  • Signature Cinn-City
    Advocates of Prohibition believed its passage in 1920 would usher in a new era of healthy living, family harmony and political integrity. In fact, the drinks kept flowing, and Prohibition fueled the growth of organized crime and political corruption. Speakeasies sprouted by the thousands, cultivating jazz music, dance crazes and the rise of the flappers – young women who embraced bold fashions and liberated behavior. Mobsters profited, while paid-off police and politicians looked the other way. The Underground at The Mob Museum is a living exhibition, encompassing the culture of Prohibition and evoking the grit and glamour of the Roaring ’20s. Raise a glass to the past, drink what they drank and remember – you were never here.

  • 10% Service Charge Belgian Beers Have Become Fashionable, Yet the Pleasures B They Offer Have Been Truly Explored by Only a Discerning Minority of Drinkers

The rule, never ask for "a beer" applies especially in Belgium. Such a request will bring forth a perfectly acceptable lager of a type, but one that could just as easily be found in many other countries. The great beers of Belgium are not its lagers. Its native brews are in other styles, and they offer an extraordinary variety, some so different from more conventional brews that at the initial encounter they are scarcely recognisable as beers. Yet they represent some of the oldest traditions of brewing in the Western world. No other country (even those with far more breweries) has among its native styles of beer such diversity, individuality, idiosyncrasy and colour. Nor does any other country present beers so beautifully. Belgian brewers often use wired and corked Champagne bottles, and serve each beer in its own shape of glass, ranging from flutes to snifters and chalices. It is something of a Belgian speciality to bottle beers with a sediment of live yeast, so that they can be laid down to mature. This technique is usually indicated on the label by the phrase "re-fermented in the bottle" (Refermentée en bouteille / Hergist in de fles ).

  • The Saison Savoring Society Special Summer Sampling Super Session” by Dave Perez and Mark Tumarkin, Two High Profile BJCP Judges in Florida
    Florida Farmhouse Special BREW This Special BREW was given as a tasting entitled “The Saison Savoring Society Special Summer Sampling Super Session” by Dave Perez and Mark Tumarkin, two high profile BJCP judges in Florida. From reading their commentary and descriptions, it is very obvious that it was fun AND educational. Special thanks to those guys for having fun while educating as well as sharing it with the rest of us so that we can do something similar. To aid to the educational aspect, comments gathered from the brewery and from other judges have been added (as indicated). Guidelines for a Special BREW: Description This is an adaptation of the normal BREW sessions of the CEP. There are basically two different types of special event BREWs that qualify. THIRD PARTY The first is for especially large regional competitions or courses organized by "third parties" to the BJCP. These include, but are not limited to AHA Nationals, MCAB and other competitions, National conferences or extended learning programs (e.g. Siebel, UC Davis, etc.) where there are many different seminars and brewing discussion sessions. These are typically advertised nationally and sponsored by private institutions. CREATIVE. In the second type we want to allow for the creativity of home brewers. These type of "Creative" special events are usually much more local and could include, but is by no means limited to, brewer led tastings, some pub crawls, triangle tasting sessions, detailed brewing sessions (e.g. teaching decoction), special meetings (e.g. tours of a malt house), etc. These events are typically club-sponsored extracurricular activities.
