LADY JAY FINDS BEER IN ANOTHER WAREHOUSE
Lady Jay meets the Kernel.
Author: Lady Jay
I believe in variety and selection--in beer, in science, and in life (the tiny sliver that doesn't overlap with beer or science).
AN ALEHEAD ABROAD
Bags packed, Lady Jay leaves her crude, provincial homeland, where the sun never stops shining and ice-cold lager flows (and drinks) like water to quench the burn of mountains of extra-spicy chicken wings consumed in front of seemingly-endless football. How will she survive in ye olde London-town? How many pints of warm ale, pots of […]
LADY JAY ASKS “THERE’S A WHAT? WHERE?”
That was my reaction on a recent trip to Tampa with Herr Hordeum to visit his progenitors. The “what” was a Cigar City brewpub. The “where” was Airside Terminal C of the Tampa International Airport.

LADY JAY AND THE CURE FOR WHAT ALES YOU
Close your eyes (Figuratively. Keep reading.). It’s quiet. You’re warm, relaxed, floating. You take a slow, deep breath, and the scents of hops and yeast envelop you, a soothing balm to ease the pains of your hectic lifestyle. You open your eyes, and realize that you are soaking in a tub of warm, aromatic beer. […]
