Enjoying a good beer is taking a pause for a brief celebration of life. Gaining a deeper knowledge of any subject, — we find that the more we learn the more we realize we don't know. So, this is a place to get deeper into all things beer. Be a sojourner or share in the journey of a beer wanderlust — where ever it takes us.

The New Yorker magazine has done an interesting treatment of the status of the craft beer industry.

I like their definition of what comprises a craft brewery as "decidedly non-Budweiser-esque beers".
