So here's some of what's happened in the world of craft beer while you were off enjoying yourself.
ACB covers craft beer news, entertainment and lifestyle 24/7, and we'd like to think we do a decent job. But there's a lot of great craft beer journalism out there - and were constantly running into articles that we wished that we'd written.

You may have noticed that one of the drawbacks of getting older is that hangovers seem to get rougher and you just can't bounce back like you once could. Well it's true and it's not your imagination. And there are more and more reasons coming to light as to why this happens...
Yikes, it's May already... and clearly nothing is slowing down anytime soon. But no worries, Rumor Mill is always on the case, keeping you plugged in to all the craft beer news that matters. Plus we've an all-important update on what we've been drinking lately and you absolutely don't want to miss that.
