So many craft beers, so little time. With so many craft breweries, releasing so many beers, we thought it might help to provide a weekly update on all the new beers that are hitting the streets .....So welcome to this week's edition of Newbies - your guide to great new craft beer releases!

Here at ACB, we're dyed-in-the-wool beer geeks, but we won't turn our nose up to a decent wine in the case of an emergency, say, for example, the apocalypse has struck and there isn't a craft beer to be found within a 100 mile radius. But as Dogfish Head has proven before, it doesn't have to be an either or situation. You can have both. In the same glass. And now they've done it again, combining their 60 minute IPA with syrah grape must to make a new concoction called Sixty-One.

Washington, DC boasts many things - a diverse population, museums for just about everything, a lack of statehood, and it's the capital of a little country you may have heard of: the U.S.A. But DC isn't just the museum toting un-cola of states; it's also a great place to find a pint of cask conditioned ale. So, let's start off with the basics - what is cask ale? Then, we'll get into a few places in DC that serve them and why you should care.

In honor of Super Bowl Sunday, Bailey is cooking up some awesome Belgian Beer Ribs. Despite the fact that she is struggling to figure out what team and/or sport she should be cheering for, we think her ribs deserve some serious MVP points. So, grab your favorite Belgian, a rack of ribs, and go for it!

Hey it's Wednesday and it's Rumor Mill Time.....Craft Beer will be heading south for this weekend's Super Bowl XLVII and will be throwing its own "coming out" party in New Orleans. And Rumor Mill hears that broadcasting legend Dan Patrick's going to be there too! We'll be giving you everything that we know so far, plus we've got some fast-breaking craft beer news from La-La Land as well as from our friends at Green Flash. We also have a hot new craft beer release that you've got to get your hands on! So fasten your seatbelts everybody, because ....THIS WEEK'S RUMOR MILL IS ON!

If there's one thing we Floridians are known for, it's doing things right. From well-managed elections to the careful and competent handling of high-profile criminal cases, we know what we're doing down here! OK, maybe not so much... but there's something Florida is doing right and that's making exceptional craft beer, and the craft beer community in Central Florida is all the better for it.

Here in the Pacific Northwest, we spend a lot of time raving about unusually hoppy/boozy/heavy/rambunctious beers with funny names. Today, I'm here to laud the extreme beer's modest and easygoing cousin - the session ale - and the brewery that's bringing this beer to Seattle.

We blame the industry for this... It used to be that when we wrapped up our Weekend Picks on Friday, we could coast through the weekend. There was little need to check in for updates - things were pretty much done. But with so much going down lately - all that's changed. So here's some of what's happened in the world of craft beer news while you were enjoying your weekend.

Good things are happening in Big Sky Country, where craft beer has finally arrived. This shouldn't really surprise anyone. Montana has long been known for its wide open spaces and the independent spirit of its people. You've got to think that they'd be all about the craft beer ethos - small independent brewers making beer for themselves and their communities - and now they are.

There's nothing better than playing host for out-of-town friends on a gorgeous 60-degree weekend in January - unless, of course, a much-anticipated local brewery just so happens to be opening that same weekend. Dallas's trendy Design District, which contains an inspiring mix of local artisans and manufacturers, is now home to another fantastic brewery - Community Beer Company.
