Why Short Brews?

Beer is tasty. Beer is one of the oldest types of alcohol. Beer is dark and malty, light and crisp, juicy and hoppy, and so much more.

Beer is also fun. Maybe you’re just getting your feet wet in a puddle of beer. Maybe you’ve been drinking beer for so long that your favorite craft brewery named a beer after you. Regardless of your beer experience, you should always have a place to enjoy the fun side of beer.

If you share my passion for beer, then you’ve come to the right place.

Short Brews is a place where I explore the fascinating blend of science, culture, and fun that is beer. From the history of beer to modern beer styles, Short Brews covers pretty much everything.

Cheers!
