Partner Spotlight: 1867 Bar

Posted by Brian Frederick on

Cheers, the Nebraska version. If you’re like me, you have a very specific idea of what a drinking establishment should be like. Pumping techno music, $15 dollar Bud Lights and Situation clones beating the beat up sounds terrible. Corporate bars with their generic designs, staff and feel are equally unappealing. A hole in the wall with sticky floors and two kinds of warm beer on tap, while potentially charming, also isn’t the type of place I like to call “my bar.” No, whenever you need to take a break from your worries, whenever you’d like to get away, sometimes you...

Partner Spotlight: Francie and Finch Bookshop

Posted by Brian Frederick on

We love books too. You might think at Beer Paws we’re kinda one (well, two) dimensional. After all, we make no secret of our love for beer and dogs. But we’re more than that. We’re like an onion — we have layers. And one of those layers is a love for good books. And when you’re in Lincoln, there’s one place that’s known for good books, a great environment and a friendly staff who wants to help you discover your next favorite: Francie & Finch.

Partner Spotlight: Zipline Brewing Company

Posted by Crystal Wiebe on

A fantastic flight. In many ways, trying out new beer is a bit like gliding along a taught line high above the treetops. You strap yourself in, a small part of yourself asking just what you’re getting in to. There’s a touch of nervousness – is this going to go well or end badly? And then there’s nothing to do but take the plunge and try that first sip. The rush of excitement, the thrill of that first taste, there’s nothing like it. And while some microbrews may crash and burn, leaving a bitter and unpleasant taste lingering long after...

Partner Spotlight: Ploughshare Brewing Co.

Posted by Crystal Wiebe on

A bumper crop of great food and beer. Nebraska is a farm state. It’s something the people who live there are proud of. From the seemingly endless fields of corn to the mascot of the flagship university, Nebraskans embrace their agricultural roots.  And in south Lincoln, one south Lincoln brewery has embraced that heritage and used it to create a bounteous harvest of great beers. In a refurbished barn harkening back to pioneer times, Ploughshare Brewing Co. has created a warm and inviting brew pub for people who enjoy good beer, good food and good company.  With a rotating cast...
