If the rumors are to be believed, frat boys across America don’t even have to leave their sofas to play beer pong. Their favorite drinking game is coming directly to the computer thanks to Nintendo’s Wii.
JV Games Inc. has announced that its newly formed Frat Party Games will be releasing a Beer Pong video […]

I’m off soon on one of my periodic trips to Europe (much to my co-blogger’s chagrin), and just in the nick of time, since it’s the beginning of biergarten season.

The Stanley Cup Playoffs have put Pittsburgh on my mind anyway, and this post reminded me of the Church Brew Works, a truly unique brew pub right up the street from the venerable Iron City Brewery. This really is a brewpub in a church, and a very attractive church at that, so if you’re in […]

The Sapporo brewery in Japan announced that it plans to launch a “space beer” by the end of the year. And yes, it is exactly what it sounds like - a beer for astronauts to enjoy in space.
Only 100 bottles are planned and there are no plans to make it available for commercial sale […]

On Saturday night, the weather was lovely. Chris and I were out on our own, the kiddos tucked into bed at home under the careful eye of Super Nanny (our version). It was rare that we had this sort of freedom to go anywhere we wanted, without timing and food restraints, so we […]

The Dems may not know who their presidential nominee is yet, but they do know who their official ethanol provider is for the 2008 Democratic National Convention: Molson Coors.
It may seem a little surprising for the Dems to choose Coors, given Pete Coors’ run for Senate in 2006 as a GOP candidate (he lost, […]

I made buffalo chicken wings** a few weeks ago - for the first time ever - and I have to say, they were mighty tasty. With the weather that we’re having on the north east coast (cool and gray), wings just may be the perfect food to enjoy over the Memorial Day holiday weekend.
I […]
