I was at a homebrew club meeting and the head brewer for a local brewery tried my barleywine. He really enjoyed it and started talking to the guy next to us. Pro brewer: Hey, you really have to try his beer. Club member: I actually just got back from the doctor and he said I need to limit my...

Anyone else STILL not get their certificates? I sent my three beers to Atlanta.

I wouldn't doubt. I actually ordered it and played along saying I Can taste the grass. My wife was hitting me under the table.

I had a waiter tell me the other day that they got a new beer in that is really refreshing. It's oddly enough made with grass. It's called st. Arnold's lawn mower.

It's the same reason a salad costs more than a combo meal at a fast food joint. They know you'll pay more for healthier foods.
