New blog: Beer Editor

Posted by Noah Davis On January - 29 - 2010ADD COMMENTS

We’re very proud to introduce DRAFTMag.com’s newest blog: Beer Editor.

Written by our own Christopher Staten, DRAFT’s beer editor (well-named, huh?), the blog deals with all the comings and goings in the craft beer world. In his first post, Chris explains what’s coming:

Here at the Beer Editor’s blog, expect fresh, researched musings, interviews and news about craft breweries around the world. We’re going beyond the magazine, getting real close with the folks that hand-craft the brews you spend face-time with, and, on occasion, we’ll indulge the off-topic conversation that goes hand-in-hand with a round of pints. Discussing late hop additions and yeast strains is great, but so is me trying to convince you that ELO is not a guilty pleasure, but a legitimate, street-cred-worthy band best listened to at maximum decibels. We’ve got a crack team brainstorming regular weekly departments, and they’re going to be good. Stay tuned.

Welcome to the team.

On my 730th day, management created a beer editor blog

About that DRAFTMag.com redesign

Posted by Noah Davis On January - 4 - 20101 COMMENT

Over the weekend, you may have noticed a few changes around these parts. Thanks to the hard work of our tireless tech team (coding on a holiday!), DRAFTMag.com has itself a spiffy new look.

The design isn’t just fashionable, it’s also functional. We’ll be able to keep posts we want you to see in the spotlight for longer and highlight the best of our content. (Uh, not that it’s not all awesome, but you know…)

We’re still working out the kinks, so please poke around and tell us what you like, what you don’t like, and point out any bugs. We’ll fix them straightaway.

Now back to the regularly scheduled program.

Happy New Year’s from DRAFTMag.com

Posted by Noah Davis On December - 30 - 2009ADD COMMENTS

We’re sitting here on our couch, as we do nearly every afternoon, reflecting about the past year. It was our first full 12 months as editor of DRAFTMag.com, and the site’s grown in ways we could have never imagined. We’ll spare you the tearful retrospective, but it’s been a blast.

It couldn’t happen and would mean nothing without all of you faithful readers. For showing up and coming back, thanks from the bottom of our well-loved pint glass.

We’re working hard to make 2010 even better — including a redesign coming in the next few weeks, more features and videos, and better and faster beer news — but once in a while, it’s important to stop and smell the hops. Man, that’s glorious.

Enjoy the ball drop. Here’s to a fantastic 2010, filled with sights, sounds, and suds. And, of course, DRAFTMag.com.

Merry Christmas from DRAFTMag.com
