I moved away from FYB (fizzy yellow beer) shortly after the turn of the century. I started checking out foreign beers and drifted away from common lagers and pilsners towards ales and stouts. I found that sipping one or two strong, flavorful ales was more enjoyable than slurping down a six-pack of FYB just because it was cheap and cold. The craft beer boom accelerated the move with a flood of unique and interesting beers that changed beer drinking from a habit to an adventure. One of the bright points in the galaxy of beers was the selection offered by The Bruery. Their beers were esoteric, expensive and worth every penny. They have a membership that allows access to limited releases, and the kids enrolled me for my birthday. The welcome gift box is awesome.
