Please note: I am not a beer drinker. In fact, it's very rare that I'll drink alcohol at all. There's nothing I hold against those who enjoy it (in moderation 'course). And I know next to nothing about what makes a good beer. The first time I tried drinking any, it was in Belgium in 1993. To this day I still cannot adequately describe how dark that stuff was...
Even so, lacking knowledge and experience hasn't been an impediment toward enjoying Eric Smith's new blog North Carolina Beers! A home-brewer for well over a decade, Eric's new site is "dedicated to North Carolina Beers and Breweries. Over
the next year or two I plan on visiting every brewery in NC and writing
a review on each of them. I will write about as many beers as I can
and there may be some beer specific post as well." In less than a week he's already got four stories up: the latest is a review of Natty Greene's Greensboro.
It's this kind of spotlight on local culture along with the history behind it that I've always enjoyed finding. There's plenty of it already on North Carolina Beers. Go check it out and tell 'em that Chris sent ya :-)
