Automotive
Spy shots of the Porsche 911 GT2 have hit the web, and although the car is still heavily camouflaged, you can easily tell this Porsche 911 GT2 has some serious aerodynamics. The massive rear wing makes it easy to believe the Porsche 911 GT2 is expected to put down around 620-hp from a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter engine.
Google Maps is getting multi-stop directions for its mobile app. As many of you may already know, Google owns Waze, and although it has no intention of combining the two apps, it’s nice to see that little feature crossing over from the traffic-slicing service.

Today’s beer pick takes us to Alpine Beer Company in Alpine, California. Founded in 2002, this Cali brewery has slowly grown over the years, upgrading to large fermenters as well as a larger pub. However, they haven’t lost their passion for craft beer and continue to produce quality suds. If you live in California, we recommend you pick up a Duet IPA.
