Here’s some beer-related humor for a snowy Friday:
The Center for Disease Control has issued a medical alert about a highly contagious, potentially dangerous virus that is transmitted orally, by hand, and even electronically.
This virus is called Weary Overload Recreational Killer (WORK). If you receive WORK from your boss, any of your colleagues, or anyone else […]
Since I wrote about stouts earlier in the week, I can only add - praise the engineers who developed the pub draft can! It may not be as good as draft, but it’s pretty darn close, and I can enjoy it in my living room (at least until we install that tap system I’ve been […]
Some time ago I was “tagged” by Heather at http://www.acreativejournal.com/. I haven’t responded because of outages and, well, because sometimes that happens. Apparently I’m supposed to list seven odd things about myself, so I’ll try keep this beer-related.
1. I didn’t really drink beer until I was living in Germany
2. When I did start drinking beer, […]
There are a lot of jobs I think I’d like. I’d like to be a brewmaster, but ultimately I’d rather be someone like Ed Stoudt of the Stoudt’s brewery, who seems to do more tasting than he does brewing. Also on the tasting side of things, there’s always beer journalist, a la Michael Jackson, although […]
Much has been made of our second president’s efforts to start a wine industry in the newly formed United States, but it would appear from this article that George Washington did his part to support the nascent brewing industry. Not surprisingly, Washington tended towards porters, most of which he ordered from Robert Hare, a brewer […]
Some time ago a few friends and I did a head-to-head comparison of a number of lovely Munich Starkbiers in honor of the end of Lent, and the winner was - Korbinian!
I’ll write a little more about Starkbier later, but you should know that the traditional Munich Starkbiers are all named with names which end […]
I was surfing for interesting things to report on while trying to decide on a beer to drink when I stumbled across this article about stout from the lesser of my two hometown papers. Fortunately for me, I have both Beamish and Murphy’s stout in the pub draft version in my basement right now, so […]
Wow, this is the second time I’ve written a nice thing about Boston Beer Company recently! The first time, I was thrilled to see Jim Koch taking over the old Rolling Rock brewery instead of building anew to expand capacity. Now they’ve decided to make hops available for brewers impacted by the shortage of hops. […]
It’s a little late in the game, but this article from real beer provides additional inspiration for the consumption of beer and chocolate during this most chocolaty of holidays. If you’re staying in, go ahead and make the chocolate stout brownies I reported on earlier in the week, and have a good Valentine’s.

This is going to be another irregular feature of this blog, a series of quotes dealing with beer. Today’s quote is from Abraham Lincoln, and goes something like this:
I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point […]
