This is me, having a pint at my favorite beerspot, Moe's Tavern.
While not new to writing, or to beer, I am relatively new to blogging (and unfamiliar with the concept of “free time”).
I started this blog after realizing I wanted to combine my professional and personal interests in some, semi-productive way. So I started From This Pint On in February 2010… though the idea was in development for well over a year before that.
I’m still figuring out the balance between the time I spend appreciating beer (all my time) and the time I have to express that appreciation in writing (much less).
I will post as frequently as I can, with my main focus being on trips I’ve taken to explore various brewpubs, with other bits thrown in such as write-ups on events or bars I like (“Bonus Pints”), pictures I took (“Pint Pics“), articles I read and liked (“Press Pints“), quotes and sayings (“Talking Pints“), etc… can you tell I like puns? I do, almost as much as I do beer and food.
Beer is fun, and so is sharing it. That’s why I’m doing this. I definitely welcome your recommendations of beers to try, places to go, articles of interest, or events to check out… send me an email!
Drink curiously,
Alison

What?! I had you figured as a very chubby middle-aged man after reading 12 sips of Christmas! How can you love beer and food and stay so thin? I love beer, too, but have given it up this year (starting last June) to lose weight. 😦 I might have to try the Samuel Adams Cranberry Lambic this month when my husband and I celebrate our 23rd Anniversary.
Like your easy-reading writing style.

Haha! thank you! It’s good to have healthy goals, I get that too (I have a press pint about that, actually: https://fromthispinton.com/2010/09/28/press-pint-sobering-revelation/)
One option is to do tastings, small samples, but you still get to enjoy beers… my friends and I have been doing a monthly beer club (https://fromthispinton.com/2010/09/22/q-whats-black-and-white-and-red-all-over-beer-tasting/), though follow-up full pours happen, too.
