Page 4 November Edition Seven Lakes News Craft Beer Scene king. Pilsners tend to be very popular, too; and recently there are more and more people asking for sours and fruit varieties on draft. Today’s craft beer scene is overwhelming. Even for those with a grasp on hop varieties and local breweries, combing through a tap list can induce decision paralysis. But if there’s one thing that should guide an order, it’s freshness. Draft beer has long been heralded as the best option, whether for mouthfeel, pressure control or a foamy head. Now that so many craft breweries are choosing cans over bottles and kegs, is draft still considered “better?” The answer, it turns out, isn’t so clear cut. Style — specifically when it relates to a beer’s hop content — influences the shelf life of a beer, as does packaging. Bobbie Atkins, representative with R&D Brewing/Bull Durham Beer Co a local craft beer brewery explains: Is draft beer always better? Draft beer is definitely better than bottled, but canned can be better than draft. It depends. If you look at trends, locally and nationally, most breweries are moving to canning beers. What that allows for is a proper seal. Even in a glass bottle, oxygen can leak in. So flushing cans with carbon dioxide and sealing a beer shut keeps it fresher for longer. Cans also prevent light from getting in, which can be an issue with bottles, even brown bottles. Light and oxygen are the enemies of beer. Draft beers usually move faster, and if you’re replacing kegs more often, that usually means fresher beer. So, in terms of quality and turnover, it’s draft, then cans, then bottles. Are there particular styles that move faster than others? IPA‘s are Generally speaking, for an IPA, you want to consume it within a month of it being brewed. Hop quality begins to fade after about 30 days. Are local beers usually indicative of freshness? Yes and no. Local beer has a tendency to be more fresh, but it has to be good beer to be fresh enough that you’ll go through kegs of it. What sort of questions should someone ask a bartender in order to get the best or freshest beer? Let the bartender know what type of beer you like. Knowing what kind of beer you like gives the bartender a starting point, even if it’s Heineken or Guinness. Any good beer bar will allow you a few tastes before deciding on a beer. According to Bobbie Atkins, choosing the right bar is also really important. You want a staff that’s casual and approachable and knowledgeable, not snooty. In Seven Lakes these craft beers can be found at the Lakehouse, Shell Friendly Mart and the Sandhills Winery. The Resolution beer the golfers beer can be found locally at Foxfire Resort and Pinewild CC. Their Flagship beer “Seven Saturdays“ an IPA @6.8 ABV you can always enjoy at “Seven Lakes.“ The Flagship beer won a Silver Medal at the US Open Beer Championship.

The Seven Lakes News has arranged with the program to offer numerous drop off locations throughout Moore County. Our family has been involved with this program since the late 1980’s. The program began as a Los Angeles charitable effort in 1947. Major Bill Hendricks, USMCR, was inspired by his wife Diane when she tried to donate a homemade Rag-gedy Ann doll to a needy child but couldn’t find any organization to do so. At her suggestion he gathered a NOVEMBER 9th group of local local Marine reservists, including Lieutenant Colonel John Hampton, who coordinated and collected some 5,000 toys for local children that year from collection bins placed outside of Warner Bros. movie theaters. Their efforts were so successful that, in 1948, Toys for Tots was launched as a national campaign. Hendrix used his position as director of Public Relations for Warner Brothers Studio to enlist celebrity support, as well as have Walt Disney Studios design the red toy train logo. The new toys collected are redistributed within each county to ensure they are kept within the local community, said Gunnery Sgt. Robert Patterson, Toys for Tots representative. The program is designed for the children to have something to open on “Christmas,” Patterson said. “If the family is struggling financially or lost their jobs, we help them with toys, and our homeless and foster chil-dren are not forgotten either.” Donating money or toys can make the holiday season for children a very happy time. “All toy donations will go to Moore County kids with families in need this Christmas Season.
