News on Tap – August 14, 2015
It’s easy to let time pass by when you’re schlepping to your job that you love too much, but then Friday comes and you grab that ice cold beer (or in my case, cider), and everything is forgotten. All of the times you got pinged at work, the nagging supervisors, and dumb coworkers who you don’t even know how they even got hired.
Maybe you’re heading home by train, bus, subway…or maybe you’re stuck in traffic (hopefully not texting and driving though) and realize that you didn’t catch up on your brew news for the week. Don’t worry! I have you covered with the weekly News on Tap, a quick overview of what’s going on in the beer world.
