I was over in Vermont in July, visiting breweries, meeting great people and drinking fantastic beers. I was there to research a piece on the place and its beers for the Daily Telegraph and it’s published today — so if you want to have a look at what I thought go here (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/foodandwineholidays/8080746/Vermont-beer-tour-brewed-in-the-USA.html). Amidst all the wonderful debates about beer styles that seemed to have simmered into life after this week’s British Guild of Beer Writers beer styles seminar (the latest is here (http://zythophile.wordpress.com/2010/10/23/michael-jackson-and-the-invention-of-beer-style/)), there seems to be a growing consensus that the American brewing zeitgeist is all about more and more beer styles and that perhaps it’s getting out of hand (to put it in my own mild way). That may be so, but I still believe that the US is one of the most exciting places on earth to drink beer (even though, just like hundreds of micros in the UK doesn’t guarantee 100% faultless beer, I did have a sort of anti-IBU epiphany after one DIPA that was all throat rasp and little else) and this article is my personal love letter to that belief.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3076725205410370436-4483332639216931297?l=maltworms.blogspot.com
