The wheat beer / witbier style is one that is hard to do right. We have had a number of efforts masquerade as a witbier that for all intents and purposes were a lager, but Breckenridge has made an impressive showing here. The beer wit a very hazy yellow / gold coloration, possessing a nose that is strong with hints of citrus, malt, and floral elements. The citrus is also…
Hello. Can you provide us a little information about yourself and what you are attempting to do with your music? I’m a native Atlantan, a singer/songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. My hopes for this new album, “Black Sky Blanket” are to get some songs into tv/film, to other artists who need material, and some airplay would be nice too.
The only-available-on-Hulu comedy Deadbeat flew low under the radar this year, while other Internet TV series like Orange is the New Black and House of Cards dominated most of the media coverage. It’s a shame though, as this goofy, raunchy comedy is funnier than just about most of the new sitcoms that debuted in the same year, on the traditional networks and cable channels.
Destiny is a title that pushes immersion at all costs; the storyline that players are provided with stands as bleak opposition to the pristine future as described by Star Trek. The game is broken off into Titan, Huntr, and Warlock classes, granting players the ability to straddle both shooter and RPG titles. The different races and environments that players will encounter further increases the replay value; there is a sort…

I write songs since a very young age. For me Music is vital like breathing, making Music is my passion, I love to make Music, to represent emotions, to convey feelings, a way of expression.
There are a number of contributions to the overall Oktoberfest zeitgeist that are little more than strongly-flavored lagers. It was surprising to me that we were able to find a tasty, fulfilling Oktoberfest-themed beer in SanTan’s current seasonal. The beer is 5.5% ABV, possesses a very reddish / orange coloration and a small amount of off-white to tannish head that keeps a steady lace down the glass. The beer has…
Contaminated Soil contains contributions from a number of the world’s hottest papers, meaning that habanero, naga jolokia, and Trinidad scorpion peppers provide the heat as ancho, cayenne, jalapeno, and chipotle peppers provide the seasoning’s inimitable profile. There is a smoky, earthy nose to the seasoning and a bright orange coloration that warn individuals about the heat that it possesse. When one actually uses it (we had particularly good luck sprinkling…
Waterkeeper is a golden Hefeweizen that pours with lots of carbonation and a white head that laces down the glass. The initial bouquet is sugary with more acerbic hints that complete the nose. The initial quaff of Waterkeeper is very gentle and brings like a golden German before bursting forward with banana and clove elements. Subsequent sips provide malty and refreshing peaks that make it incredibly easy to finish up.…
Author Nick Hornby has had a decent track record over the years when it comes to transferring his novels into movies. High Fidelity was a critical and fan favorite and the same can be said of About a Boy. Fever Pitch, saw British and American adaptions, both strong, though decidedly different efforts, so Hornby was bound to finally hit a bump in the road.
If you quickly answer “Blink 182!” when asked about your favorite punk band, this book is probably not meant for you. But for those with a burning desire to dig deeper than The Clash and Sex Pistols to discover below-the-radar groups from the original British punk rock scene, then Burning Britain is your new Bible.
Hello. Can you provide us a little information about yourself and what you are attempting to do with your music? I’m attempting to conquer the world! Just kidding, I just wanna be heard and appreciated for trying to bring something a little different and unique and maybe even odd to the table. I wanted to be a singer ever sense I can remember my self, I started writing songs around…
The Posies were one of the best Power Pop bands to come out of the late ‘80s/early ‘90s (just take a moment to let that sink in…). And thanks to nostalgia and a slew of Generation X-ers now running boutique record labels, the world gets to rediscover a number of sadly over-looked beauties from the not too distant past.
There have been a number of beers that have attempted to include different flavors into the mix (pizza, donuts, bacon), but have failed to make an alluring beer. Bergers Cookies is a Baltimore institution, and Full Tilt has utilized their cookies to create a beer that is eminently drinkable while having enough of a left-field approach to really elicit attention. The beer pours with a tannish head that creates lace…
Tour De Fall is a refreshing pale all that pours with a lingering white head and an amber/reddish coloration. The nose of Tour De Fall is sweet, sugary, and ends with the slightest hop notes. The initial sip of the Tour De Fall is refreshing and provides the same dichotomy between sweet and hops. I feel that this beer does something for everyone – it has a hop backbone for…
The beer pours with a steadfast, off-white head. The beer is a hazy yellow / brown and is quite bubbly and effervescent. The beer’s initial taste is slightly sweet and slightly hoppy, providing a nice bite that will warm imbibers up. Descender is a clean and crisp beer that provides a variety of elements with each subsequent sip, meaning that there is dryness that is followed by a sugared bite.…
While we wait patiently for a sequel, prequel or even TV series of the cult comedy Wet Hot American Summer, director David Wain has just given audiences the next best thing. The romantic (well, sort of) comedy (most definitely) They Came Together, comes from team that made Wet Hot American Summer; David Wain is back as director and so are Amy Poehler, Paul Rudd, Michael Ian Black and Christopher Meloni.
Joe Purdy may have only been around since 2001, but that hasn’t stopped him from putting out an astonishing 13 records in that time frame. His latest, Eagle Rock Fire, is more of the same from this Arkansas folk/country musician.
The Charleston, SC duo Shovels & Rope caused quite a frenzy among critics jumping over each other to praise their 2012 debut. I can only imagine the chorus of approval that will meet the even stronger Swimmin’ Time.
It’s been more than a decade since Midge Ure last offered a full album of new songs and the result is sure to please those who’ve been following the musician since the ‘80s. Fragile, coming in at 10 songs, is a delicate collection of synth-heavy songs that have not been swayed by recent fads in contemporary music; there is no forced reinvention, rather Ure sticks to his own brand New Wave…
Closing in on the final season of this gripping crime drama (the fifth and last season kicks off in September), the fourth season concludes with some of the best cliff hangers the show has ever had and makes up for a weak season three.
