Well that’s something nice to get in the mail on Saturday ;-p

To all the creators, innovators, style-pushing alchemists, and artist who make the modern American beer scene what it is today. To all the energy, time, money, and sweat equity that goes into every can, bottle, and keg. To every brewer, marketer, salesperson, taproom employee, lawyer, and builder that works in the beer business because they love great beer. To all of you, we say thanks. There’s a huge difference between a product crafted with love and good intentions and one that’s not...even if you can’t see it on the label. #thursdaywisdom #craftbeer #njbeer

Ryan Krill - Founder of @capemaybrewco at the southern tip of New Jersey. Now 82 employees strong, Cape May Brewing is a great example of a brewery that has gone deep in their home state. Self-distributed to a majority of the counties in NJ, their beer is rock solid and they are undergoing another expansion to meet demand. Love a great NJ success story like this.

Dirty streets of St. Louis —- Dirty(er?) streets of NYC. What’s going on at @schlaflybeer these days? They’ve got this fresh IPL on tap, but I’d love to hear some more news from the locals in MO if you got something for me.

Take us back to #charleston please. Beaches, boats, great food, and that southern charm we just can’t find in NYC.

Look who made an appearance on the dirty streets of Manhattan...one of the hottest breweries in the northwest right now. I’ve never (not hyperbole) had a bad beer from @pfriembeer, and for good reason. They’ve been dialed in for the past few years and their beers possess a rare combination of subtlety and assertive clarity. Thanks to their team for sending us some fantastic beermail this week.

Zach Mack (@zmack) - Owner of @abcbeerco in Manhattan, Certified Cicerone, consummate beer industry fan, and incredibly good Karaoke artist on top of all that. Zach’s an avid traveler and storyteller, still finding time to write about beer for publications like @thrillist while running his bar. It’s a great place to belly up to the bar for a pint if you’re kicking around Avenue C in NYC. #nycbeer #craftbeer #beerindustry

Guys... @palmettobrewing has a freaking peanut butter and jelly beer. It tastes like it too. For some reason I love it. #scbeer #craftbeer

Svend Lindbaek (right) and Head Brewer Robbie Wendeborn of @svendale in Brooklyn, NY - Soon to open a taproom space IN Brooklyn, these guys are making some very good lagers and ales for the good people of NYC. Svend was a longtime home brewer who finally realized his dream this past year. #nycbeer #craftbeer

Couldn’t resist sharing a shot from the lawn of the United Nations HQ in NYC. It was one zillion degrees that evening and the @guinnessus pints were delicious. #guinnessbreweryambassador #pints #greatbeer

It’s already 2000% humidity in NYC and I just want to go back to the awesome @revelrybrewing roofdeck and drink alllllll the witbier. #summerisbrutal #craftbeer #charleston

Kate Fischer (@k8fisch) - Marketing and Social Media for @palmettobrewing in Charleston, SC. Charleston’s growing local beer community has really blossomed in the past couple years, thanks to pioneers like Palmetto Brewing, who is South Carolina’s oldest craft brewer, getting their start in 1993. Their recent acquisition by @catawbabeer is obvious in the major expansion happening at the brewery right now. Who’s got a few SC beer stories to share?

Charleston is such a smorgasbord of modern culture and history. The beer scene is growing up nicely however...shot from the roof deck of @revelrybrewing on a hooooot Sunday afternoon in the low country. Y’all been to Charleston before?

When in Charleston, one apparently must check out @edmundsoast and drink their peanut butter and jelly beer. We did, and it was a total trip. It actually tastes likes a PBJ...somehow. Also, kudos to them for having the only fresh keg of Coniston Bluebird Bitter I’ve ever seen this side of the pond. #craftbeer

Matt Allyn (@mdallyn) - Features Director at @runnersworldmag and @bicyclingmag, as well as consummate beer guy and #kellerbier ambassador (he just loves them a lot). Matt has been writing about beer for a long time, and drinking it for even longer. He walks around with a fresh @fifthhammerbeer IPA and a wooden hammer at all times, just in case.

Jordan Faris (@jordan_faris)- Market Manager at @duvelusa here in NYC. She’s been in the business a long time and knows her stuff. Duvel has done a great job of maintaining the individual cultures of their brewery acquisitions and folks like Jordan are keeping it strong. #craftbeer #belgianbeer

These gents from The Brewer’s Table (@thebrewerstableaustin) have a great business brewing down in Austin, TX. Great beer is, at its heart, a culinary product. They’re looking to shed some light on the relationship between food and beer in new and exciting ways. That’s head brewer Drew Durish on the left, executive chef Zach Hunter on the right, and founder Jake Maddux front and center. We’ve all tried so hard to put beer on equal footing with wine at the table over the years, and this is great to see. Go eat there if you’re in Austin.

Steven Pauwels - Brewmaster at Boulevard Brewing Company (@boulevard_beer) in Kansas City, MO. A native Belgian, Steven continues to absolutely crush it for them, and Boulevard continues to make pretty spectacular beer. Tank 7 bath anyone? #kansascity #craftbeer

Phil Markowski - Brewmaster and Founder of @tworoadsbrewing in Stratford, CT. He’s a thought leader in the beer industry, a published author (literally wrote the book on farmhouse ales), and a nice guy to boot. #beerindustry #craftbeer #ctbeer

Vermont is #crushingit, like usual. @switchbackbeer sent us these smoky little rascals as part of their Flynn on Fire series. All are made with smoked malt, like a traditional rauchbier, but with their own twist. Keep it coming! #vermont #vtbeer
