		<title>Quick Tasting Notes: Acme California Pale Ale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A light, malty ale from North Coast Brewing Co. Lots of forward caramel and bread notes. Not much of a hop bite. Nice for a summer patio beer (perfect for the Argonaut patio!). And mad props to the folks at the Argonaut. We were so happy to see people out on the patio and upstairs [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quick tasting notes: Meta Beer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At Ethiopic on H st. Waiting at the bar for one of the cool little window tables. I ordered a Meta. Very malty. Reminds me of Tusker. Almost like a malt liquor in flavor. Tons of caramel with a little pilsner bitterness. I hope it goes well with the spicy Wot beef I just ordered.]]></description>

		<title>Quick tasting notes: NOLA Hopitoulas IPA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What a different beer! Definitely a West Coast IPA. Lots of grapefruit and lemon in the nose. A little malt and toast on the palate which is then totally taken over by the crisp hop bite. That fabulous bitterness hangs around for a good two or three minutes after (a beer afterglow?). Many thanks to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quick tasting notes: NOLA Blonde</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I walked to the edge of the Garden District to find The Avenue pub recommended by beer geeks in the area. Sticking local I ordered the blonde from NOLA brewing company, a relatively new brewery in the New Orleans. It&#8217;s a very pretty beer: orange amber like the lollipops you got at the bank when [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guest Post: St. Peter&#8217;s Sorghum Beer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My Hoppy Place gifted Real Food Fans with a bottle of sorghum beer originally recommended by the Beermudgeon. While selecting the beers for our tasting (the write up is in the queue), we asked the Beermudgeon if he&#8217;d ever had any good gluten-free beers and he happily recommended St. Peters Sorghum Beer from the UK.

		<title>Lagunitas Hop Stoopid Ale</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is one of my favorite new ales. I really love how balanced the hops and malt are. It drinks smooth while still having enough hoppy-ness to make my bitter-beer-lovin&#8217;-self very happy. I apologize for the terrible picture, I think I had already had a few and I took it with my new blackberry camera [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flying Dog Raging Bitch 4</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was another brew premiered at the &#8220;Bitch Session&#8221; at Policy in DC. This was my beer! It is an American IPA that is made with Belgian yeast &#8211; very inventive! This was a typically hoppy beer that found both the fruit and the bitter of the hop in a balanced and tasty way. It [...]]]></description>
