Home and craft brewing across the nation
Sunday was a beautiful day. Daylight Savings gave us back our long evenings and as if on cue, the warmth of Spring arrived with blue skies all over the North Bay. On an day like this, there’s nothing better than spending the a cool late afternoon outside at the Hopmonk for a Brewer’s Dinner. More »

That’s right, today is Beer Day! In Iceland, they celebrated the end of 74 years of prohibition in 1989 with what has come to be known as Beer Day. I am sure you’re wondering, “Why do I care?” Well, it’s a good reason to drink a beer, and secondly, because the powers that be at Examiner.com asked that we all write about it. More »
February in Sonoma County can be a little damp. The weather gets chilly, rain will roll in a out pretty much constantly throughout the month.
