Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a Frontal Lobotomy." -from a 70's t-shirt my uncle wore.

Hermit hoar, in solemn cell,
Wearing out life's evening gray,
Smite thy bosom, sage, and tell,
What is bliss? and which the way?
Thus I spoke; and speaking sighed;
Scarce repressed the starting tear;
When the smiling sage replied:
"Come, my lad, and drink some beer."

From Boswell's "Life of Johnson"
London, England - 1791

"you can't say you've been drinking all day if you don't start early!"

From one of my favorite places:

We don’t brew beer for the masses. Instead, our beers are crafted for a chosen few, a small cadre of renegades and rebels who enjoy a beer that pushes the limits of what is commonly accepted as taste. In short, we make beer for people like us. -Founders Brewing Co.
