Our Portland Road Trip Report

When we first began beer traveling 18 years ago, it was mostly by car.
From the San Francisco Bay Area, many great beer destinations were
reachable in a few hours. For the trip to our ninth Oregon Brewers
Festival, we thought it would be fun to hark back to those earlier
times. We would drive to Portland, visiting breweries along I-5 on the
way up and back. The only difference from those early days was the drive
wouldn't be a few hours, but thirteen.

We added 10 new breweries on the tri… Continue

Our Germany & Czech Republic Trip Report

We returned to Germany for the tenth time to watch the World Cup. It had

sporting event in Germany. Arriving on the last day of group play for
both the United States and Germany, we embraced the German's passion for
the 'beautiful game.'



On our 12 day trip, we visited two new cities, Leipzig and Dresden, and
revisited Berlin and Prague, two cities that we first experienced in
2001. Our Irish friends joined us in Berlin t… Continue

New beergeek.TV Episode - A World Beyond ORD

A World Beyond ORD” is the latest episode of One Pint at a Time.



We knew Chicago was a good beer town. We just hadn’t made it there yet. Lucky for us, opportunity knocked when our friends and fellow beer travelers Matt and Michelle asked us to meet them in the Windy City for a

long weekend.



Two and half days gave us just enough time to get a taste of the Greater Chicago beer scene. We visited a… Continue

We keep a mental list of U.S. beer destinations that we'd like to experience. Sitting on top of that list for many years was Chicago. We knew it was a great beer town with a number of good breweries and beer bars, but we'd never been there besides l…

Thanks so much for adding those vidoes - they are great fun to watch and some great content for people to view. This platform is always evolving so we may be able to handle those videos in the future - I will keep you posted. For now, thanks for the YouTube ones.

Hey I was just watching some of your shows, great stuff! If you ever want to post old ones or however you want to do it - to promote your site - we'd be very thrilled to have them in Democracy's Drink's video section. It could be a great way for people to discover your site when browsing that portion of this site. Either way I will be back by beergeek.TV very soon, cheers!
