Andrea and I have been in the process of moving, so it’s been hard to check in.  Luckily, Nate has been posting on the site.  After 2300 miles of driving, I’ve got some really high aspirations for living in California. I’ve spied out the best places to buy beer, and we have a place here in Pasadena that claims to have the most draft beers (we’ll see about that).  I’ve actually not had much a chance to head that way, so I will be posting some California beer stuff in the near future.  I have made a few beer purchases recently, which means you can expect some reviews of California beers very soon.

I’m actually a little more interested in speaking about our country.  It really is a lovely places with a wide variety of landscapes and culture.  I’m amazed at the shear breadth and depth of mountains to valleys here.  Of course, I’m going to make an application to attitudes and beer culture.

If you have not or know someone who has not plunged into the wide variety of beers and beer cultures in America, push that person into trying some new stuff.  Having traveled recently, I can tell you that the possibilities are almost endless.  There are a few places that I’m going to highlight in a future article along the way.  (Stay tuned for some good places to buy beer in Springfield, MO, for instance.)  But this brief post is really about checking in with you and holding out some future hope that I’ll have a ton to write about in California.  I’ll be telling about some beer stores in OK and MO.
