Our love of craft beer has made Canada’s national newspaper! We’re featured on the cover of the Life section of today’s Globe and Mail for our (possibly obsessive) beer run to Madison, Wisconsin last summer, to bring home kegs of New Glarus beer (Belgian Red and Raspberry Tart to be exact) for our wedding last fall. Check out the article here!

Oh the irony that I can’t indulge these days. I’m feeling the loss even more acutely now that the weather is warming up. Hard to believe that it’s been 5 months since I thoroughly enjoyed a few good beers. I’ve had a partial glass and a few sips now and then, but I’ve stuck pretty closely to my rheumatologist’s orders to avoid alcohol. Not sure how well my resolve will hold as the mercury rises though. (For those of you just tuning in, I’m on some pretty hefty drugs to treat rheumatoid arthritis that I was diagnosed with last November, and I have to avoid alcohol due to the stress on my liver).
