Dallas Winter Warmer Heats up North Texas Once Again

We may have just experienced the coldest weekend in recent memory in Dallas, but things are about to heat up as the Dallas Winter Warmer fest rolls into town once again. And the event organizers aren't playing around with the beer list for this one - be prepared for your 5 oz. Belgian snifter to be sufficiently boozed up with some of the best stouts, porters, and barrel-aged beauties around.

My Favorite Washington, DC Craft Beers From 2013

Over the past few years, DC breweries have really been coming into their own and are now on an upswing. Still, DC is more of a brewpub-inhabited area. There's a pretty good amount of them, with the likes of Capitol City Brewing Company, Gordon Biersch, and the newest addition to the scene, Bluejacket, all having solid reputations around the city. They all make quality products, no doubt, but I'm going to discuss my favorite beers from straight-up breweries for this article.

My Favorite Oregon Craft Beers From 2013

'Tis the season for year-end lists and seriously, who doesn't enjoy reminiscing about those great things that've populated our lives over the past 365 days? I tend to specifically revel in the year-end music lists, as I generally create one each year as well, but this will be my first attempt to conjure from the mists that lurk in the back of my noggin those beers that made Oregon proud, in turn, making the year even tastier.

Favorite Florida Craft Beers from 2013

Jeanna Malines here reporting from the frozen tundra of Florida! Well, not really, but it did drop below 50 and all the natives busted out parkas. Seriously.

So the powers that be at ACB have asked us all to come up with our favorite regional beers of 2013. At first, I thought this was going to be a cakewalk. Just my opinion? No research or fact-checking? Easy peasy! Then I got to thinking about all the great beers I have had this year and I realized that I was in trouble. There's a reason I love tapas restaurants - I have no discernable decisive abilities.

My Favorite Chicagoland Craft Beers From 2013

Picking three favorite beers from the past year is almost like choosing your favorite child. Come to think of it, I've met a lot of kids who are complete assholes so that's probably not as tough as one would think. However, selecting them from the booming craft beer hotbed that is Chicagoland is no enviable task. From Chicago's far west suburbs down to Indianapolis and up to the chilly regions of Michigan, the market has grown by leaps and bounds in 2013 and shows no signs of slowing down. Oh well, it's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it. Without further ado...
