Porch Beers

Porch Beers is a perzine created by Elliott Stewart. In each issue Stewart writes humorous personal essays about his life, tied together by a loose theme.

issues

• Issue 1: Fandom: Issue 1 (March 2021) is about fandom. Stewart writes about fandoms he's been a part of in his life, from pro wrestling to Cats. He also writes about some fandoms he's fallen out of love with, like Hanson and Rocky Horror Picture Show.

• Issue 2: Wild, Weird, and Wonderful Issue 2 (August 2021) is about Stewart's home state of West Virginia. He details the food and folklore, rants about leftist takes on Dolly Parton, and gets real about why he left.

• Issue 3: A Bargain Basement Version of Songbook Issue 3 (November 2021) is a meditation on a dozen meaningful songs for Elliott. He writes about memories attached to everyone from Springsteen to Kendrick Lamar and takes a crack at some music journalism on "what is the best song ever?"
