Announcing Beer A Day

Let me start by saying that I enjoy a good beer.

Often several of them; in fact, usually in rapid succession.Beerly Beer

You don’t need special training to enjoy beer.   Trust me, I’m no beer expert.  What’s the difference between a lager and an ale, or a porter and a stout?  Beats me.  But give me a few minutes with Google and I’ll give you a sufficient answer.  You could probably beat me to it, in fact.

I enjoy trying new beer, and I hope you will too.

I’m a guy with a six pack and no abs.  Plop me down in a brew pub with a wide selection on tap, and I’m in heaven.  Usually.  I have a broad palate and I appreciate a wide range of beer types, but sometimes — man! — a beer just isn’t good.  Fortunately, that’s never scared me away from trying something new.

I want to get exposure to some new beers.  This is where it will happen.

My resolution for 2009 is to drink a new beer every day for the entire year.

On the surface, that sounds fairly simple.  But I’ve set out a few strict rules:

  1. I must drink a beer every day.
  2. I cannot drink more than one beer in any given day.
  3. No repeats allowed — once I drink a particular beer, that’s it.
  4. For each beer, I must record my thoughts here, on Beer A Day.net.


The rules mean I have only one chance to really “get to know” a new beer — I’m not allowed an extra pint to get a second opinion.  And with only one beer allowed each day, if I want another drink I’ll be having wine, whiskey, port, saké, tequila, vodka… so while this blog will be primarily about beer, I’m sure there will be a few posts about bourbon or a new mixed drink I’ve just discovered.

One way or the other, I’ll be branching out and learning something new.  And I hope you’ll come along for the ride.
