Welcome to American Dude, American Brews. I'm your typical American guy; I love beer. I've also been an avid writer for years, so this blog was in a sense inevitable. I will be posting reviews on beers, and occasionally a brewery or brewpub general, all of which will be home grown here in America. Now if you're wondering, "Why write a blog about beer?" I have three simple answers for you.

1. "Writing is like prostitution. First you do it for love, then for a few close friends, and then for money," William Faulkner.

2. "Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy," Benjamin Franklin.

3. "Write drunk; edit sober," Ernest Hemingway.

And with that I'm going to crack another Founders All Day IPA and ponder my first beer to review.
