Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! Well, I’m just gonna let these pictures tell the story of yesterday. Until tomorrow, same blog channel…Scorp out! —“With a prominent position on historic Trade Street, we’re surrounded by a phenomenal community of innovative small businesses–restaurants, bars, music venues, and the downtown Arts District. It’s safe to say that this our kind of neighborhood.”…
Salutations™!! I was going to tell you that you should come and see me at my booth tomorrow for the Industry Hill Block Party that is happening on 9th Street. Well, I won’t be there. The rain or potential for said rain is keeping the outdoor booths and vendors from happening. The things that were…
Salutations™!! You know, Dear Reader, I have clout. That’s a funny word, “clout.” Not Klout, the social media analytics tool that measures your social media importance. I mean real clout. According to one dictionary’s definition, clout is “influence or power, especially in politics or business.” Now, I’m not bragging on that, that’s a heavy cross…
Salutations™!! I think I’ve talked about this already this week but The BCPF and I are going to be attending the Texas Pete Spirits of Summer festival. This would be weekend of the Salute! NC Wine Festival but that is no more. They have basically taken Salute! and the Texas Pete Culinary Arts Festival and…
Salutations™!! Over on The Man Who Ate the Town blog I just told tales of a Wise Man Tap Takeover. Read more about that HERE. I know this is kind of last minute but while the takeover will be all week, the special beer dinner is tonight, but it goes until 10, so get on…
Salutations™!! This week on The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast, Kelly and I discussed two popular downtown WSNC food/drink festivals merging, as well as a new drink menu and schedule of events for Reboot Arcade Bar. And, Wise Man Brewing will be doing another beer dinner/tap takeover (ish). You can listen to this week’s…
Salutations™!! I’ll admit I’m running out of uses of the word “wise” in the titles of these blogs. But, now that the Willows Bistro/Wise Man Beer dinner has come and gone, I can stop trying to be clever with it. Which brings me to this week’s piggyback. There was no The Man Who Ate the…
Salutations™!! So, The BCPF and I didn’t go to Underdog Records this weekend because we were up in the mountains with The Beer Dads crew, at least most of them. We were missing one couple that has become part of the family. That was a shame but we had a fantastic time up in Asheville….
Salutations™!! As The Beer Dads embark on our first actual “mini-vacation” with each other to the nether regions of Asheville, NC, this weekend, I wonder if that will be enough beer for us? I mean, Asheville is the beer capital of the east. Several major breweries from the mid-west and west coast have built their “eastern…
Salutations™!! Today on The Man Who Ate the Town Podcast, Kelly and I talked about Wise Man Brewing’s one year anniversary and the new menu that Finnigan’s Wake rolled out yesterday. Kelly and I want to be more than just a little podcast about menus and “on this day.” We want to talk about food…
