We hope that you will take
as much pleasure in browsing our ever-growing selection as we have had
creating and maintaining it. Micro and craft breweries have
taken the country by storm, and we at Calvert have been supporting this
movement since day one. Come for the Budweiser, leave with
the Chimay!

If you receive Calvert's
weekly E-Mail
Newsletter then you're probably familiar with the section "Brews News".
This is the part of the newsletter in which Gordon and I
(Chris)
review new beers, and accompany tasting notes along with our thoughts.
So I thought that it would be a great idea to post a
collection
of our reviews on this site. I will updating the reviews
weekly,
as we continue to taste many of the new and exciting beers that we
receive!

2008 is going to be
another stellar year for beer! With the growth in popularity,
more and
more Micro-brews from around the nation are making their way to
Maryland. The only trouble that we (beer lovers) are facing
is the
steadily increasing price of our favorite brews. The cost of
hops is
sky-rocketing because farmers are choosing to grow more profitable bulk
crops such as corn and wheat. Transportation costs are
increasing
because of the price of fuel and import taxes. These
variables
culminate into one sad, simple fact that we all must face.
The price
of good beer is going up! Well... All I know is
that I won't be
trading down to something less enjoyable to save a buck.
Premium beer
is worth the premium price!
