Craft brewers today are an innovative bunch. Some brewers are crafting beers with strange fruit, grain and herbal ingredients, beers aged for years rivaling distillers of whiskey or scotch, and using wild strains of yeast where the brewer has no idea up front which flavors she or he will get. But one of the craziest recent trends is the advent of "extreme beers", or beers brewed to have ...
Views of Paris At Night
I think the romance of Paris really comes out at night: The warm glow of monuments and street lights, pink skies against the eclectic architecture, the old versus the new. Though I don't always take great night photos (I'm working on this), we did haul our full-size tripod on this trip and for once actually used it in a few key spots (e.g. sunset at the Eiffel Tower, Louvre pyramid, Arc de ...
