|
Written by Stephen Beaumont
|
|
“The United States is the most exciting beer market in the world today.”
Those words, or a reasonable approximation thereof, were spoken several years ago by none other than Michael Jackson, and have been echoed by many people since, yours truly included.

Beer Drinking Strategies — Get the Most Out of Your Pint! |
|
Written by Paul Sullivan
|
|
A subject worthy of consideration: how do beer drinkers plan which beers they will drink in an evening? Say a guy goes into a bar…you, in other words, go into a good beer bar with lots of choices — how would you plan your night of beer drinking? Or maybe you would have no plan? While some might act on sheer impulse, most of us have some sort of a progression in mind. Perhaps start with something thirst quenching, and then move through the choices, getting stronger, or hoppier, or darker (or any combination). Below are a few basic types of beer drinkers, and then of course there are always the exceptions…but whatever the strategies are, we can all learn something from each one.

|
Written by Michael Venters
|
|

Brew Chef Waterzooi — Weird Name, But Wonderful “Soup”! |
|
Written by Tim "The Brew Chef" Schafer
|
|
In the Dutch language, waterzooi translates literally as “watery mess” — a very tasty mess. Although most won’t argue about the name thing, folks might quarrel that waterzooi is more of a stew than a soup, so let’s just settle on calling it a “stoup”. No matter what you call it, waterzooi is a savory dish that features chicken or seafood (occasionally both), simmered with vegetables and herbs, all pulled together with an egg or two and a touch of cream.
