| You don't say..... Organic beer production emits substantially more greenhouse gases than ordinary beer, according to a Copenhagen University thesis which concludes that organic beer production emitted 12 percent more gases than traditional pilsners. -------------------- Undeterred by the above report, Adnams Brewery has launched what it calls the first carbon neutral beer brewed in the UK. They claim that the beer, East Green, is 25% less carbon intensive to produce than other beers and is the equivalent of taking six cars off the road a year. Only Al Gore knows who is right. -------------- Oskar Blues Brewery remains the fastest growing brewery in the nation, increasing its beer production by 51% in the past twelve months. The company -- the nation's first hand-canning craft brewery makes Dale's Pale Ale, Old Chub Scottish Style Ale, Gordon, and Ten FIDY Imperial Stout --------------------- |
| 3 Reasons to Drink Beer 1. Moderate consumption can make men who drink it have a 30 to 35 percent less likely chance of having a heart attack than abstainers. 2. Beer raises good cholesterol. It apparently also has a positive effect on the lining of blood vessels. 3. Lower dementia rates were reported by adults over age 65 who drank one to six alcoholic beverages over a week than their abstaining counterparts. S ------------------- Political Brews Sixpoint Craft Ales announced the release of the "Hop Obama" ale. The company asks that " all supporters of the democratic process hoist a glass of this limited-edition beer that was brewed in tribute Senator Barack Obama's presidential campaign". As of now there are no beers officially supporting Senators Clinton or McCain. A new CNN poll among voters who prefer beer to wine showed McCain has a 6 percent edge over Clinton and a 8 percent edge over Obama. |

O'Malley "“Beer is the center of everything. Everything revolves around beer. When you drink beer, everything revolves. Therefore beer is the center of everything.” |
| Jack Nicholson “Beer, it’s the best damn drink in the world.” Danny McGoorty "When I realized that I had turned out to be a lousy, two-bit pool hustler and drunk, I wasn't depressed at all. I was glad to have a profession." Raymond Chandler “I think a man ought to get drunk at least twice a year just on principle, so he won’t let himself get snotty about it.” |
