Welcome to the Real Beer Page. Our objective is to provide you with a Hypertexted, virtual brew-tour of Microbreweries and provide you with a lot of information that you can use along the way.
We created this page because: we thought it was a no-brainer for the www audience (21-54 year olds -- although we know a lot of our fraternal order of craft-brew enthusiasts are older); we thought it was ideal for the format -- brewtours, like surfing, are perfect for the WWW; and because we thought it would be awesome to combine all the things we love -- computing, design, writing, system analysis, and, of course, quality beer.
We believe that providing value to an audience will bring them back with their friends. Most of the Microbrewers we've met feel the same way. For the sake of value, we've tried to make our images as small as possible (you always walk the line between effective and efficient communications), to leverage cached images, and to omit gratuitous graphics. As you read this, the first graphic may still be loading. Bear with us, we think you will find that the slow-load graphic pays off the Brew Touring metaphor. On a Brew Tour you learn a lot about the breweries, their personalities, and philosophies about brewing. You also get to meet some new people and trade information. That's what this area is all about.
- Brew Tour: Locate Microbreweries near you, and build your own brew tour. As we go along we will add information from all across the states and around the world. You can even update our database if your browser supports forms. To locate Canadian breweries visit our Canadian Beer Index
- Brew Travels: Following our brew-tour metaphor, this resource will get you there and back in one piece. We're also putting up pages of the breweries we've visited in the last six months. We have over 3000 pictures and hundreds of stories to tell. Stay tuned.
- Links: Links to other great work about the subject we love.
- Brew 'Zines: Online Brewspapers with frequently updated news about events, contests, openings, closings and noteworthy items in the world of Microbrewing.
- Notes: A content-rich area with information, tidbits, gossip and scholarly works about Real Beer.
- Events: Festivals and the like, such as The Great American Beer Festival (GABF).
- Patrons: Meet regulars to these parts.
- Merchandise: Order products directly from the Microbrewers. Great T-Shirts, Caps and other brew-collectibles. Ideal for gifts or for yourself. Check out our new pages for BrewTees, featuring over 50 brew tees from across the U.S.
- Breweries: Here are the breweries we have online. There are many more in the works.
- Games: Games people play, submitted by folks like you.
- Burp Me: It's probably just what it sounds like. Have a gas touring this way, but try to stay down-wind.
- Authors: Learn about the guys behind the Real Beer Page, as well as the leading beer authors such as Gregg Smith, Ben Myers, Donald S. Gosselin and Steve Beaumont
