Beer summit
 

CBC was reporting on the "beer summit" that Obama hosted. The article is at:

Apparently, the Mass. governor wanted him to serve Sam Adams, however...

"Obama opted for a Bud Lite, made by Anheuser-Busch...."

No wonder Fortenberry likes the guy so much.

3. Mirror Pond
4. Full Sail

the trip to Montana).

Mmmmmmm ... Moose Drool. That was an instant favorite when I
visited the Yellowstone area.

Besides, there's nothing quite like ordering: "Waitress, I'd like
some more Moose Drool please".

4 Blonde Ale and Shiner Bock in the fridge)

2. Trout Slayer

Love that stuff.

Well, I don;t.

And who can blame you. If I had access to Big Rock's Traditional
Ale, I'd never drink anything else.


Chuck Vance (well, maybe just an occasional Grasshopper Ale or a
Warthog, but nothing else ... well, maybe a McNally's ... or a Black
Amber ... )

Of course.
I usually stock Henry Weinhard'ss (Hef, Blondie, reserve, Blue Boor
etc.) Reasonably priced, cheap, in cases. Then there are also the Hood
River beers, Full Sail, Fat Tire etc, Seattle's Ballard labels, etc.
Of the Mexicans I like Pacifico out of Mazatlan, and Modelo Negro.
None of these cost a fortune. All are good and all use NW hops (As
does Bud by the way), and barley or wheat. The giant hop yards South
of Yakima, Wa, supply brewers worldwide. But the locals get the best
and use the most, a good thing if you like to taste the hops that is.
