About

Hey, I’m justin.  I am a kind of quirky guy, and a beer drinker.  I love beer!  I have been planning for awhile to do some type of a beer-a-day thing and after much thought, and research, I am ready.

Many people have tried to do the one a day idea before, many have failed.  Some have succeeded!  I hope to succeed and experience a wide variety of brews.  The goal is to drink a different beer everyday for 365 days (or one year).  I might drink more than one a day, and I will document that here. I am not into New Years Resolutions so I am starting this quest on an odd day, January 29 2010.

This site will document my experiences and discuss beer related things I encounter along the way.  This is my second beer goal.  Last year my goal was to drink 50 different beers at my favorite bar, Ye Olde Forge in Lanesborough MA.  I succeeded.  This was a tough one because I live 25min away and had a really rough year.  That said, it seems like a good place to start my new beer goal.  To start off the year, I headed to the Forge with some friends.  Next year, on the 29th of January, I will head back to the Forge!

I suspect that the hardest part will be actually drinking everyday.  Right now I drink a beer or two most days.  I usually vary my beverages so that should be ok.  Lets see how this thing goes.

The “beer goals” for this year:

  • drink at least one different beer a day and document the experience on this site
  • Study for and take the Beer Judge Certification Program exam
  • Brew at least one batch of beer
  • Hold a few tastings for friends, basically so I can practice my sommelier skills

I called this site “Beer-geek, dude” because I prefer to be referred to as dude, and I am a self-identified Beer-Geek.
