Introduction to My Beer Blab

Who am I?
I am Katie. I love beer. I have always loved beer. I will always love beer. 

My Story:
Since I was a wee little one the taste of beer has been a delight to me, even if it was only sneaking a tiny taste of a watered down Coors Light. Whether you love it at first or hate it the chances are you probably had one night or two where you drank too much of it. I am writing this blog for two reasons: One, I am brushing up on my writing skills with a topic of passion and, two, I need some sort of journal reminding me of the beers I have tried and what I thought of them. My memory sucks. A synonym for suck is imbibe. My memory imbibes.

During my blogging I will often refer back to the Master's of Beer Description. I actually don't know if they hold such a high rank but this site was the first one to come up in my google search of "words to describe beer" so they win. This site will help me develop my beer vocabulary which up until now has consisted of "this is hoppy" or "this isn't hoppy". I kid you but I do enjoy a beer heavy in the hops. 

I will leave my first post with a brief mention of my current favorite beer, Blue Point Toasted Lager. This beer is crafted on Long Island. It's delicious. Buy it, taste it and enjoy it. I am going to drink some of it tomorrow and inform you of my thoughts on it because right now it's late, I have work in the AM, I am beerless and I am tired.
