Maryland Beer Journal & Atlas
Beer Across The Free State
Maryland Beer Journal & Atlas (MBJA) — Our purpose is in our name — only Maryland, only beer. We tell the stories of the people and places that make Maryland beer unique. Maryland traverses many landscapes, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Appalachian Mountains, Baltimore, Chesapeake Bay, historic small towns, and all points in between. And the beer is as diverse as the landscapes.
Anchor Christmas Ale: 2019
While beer styles keep evolving and expanding, there is much to be said for continuing a thing over the course of many years. The Anchor Christmas Ale is now on its 45-year iteration - always a new beer, a new tree on the label, yet tradition.
These are a few of my favorite things
While many beers are available year round, there are many beers that are only available during certain times of year. I'm glad there are. These are the special bottles that have seasons and tradition. These build on a sense of expectation — like a child’s Christmas morning only for adults, with anticipation and excitement.
