“You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” The Patriots, one day, were the heroes- the young, underdog quarterback and weird head coach taking down the greatest show on turf. The problem is, they never died. Each and every year, a new hero steps up to try and take down the long-time villain, someone strong and noble enough to end the evil empire. And what better team, than the ones who fell in defeat to the Patriots 17 years ago?  There is always a reason to pop open a cold brew even if the weather outside is furiously cold and bitter. As the seasons change so to do our pallets. In the frost of winter beer lovers alike tend to reach for the darker brews. But with all the options where can one turn to find that perfect winter warmer? The WBOB beer belly squad has your back again as the resident taste testers have compiled these sipper suggestions for your consumption.
