Wine Bloggers for Beer!

I have been into wine for a fair while now, but I have been into beer for longer. I think micro-brewed beers offer an incredible range of flavours and pairing possibilities that should make any wine drinker go brew-happy.

I think sometimes us wine afficionados can get caught up in our little-big world of wine appreciation and obsession. However, I also think that given wine drinkers' appreciation for the new, for small batches, for unique flavours, for amazing pairing possibilities, and for craft products, I am convinced many wine lovers could find a second love in craft beer.

Thus, I think it would be a great tradition to start up a monthly event where wine bloggers everywhere take a moment out of their busy wine drinking schedules to seek out and write about a micro-brewed beer. You might be amazed what you discover.

If anyone one else is interested in making this a tradition, please post in the comments and maybe we can get something going. I think it would be great to expose the world of wine drinkers to the equally fascinating world of artfully brewed craft beer.

Since American Craft Beer Week is coming up between May 11-17th, I propose that week for the inaugural Wine Bloggers for Beer event. Post a beer review on your wine blog during that week and send the link to me. I will write up the entries. Hopefully I can get more than just me to participate!
