About

Welcome to Hops and Thoughts!

What the f*** am I supposed to write here?

Like many English majors who went to school for seven years – and yes I know that makes me an ipso facto doctor by some standards – I found myself lost. I dreamt of writing the next great American novel, but have yet to take any of the necessary steps to accomplish this goal. You know, like actually writing.

I was fortunate to find a job where I was able to hone my writing skills and learn more about digital marketing, but it was just not enough. In an effort to improve my mental health during the dark days of the global pandemic and with no small amount of poking and prodding from family and friends, the idea for Hops and Thoughts was born and here we are.

Hops and Thoughts is a place for me to put my creative juices to work – writing what I want, when I want – and sharing it with all of you. I love beer as you may have guessed by the title and artwork, but the possibilities are endless for this admittedly-amateur blog operation – beer, whiskey, sports, fantasy football, food, video games, the meaning of life, and much more. You never know what my beer-fueled ramblings might gravitate to next.

Embark on this literary adventure with me and let’s see where we end up!
