Beer Quest!!!

So I’ve been meaning to blog about this for a while, but I’ve been kind of swamped (you know, jobless, but somehow still full of commitments) and so I’m finally getting to it today – just in time to promote the premiere episode in New York this weekend during New York’s Craft Beer Week.

First things first, if you’re going to be in New York on Sunday, September 20th, you should come out and see the Beer Quest Premiere at the Studio Square Beer Garden in Queens (full details at the bottom of the post).

Beer Quest, is the brainchild of Kieran Valla and my good friend Jonathan LaPearl, both young independent filmmakers with east and west coast sensibilities, and an obvious mutual love for great beer.

Beer Quest is a show that features the people behind the micro brews.  It’s part documentary, part comedy and part travel show and it strives to provide a rich cultural and geographical experience for viewers.  The show travels to various regions, exploring the history and landmarks of each location they visit, along with sampling all the local beers.  The premiere episode is a salute to NYC – featuring Brooklyn Brewery and Sixpoint Craft Ales among others.  Beer Quest is currently being marketed as a TV series, and this is your opportunity to get on board before everyone finds out about it.  Finally, this is your chance to be the guy that knows FIRST!  :)

Along with the premiere of Beer Quest there will be over 40 beers on tap, live music, and a raffle – I’m not sure you can go wrong.

My office website, that I have been slaving over for the past couple months, finally launched yesterday. 

It looks great, though because it was built in IWeb I have had a couple complaints (two so far) about functionality.  Please check it out if you get a chance (and feel free to let me know if YOU experience any technical difficulties). 

And most importantly, if you have a wealthy mother, grandfather, great aunt, nephew, boyfriend, boss, or whatever that needs a brilliant house built, please feel free to send them our way!

Heroes premiere tonight!

September 24, 2007 in premieres, television reviews | 1 comment

Heroes season premiere is tonight (9pm on NBC)…also it’s my brother’s birthday (happy birthday Scott!).

i’m sure i will have many thoughts about the season premiere tomorrow, so feel free to check in and see.

my pre-viewing Heroes thoughts pretty much boil down to excitement and apprehension.  the excitment bit is obvious i suppose, the apprehension comes from a general concern that the show cannot likely live up to the high bar it set for itself in the first season.  in the tradition of shows that start off and kind of blow your mind right off the bat and then can’t live up to the standards they’ve set for themselves (first season of any of the following could apply:  Alias; Lost; CSI; Grey’s Anatomy; and according to my officemates Desperate Housewives and The O.C. – which i have never seen – and would never admit to seeing).  there are a lot of shows out there that just can’t follow up their first act…i hope Heroes will not be one of them.

also, while overall i loved the show and thought they did a good job, there were occasional serious mis-steps.  the kind of dialogue or plot points (or deus ex machina) that i feel are warning signs in a show…of bad things to come.  let’s hope it’s not true here. 

below is a link to a teaser (posted on myspace last week).  Also, if you feel like freshening up on how the season ended you can watch the finale here.  if that’s not enough for you there are literally dozens of bits on you tube if you search for Heroes Premiere…from ads to 7 minute clips.

character i most hope will fall on a blade (and not be able to survive):  Ali Larter’s Niki Sanders. i’m so very sick of her and all her whining.

character i most hope will return in a blaze (or no blaze) of glory:  Christopher Eccleston’s Claude and my beloved Nathan Petrelli.
