Having gone through the process of buying (and recently moving into) a home, I’ve been thinking quite a bit about maturity, responsibility, and growing up. I feel that all of us, as beer geeks, are coming of age right now, and that all of our changing palates and preferences are poised to make the craft beer scene more open and accessible than ever before.

Mrs. Beermonger and I are moving into a new home this weekend, and it has completely taken over our lives. We’ve always heard of the “joys of homeownership,” but we were blindsided by the sheer amount of work that needed to be put into the place before we officially move in.
Looking for a new home? If you can brave the heat, there are almost two dozen open houses for you to choose from in Arlington this weekend.

I want to address something today that has always been an issue in the craft beer community and is only going to become bigger as more people come into the fold: rare beers and trying to acquire them.
“Real estate cannot be lost or stolen, nor can it be carried away,” goes the quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt. “Purchased with common sense, paid for in full, and managed with reasonable care, it is about the safest investment in the world.”
If you’re looking to heed the 32nd president’s wisdom, there are at least 14 open houses for you to choose from in Arlington this weekend.
Forecasters are calling for another warm, sunny weekend — making it a perfect time to do some house hunting or condo shopping. To that end, more than two dozen open houses are scheduled in Arlington this weekend.

This past weekend’s SAVOR craft beer and food experience was just what I needed. As I mentioned last week, I had only attended the first SAVOR event and was hoping to see for myself how far it had come in the past few years. The Saturday night session I attended was rife with great people, great food, and some very cool beers and breweries from all over the country. I think everyone who is into beer should make time every now and then to attend an event such as SAVOR: something with a bit more focus than the standard beer fest, that can introduce you to new beers and breweries that maybe you’d never know about otherwise.

You may have noticed an unusually high number of special beer-themed events happening around the area this week. Well, you can thank SAVOR for that. SAVOR is a yearly festival run by the Brewer’s Association, a trade association representing the interests of craft breweries. SAVOR features craft breweries from all over America (many of whom aren’t available in our area yet) and focuses on pairing craft beer and food. Over the past few years, SAVOR has quickly become one of the can’t-miss events on the beer geek’s calendar.
With sunny skies and warm temperatures, this should be a good weekend for house shopping. If you’re on the hunt for a home in Arlington, you’ll have at least 11 open houses to choose from this weekend.
