The Weekly Buzz | November 11 – 17

First and foremost, this week’s edition of The Weekly Buzz contains a big “Thank You” to all the veterans who have served this country.

Just last night, I found myself in front of a phenomenal Chicago centric beer list, however I chose Sixpoint’s The Crisp, a combination of a German and Bohemian Pilsner.
