Beer Review Dude

To the readers of The Weekly Cigar,

It saddens me to say that this post marks the end of my cigar blogging career. Over the past months, I have become more and more involved in the cigar industry, and feel as though this involvement could lead many to question my objectivity. I now work in the cigar industry, and think that this retirement from cigar blogging is the best choice for all parties involved.

I will continue to blog, but will change my focus to the craft beer world. I love craft beer, and have wanted to review more beer for quite some time. The new site will be called Beer Review Dude, and will be located at http://beerreviewdude.com. I encourage all of you craft beer lovers out there to continue to visit the site. I will be posting something new almost every day, and hope to build this site into a great craft beer resource.

For all of the cigar lovers, I will continue to host the numerous reviews, interviews, and news items available on this site now. I still want this site to be a resource for the cigar smoker.

Is this the last mention of cigars on this site? No. I will continue to enjoy fine cigars, but feel as though it wouldn’t be right to continue posting about cigars at this time.

Lastly, I’d like to thank all of the people who have supported this blog, including the fans, the manufacturers, and anyone else who has helped me in any way. Without you, none of this would have been possible.

Well, I think that’s it. Thanks again and, until next time, happy smoking…

Hey guys,

I came across a very cool pictorial today about the history and make-up of beer. As many of you know, I love beer, and thought this “comic” about beer was very informative. The comic was drawn by someone named The Oatmeal, whose website is located here. All credit goes to him for this comic, but I thought it’d be cool to repost it. Anyway, hope you enjoy, and until next time, happy drinking!

I just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! I’m back home from my honeymoon enjoying the day with my extended family. I’ll also be smoking a few fine cigars after the big meal. Are any of you planning on having cigars on Thanksgiving? If so, anything special or just the usual? Anyway, have a great day and, until next time, happy smoking!
