I think I’m liking lists lately. So here’s another one:
- Brewery Vivant while in Grand Rapids this weekend
- Survive 10 days of events for Chicago Craft Beer Week (May 17-27)
- Ada Street for a cocktail or two
- Publican Quality Meats for a weekday lunch
- Whistler patio on a warm night
- Drink a Letherbee gin cocktail (only available at L&E and Lula)
- Trenchermen, whenever the hell it decides to open

DURANGO, COLO., (Mar. 6, 2011) —It’s different colors, it has alcohol, it’s beer… but for Dave Thibodeau and his co-minions at Ska Brewing Co., (the very first craft brewery to copy Oskar Blues by canning), beer is a passion, a business, and a personal quest to make delicious craft beer and stay employed at the same time. “Brew Minions”, viewable at http://www.vimeo.com/20604077 , is a parody of the Discovery Channel’s recent series “Brew Masters”, featuring Sam Calagione and Dogfish Head Brewery…
