Thoughts, comments, opinions, and advice are all welcome.

Very clean.
You and I have had a lot of the same jobs. You'd rather be writing. I'd rather be designing and building something. Actually I'd rather be riding my bike between breweries but nobody offered me that job.
Did you change the name of American Idols?

I'll take that bike and beer job too. I'd even work overtime.
Yeah, I changed it. People kept thinking the book was about the show. Marketing fail on my part.

I bet the folks that thought it was about that stupid show got a shock if they actually read it! I have a collectors item!

Burn it. I'll send you the new edition for free.

That's just wasteful all the way around! I'll sell it back to you when you're famous and richer.

There's alot of wasted whitepace in my opinion. Are you using some sort of drag-n-drop builder tool like Wix?

Wasted whitespace...

What's so funny?
It looks better than expected on a phone but still has alot of whitespace. Pages with a menu, one picture, and a little bit of text should fit on one screen.

It's something called rapid weaver. I can adjust it so it will fill the screen but I thought it looked better this way. I'm still open though, and I really appreciate the feedback.

I thought there was a "WYSIWYG" tool involved. When you use those, you're always at the mercy of the designer's limitations. You have a simple enough page that it may be worth some time to learn HTML and see what you can do without it.

Very nice and clean looking. Black and white is still the easiest to read on the net.

Breweries are too far apart out here for a bike, but when I get my "AI" vehicle I'll be hitting them daily.

I like the simplicity of the new site. Totally uncluttered.
I also like to ride my bike between breweries. I'm currently looking for sponsorship so I can go pro, but I've had no takers. Unlike you some others here, I couldn't write my way out of a paper bag, so I'll leave that to you. :-)
