Beerstagrams 1/24- 1/31
January 31, 2014 | Lizzie BourqueLet’s be honest – most of us at PorchDrinking.com only have one thing on our minds this weekend, and it isn’t beer. I hear there’s a pretty sweet football team that’s going to play in a big game on Sunday. This week’s Beerstagrams are all in honor of our native Broncos and their fearless leader, Peyton Manning (or as he’s known in these parts, PFM). GO BRONCOS!

Beerstagrams 1/10-1/17
January 17, 2014 | Lizzie BourquePolar Vortex? Psh. PorchDrinkers made sure that the important things were in the fridge before the deep freeze set in across the Midwest and East Coast. And when the temperature finally rose above zero again, it felt balmy enough to enjoy a Hopslam in the snow! A trip to Mad Tree Brewing also helped warm the soul with samples of their finest creations, including psychopathy (get it, psyc-hop-athy). Make sure to tune in next week for some extra special beerstagrams of the New Belgium brewery!
Beerstagrams 12/27- 1/3
January 3, 2014 | Lizzie BourqueCan’t decide which beer to order? That’s what flights are for! The holidays are the season for overindulging and overordering, and although we’re now into the season of buying-a-gym-membership-only-to-go-twice-in-January-and-bail, we made sure to test out all the craft beers we could this December. New Denver brewery, Station 26 and legendary Ann Arbor staple Ashley’s Pub both made our taste buds happy with samples of their best winter offerings. But it wouldn’t be the holidays without the token “beer by the Christmas tree” pic, so don’t worry we threw a few in there for ya.

December 20, 2013 | Lizzie BourqueI’m the first to admit this holiday season has had me a little over-indulgent, but the good news is all these parties have had no shortage of great beers. A … Read More

So here’s the challenge: how many countries can we get to represent in Beerstagrams before the Opening Ceremonies in Sochi? Tag @PorchDrinkingCO with your entries! In the meantime, check out Denver’s newest brewery Jagged Mountain. Read More

Beerstagrams 10/11- 10/18
October 18, 2013 | Lizzie BourqueHave you recovered from GABF yet? I’m not sure we have either. I know a few PorchDrinkers who were claiming a hiatus from beer after the weekend of craft beer heaven. For the record, the hiatus lasted about 12 hours. There were bottle shares and brewery tours, but most importantly, lots of good times and good drinks. Tristan shared a few drinks and played question master with Stone Brewing’s Greg Koch. Let’s all cheers to another amazing (however, maybe a tad more relaxing) weekend!
