Final Gravity, A Beer Zine

Final Gravity is a quarterly print zine about beer and the culture surrounding it published by David Nilsen and Melinda Guerra.

Final Gravity exists to tell personal, human-centered stories about beer. The zine mostly stays away from reporting and more newsy, industry-level coverage—there are already several great publications providing that—and features writing that is more focused on people, places, cultural intersections, and the holistic ways we interact with and around beer. Our pitch guide can be found here.

When we say “zine,” we don’t mean magazine; we mean an old school, staple-bound, 8.5” x 5.5” paper zine produced in the proud DIY zine-making tradition. This format keeps production costs down, allowing us to pay our writers and artists, but despite this grassroots approach, Final Gravity features professional editing and clean and attractive formatting. 

We still think beer is cool, and we still think there are amazing stories to be told in this space. We are proud to share those stories in the pages of Final Gravity.
