Taking some time...

The late summer and fall have certainly been a busy time in our household. We've been busy with work and have taken some time to get away and try some new beers by visiting Duluth, Minnesota - one of our favorite cities - in October, which included our first trip to Ursa Minor Brewing. Then in November, we ventured to Boston for Thanksgiving. Showing up while family members had a couple of days of school and work before the holiday allowed us to try some new places and a couple of old favorites. We visited Democracy Brewing, Harpoon, and Trillium's Seaport location one day, and Cambridge Brewing Company and Lamplighter Brewing Company the next. It is important to enjoy moments in new and old places along the beer journey.

As the hectic days of the year end holidays hit us with full force, self care is vital so remember to take time to for yourself. I firmly believe a well-made and well-served beer is a part of that and I am guess you do too since you're reading this blog. I will also put some time into study for the Advanced Cicerone® exam. The next level of Cicerone certification is a long range goal and may or may not come before Beer Judge Certification Program training. For now, my study consists of fleshing out the Advanced Cicerone outline available at www.cicerone.org - while studying for Certified Cicerone® exam a few years ago I had purchased the study guide materials available for sale at Chris Cohen's www.thebeerscholar.com and they quickly became my primary study materials, especially Cohen's annotated Certified Cicerone® outline.

My New Year's Resolution  will be to post more here, friends. The wide world of beer brings me a lot of joy and I should share more of it.

​Cheers!

Sounds like an exciting adventure, Scott! I would love to do some sensory training with you and am happy to offer my thoughts and learnings from the BJCP exam. Sarah said she'll pour the samples!
