Overall, I have few complaints. It's interesting and one of the only beer-centric calendars I've found, period. The reason for my 4 star review is that some of the trivia is fairly common knowledge to those who have an interest in beer, though most of it is at least minimally interesting, and the beer reviews thus far (I haven't looked ahead and am reviewing it on Tuesday February 23rd) are pretty heavily focused on Colorado based breweries with descriptions that you can tell are meant more for the masses than a true beer geek. On the whole though, it's really not that bad. The only thing I would suggest for a future calendar would be to try to focus on beers that are fairly readily available throughout most of the US. Most of the CO beers that have been reviewed thus far I've never seen on the east coast. Other than that, I really enjoy it and would buy one again for next year!
This calendar has made getting to work every morning a little less horrible. Most days have a different beer, but occasionally they have recipes, quotes from notable figures that include beer, and even random facts like a beer-drinking bear during WWII. Each beer has a great blurb about the brewery and the color, flavor, and ABV of the drink. It has had a great selection of beers, some of which I know and the rest that I have on my list as must-tries. If you're a bit of a beer snob like I am, this is definitely the calendar for you.
This calendar was too narrowly focused on CO. beers. I know CO has many great craft breweries however, it seems more than half the calendar was dedicated to them, with a scattering of beers from other geographic regions. I may be bias because I am from VT, but to garnish only three mentions, 2 for beer and one for cider, that aren't even representative of our craft breweries, seems weak. Not mentioned were Hill Farmstead Brewery, #1 brewer in the world or Alchemist Heady Topper with a 100 Rating on Beer Advocate. These are a more accurate representation of Beers. The two VT beers mentioned are from Magic Hat which is owned by a Costa Rican co. Florida Ice and Farm Co. I did enjoy some of the facts, and reading about some of the beers. I think it could have easily been a 5 star rating if it would broaden it's geographic scope.
Good so far. Too many IPAs for me but interesting factoids. Will see how the year goes.
I get this calendar every year. It's a great conversation piece for the office.
Such a fun thing. My husband loves it.He does say however, that they seem to favor Colorado breweries. :) (This is not a problem for him because he loves Colorado beer)
