Ode to the best craft beers

While walking back from a failed mission to find a decent lounge in my near by neighborhood in Bed-ford-Stuyvesant Brooklyn, I decided to stop by the countless late night to 24 hour convenience stores and pick up some craft beers to ease some tension and some prolonged heart break. Between picking between the wide assortment of some pretty good selections in the local craft beer cellar, I said to myself "your new found obsession towards craft beers could slowly put yourself in the category of either an enthusiast or alcoholic." To quickly put myself in the more pleasant category of enthusiast, I decided to be productive and write about why craft beer is so much better than the sanitized seltzer water that is the major imported brands that everyone swears by. Also, writing about my craft beer experiences and daily appreciation and fondness for craft beers and the craft beer industry, would make it easier to chronicle my favorite craft beers and also make it easier to pick my favorites quicker whenever I am at a local night spot or my local neighborhood craft beer cellar AKA bodega, corner store or convenient store. Not to mention its a nice productive balance to the alcohol consumption that might seem slightly counter-productive.

So here is my toast to the craft beer industry, craft beer enthusiasts as well as to all those who might be over whelmed by so many selections of craft beers on the market. I hope everyone enjoys this enthusiasts opinions of all the selections written about and I hope it serves as a some what decent directory from an amateurs point of view. In all of the upcoming posts will be observations about the companies, types of craft beers, craft beer festival and most things craft beer related.
