We've never been big fans of craft beer industry cutting corners-But this just makes all kinds of sense!

We are now one step closer to becoming hermits.

ACB is all for utilizing social media to assist you in: a) drinking, b) making "friends", and c) making money. But how far is too far? Will it be when you can search around you for eligible women to attempt your smooth lines on? Or what about if you could make a fart come from your phone!? That could be hours of fun when saddling up to a bar!

Hey, it's Friday, and that's good. We hope everyone's enjoying their American Craft Beer Week, because it officially wraps up this Sunday. And since ACBW is still going on, this weekend's picks are necessarily all about the beer! And you better be ready, because there are tons of great craft beer events going on this weekend! So, fasten your seatbelts, because this thing is not over till we say it's over!

Welcome to "The American Craft Beer Week Continues" edition of our Weekend Picks . . .

The Beaver State represented well at the 20th annual Australian International Beer Awards (AIBA) as three Oregon breweries received trophies. Deschutes Brewery (Bend), Pelican Pub & Brewery (Pacific City), and Caldera Brewing (Ashland) will all be returning stateside to show off some new hardware.

These guys at The Bronx Brewery are always doing good things.....
