We’re throwing a curve ball this episode and bringing on two, COUNT ‘EM, TWO, guests. This one’s a gamebreaker! We toss a lateral hand-off at the blue line and fumble the goalie for a grand slam! Why the fuck are we making so many shitty sports references? Because this week we […]

Beer n’ Loathing at the Great American Beer Festival
I stood in the middle of what could only be described as a fire hazard. Hundreds of people shuffled around me, while thousands more milled and writhed within the several thousand acre space we had been confined to. All 13,000 of us had to have thanked our lucky stars that […]

Photography by Peter Storbridge I stood in the hot Colorado sun, surrounded by thousands of costumed people, as a young woman on stage divorced her car and married a bicycle. I wasn’t on drugs, I wasn’t hammered and I certainly wasn’t dreaming. This was real life in the middle of […]

Beer n’ Loathing in Aspen: Revisited
I stared down into the shot glass I emptied in my mouth. I was in a neon blue bomb shelter club surrounded by assholes with terrible haircuts and way too much moisturizer on their faces. I could feel the vomit creeping up my esophagus. Sambuca, although delicious, had just put […]

Beer n’ Loathing Denver Breweries: River North
