It's not a sprint, it's a marathon

So, I am all set to go for my first week of brews, and to say that I am excited would be an understatement.

After a trip to my LHBS (local homebrew store) I picked up 5 beers I've never had, 1 I've had once, and there was an additional 1 in my fridge that is a limited release. I'm still debating and coming up with ideas for what I want to do with this beer-journal/blog, so it's quite possible that from post to post I will change things up.

What I have decided is this:
- Each beer doesn't have to be in the "Never tried before" category
- For the most part I will aim to try beers that are less common and not necessarily the flagship brew
- Both bottles and drafts are fair game; I'll be having quite a few at restaurants/bars/pubs in addition to at home
- I will occasionally post my homebrews (but only if they are really good)
- Instead of letter grades I am going to scale the beers based on how likely I am to buy/drink each one again
- There will be a photo, video, or both of each one I try
- I'll post as many pertinent details (ABV%, style, background, etc.) as I deem necessary

Don't want to commit to too much, but I think that is a decent set of guidelines.

Be sure to come back tomorrow evening for the first post! (and, of course, every day afterwards) And post comments, too. I'm all about getting some love.

Cheers!
