Jeff Krenner

Forum Name: Tip Top
About Me: I've been drinking craft beer for most of the time that I have been drinking. I've run the typical growth pattern of a craft beer drinker, developing a taste for more and more styles and flavors, but I'm still a hop-head at heart.
I do the news blogs here, so if you have anything you think I should write about, please contact me.
Favorite Beer Style: Currently, IPA, changes by the season some, but I tend to have a good IPA around to session.
Favorite Beer: I find it nearly impossible to pick just one, but the one beer that I crave more than any other is Surly's Bourbon One. Of course, I'm lucky to have an opportunity to taste some once a year.

About Me: I officially list myself as a Beer Geek, which to me means there is a time and a place for EVERY beer (per Westside Threat's appropriate definition). I like good beer, good beer people, good beer food and good beer places. Luckily, in Chicago we have all of the above.
Favorite Beer Style: American Double IPA
Favorite Beer: Three Floyds Dreadnaught

About Me: Computer / Beer Knurd. I have been homebrewing for a couple of years and had always been into trying new beers. Once I got hooked up with thebeerspot, it married two of my favorite things, building a site I believe in and drinking awesome beer. Thanks to all the people that have sent/traded great beer for me to try.
Favorite Beer Style: Gotta be an IPA, my tastes change with the season, but I can always go back to a solid IPA.
Favorite Beer: I have to go with my hometown favorite, Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout here
