Fresh Hop Cinema: Craft Beer. Movies. Life.

One can dream of the day a Quentin Tarantino film is released with the hopes of catching it in all it's glory in a proper movie theater. Does "Once Upon A Time..." live up to this legendary expectation? Can a modest brown ale blow away two skeptical grown men? Can an imperial stout WITHOUT maple syrup live up to the reputation of the brewery whose maple beers define them in the mind of Jonny Summers?
