at least most) of the special releases for the Love on Tap event at Seacrets. The Kohana Chocolate Cherry Stout by 3rd Wave, XO Stout by Evo, and the the Sofa King Sexy Stout by Backshore Brewing. All were dark roasty and tasty. We’ve still got […]

Chapter 4: It isn’t always about the beer, I guess.

Don’t get me wrong, we love getting and sharing these stories, but this does happen to be a contest about local craft beer. This week, we didn’t get a ton of that, but people were enthusiastic in their love for Ocean City, which always is nice to hear. The contest is open just a few […]

I Love This Beer!

We’ve been poking around breweries and bars all over the Shore to talk to people who go directly to the source for their favorite beer, we collect the videos and post them to our SCB YouTube page (where we also put other stuff). We can’t be everywhere, though. If you wanna make your own “I […]

Chapter Three: All the Single Ladies

This week we have a sole entry, which is good for the entrants so far, but bad for you if you’re not one of them. Here are chapters One and Two. Remember, you still can participate until Valentine’s Day proper by submitting your Craft Beer Love Story here for a chance to win tickets and a […]
