I’ll be standing in line at PDX in around 12 hours, internally screaming at myself to stop judging everyone and relax a little so i don’t look sus. In order to wind down some of the remianing time, i’ve perched myself on a stool at Loyal Legion in Beaverton and ordered a HUB Velvet ESB….
Who is Jo?
I dunno While on a post-holiday shopping trip to the dreaded city center, I decided to calm my nerves after spending $xxx dollars on some boots with some drinky drinky. Von Ebert Brewing was right up the street, and since they focused on more sessionable beers, I knew I wouldn’t get in too much trouble…
LINE GOES UP
Inflation? Nah. Just greed. I just watched a segment produced by CNBC on YouTube about the ‘decline’ for ABInBev’s ‘fortunes’ as the drinks industry continues to evolve past mass-produced American lagers – aka ‘DOMESTIC’ beer. I like doing research this way because someone else has already done a lot of the legwork of compiling earnings…
People. Watching.

55,000 comments!*
*sigh If only. I had posted that pandemic freak-out and just left it, without considering the comments or anything, and didn’t check it for 2 years…oops. Well, sort of, if any of you out there have worked with wordpress you know it’s just an annoyance unless you really screwed up, because none of them ever…
The first entry of a new era
My main content will be about beer, mostly. Unless the auto stuff does well. But why not both? Here’s a breakdown of where I’m at today.
ROUGH CUTS
just making a living v.328 As much as I talk about this blog I haven’t done anything great for it in over 2 years. I shelved my panicked pre-pandemic post (much of which was more accurate than I’d have liked given the date I wrote it) and need to get something up here so…here it…
