Pop Culture Week In Review Feb. 1 – 7
February 7, 2014 | Nik Heimach
It’s been said that all substances lower the quality of your writing, but heighten your opinion of it. If that’s the case, by the time I finish this article, I’ll swear it’s my magnum opus.
Not from anything illegal, mind you, but from that most auspicious of beverages: beer. That’s what you get when PorchDrinking.com founder Tristan Chan shows up in your city and hops from brewery to brewery with you in tow. It’s when you get to taste brews named “Clown Tears,” “Quaff on Hare Trigger” and “Kono Koko” while sharing conversations and laughs with a group of people you just met. But I can’t think of a better way to end my PorchDrinking hiatus than with a night like that.

We don’t blame you. It happens to lots of people. GIF-lists are click-bait on the internet, and more sites are using them as ways to lure in viewers with entertaining and highly share-able content. This list of GIFs is different. This is a list of GIFs to show how I feel about the growing trend of GIF lists.

Brew Bites | NFL Sunday Recipes & Crack Dip
February 1, 2014 | Lilly Sue
Super Bowl Sunday is always a wonderful time to get together with friends while enjoying delicious food and beer. Whether a football fan or not, people love an excuse to celebrate. To be honest, I like watching football, but I am no die-hard fan and it would not be as much fun without everything that comes along with it 🙂 Read More
Beerstagrams 1/24- 1/31
January 31, 2014 | Lizzie Bourque
Let’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!

“New” Hollywood Movies Are Starting to Get Old
January 30, 2014 | Christian Bolen Walker
It’s normally a struggle to describe déjà vu to someone when you feel it. “It’s like, I remember you being here with me and we were doing something like this, but not… Ya know what I mean?” Rarely are we able to eloquently articulate the sensation of experiencing something that we sense we’ve already experienced before. The exception to that rule is if you were having this conversation on the way out of a movie theater recently. In that case, you could simply describe how there were striking similarities between the film you just saw and the TV show it was based on, or the previous film in the series, or the original version of the film that came out 10 years ago. I think the title to the seventh installment of X-Men movies sums it up pretty well. X-Men: Days of Future Past. That’s what the movie industry feels like right now. The future releases were actually released someday in the past.
