Building a Better Beer Resume

This is not an employment venture, but a personal journey. The last couple of years I've had much less time for my beloved hobbies because of "real life". I've been looking for a way to have a little fun in my spare time that doesn't require a commitment. But some days even the little hobbies are more work than fun.

Then last week it occurred to me that maybe it isn't a hobby I'm looking for, but just an interest. Something that can take lots of time or no time at all. And as I was drinking a beer at the time, I thought that maybe I had my solution in hand.

I haven't always been a beer drinker, but it's been growing on me. I enjoy them, but I can't say I know much about beer. I like darker beers, reds, and hoppy beers. I usually don't care for light beers (except occassionally on a whim), but beyond that I can't claim to have much beer experience or knowledge. So I have decided to broaden my beerizons. I don't know what that's going to entail. But I think trying new beers, including ones that I suspect I might not care for, is going to be a start. Which is perfect. No commitment. Little time. I can get it anywhere. I can enjoy it just about anywhere (besides work). And they make me smile.

So here's to to trying new things!
