I’ve had these two @heliobasinbeer brews from Phoenix in my fridge for way too long. So it’s time to crack them open. The 602 Brew and the Chupacabra Logga are both delicious, flavorful, light beers that are perfect for the summer weather. And by the “summer weather” I mean the “68 degrees inside my shitty apartment” because I really hate going outside. #heliobasinbrewing

Just here for the @untappd badges.

I had a fantastic time out in California this weekend.....but man, does it feel good to be back home with my AZ beer fam. Even if it is literally 30-40 degrees hotter out here than in LA, I still love the hell out of this desert town. 🌵☀️😎😰

What a weekend! The @labeerweek Kickoff Fest was so much damn fun, I can’t believe this is the 10th year of it and that I’ve never been here before. I have a bunch of pictures of the awesome beer I had but I’m not gonna bother posting those. Because the fest would’ve been plenty of fun if I had been alone but it was so much better because of the great people I met. I got to hang out with @worstbeerblog, who is easily one of my top three favorite trolls. (It’s him and those fuckers in Lord of the Rings.) I also got to learn about the Latinx beer groups out in LA that are like my group of friends that get together for bottle shares but these people have group names and legit branding. Shoutout to my newest beer familia group, the #HopHeads. And, of course, thanks again to the coolest person in all of LA, @thesarahbennett, for introducing me to everybody at the fest. I’ll see all y’all again next year! #LABW10

My Cali adventure is off to a good start. (Swipe 👈🏽) Famed local journalist and all around great pal @thesarahbennett gave me a tour of her Long Beach hood for a bit. We hit @beachwoodbbq for some great beer and some mad meats. It was really nice to share some drinks with her while we reminisced about our mutual friend, Miguel Seis, who is now gone but who still lives on in our hearts. ❤️ After we took that first picture I realized my pocket square wasn’t showing so I made her take another one. Despite the fact that she was sharing the stage with a legit beer celebrity she was...not enthused. 🤪🤩😎🐯#LABW10

Prepping only the most important things for my weekend trip to California. This Saturday I’m gonna hit up the @LAbeerweek Kickoff Festival, which features about 90 independent breweries and over 250 unique beers. It’s gonna be a hell of a time. And before you say anything, I found those sports teams’ logos by just typing “Los Angeles” into the thing. I don’t know sports and don’t give a shit about whatever sports rivalries you may have. So save it. ‘Cause my team is beer. #LABW10 #LAbeer

The Tucson can game continues to be so strong right now. My friends over at @buttonbrewhouse have canned their first beer: a pre-prohibition style American Pilsner that was brewed in the same traditional style of beer that your oldass great-grandparents drank after they either won or lost the Civil War or World War 2 or whatever, I don’t know, I drink way too much to remember any white people history. What I do remember, though, is how delicious this Volstead Pilsner is. It proves that light beer doesn’t have to be the flavorless, watery macro shit you see in commercials all the time. Get your hands on these cans. Whether you’re drinking it by the pool or in a windowless speakeasy in a stranger’s basement that you may or may not have gotten locked in to because you stumbled into the wrong door while you were blasted drunk the Volstead Pilsner is a welcome addition to Arizona’s craft beer family. Salud! #Buttonbrewhouse

Here’s a bunch of pictures of my adventures with some of my favorite people this past weekend. (Swipe 👈🏽) So @65fordgirl and I got a sweet pic with @orkestamendoza after the amazing @casadecalexico show in Phoenix. We kept the party going at Melinda’s Alley, a speakeasy in a top secret location. 🤐 And I FINALLY made it out to @craftbeerhopstop on the north side of town along with @hxcpuertorican who is so goddamn Zen, he doesn’t even open his eyes, ever. That’s where I defiled one of the coolest bottle shops in town with my logo sticker and did my part to cover up a some of the Golden Road stickers that were put on there before the buyout, #corporatebeersucks. Then we ended up having a mini bottle share featuring a lot of awesome dark shit from @dark_sky_brewing, among others. Thanks to everybody for hanging out and showing me a great time. Y’all are the reason The Classy Alcoholic does what he does!
