I’m getting ready to go on vacation! My destination may not be a world-renowned beer town like Portland or Denver, but I’m sure I will find a way to enjoy some delicious craft brews. For those of you who are forced to stay home and endure your normal slog, I present you with a week’s worth of beer news and shenanigans. You can read The Weekly Buzz while you pretend to do your TPS reports. I, on the other hand, will be in Myrtle Beach drinking beer and pretending that I like the beach.

Here’s your best chance to see what New York has to offer!

Experience NYS beer, cider, wine and spirits all at one event, alongside regional fare from local purveyors: https://t.co/0mOGRFDeyf pic.twitter.com/3MnEMmiWNF
