Since I have been experimenting with different beers for the last few years and I've really learned a lot. I've learned that it's important to drink craft beers because when you do you are supporting small companies that generally care for their employees.
It's also important to drink craft beer because it's delicious, unique and there are a million varieties and styles to experience out there.
Please feel free to submit your beer photos and review to I Love Craft Beer. Have a question for me? Please ask, I'd be happy to discuss anything related to craft beer!

Brewing Up A Business by Sam Calagione
A Few Facts about Dogfish Head & the founder Sam Calagione that I learned while reading this great book:
- The founder Sam designed the Dogfish Head logo
- Sam’s wife Mariah runs the Social Networking side of the business
- Sam designed (carved) the original fish-shaped tap pulls that you see replicas of at bars today
- Dogfish Head made 30 different beers in their first year
- When Sam decided to open he opened as a Brew Pub not a Brewery so they could fall back on the food sales if the beer wasn’t a hit … the beer was a hit by the way
