Wow, the’re has been a lot of chatter on twitter and Google+ in the craft beer community today. But – I am not going to weigh in right now about a beer marketed specifically to women or people being specifically offended by a beer label. Nope. Today I’m going to talk about CHOCOLATE.
My first $5.00 donation arrived this weekend (thanks Matt R.!) and it made me realize that maybe there is hope, but that I’m going to have to work even harder for your support to attend this conference. So, as a complement to my fundraising efforts, I am also planning a “blog-a-thon” in which I will write a post every single day until I’ve received enough donations to attend the Beer Blogger’s conference.

In celebration of both the anniversary and American Craft Beer Week, I want to offer this “State of the Union” address. Where are we? Where have we come, and where is there still room to grow?
Today marks the beginning of American Craft Beer Week (ACBW) – a nationwide celebration of craft beer in the U.S. Sponsored by the Brewers Association, this looks to be the biggest ACBW yet, with events taking place in all fifty states. To celebrate, I will be posting new craft beer posts every day of the week (starting with today). Today’s feature is on the Declaration of Beer Independence.
