This is my personal website where I talk about all things beer.  I'll review good beers and places where you can find and enjoy good beer. I'll also document the various beer related travels I have made throughout Europe and the United States. 

It's also the home of the Bierstein Brewery, my personal home brewery.  I'll detail the brewery and my recipes.

What is a Bierstein?

Bierstein derives from the German words "Bier" (beer) and "Steinkrug" ('stone' + 'crock'). "Stein" is German for "stone". When made of glass, such mugs are called Glaskrug, Maßkrug, or simply Maß.
