Life is short.
You do not need to waste your calories drinking bad beer. I'm sorry Budweiser, I believe your beer taste like water...
Beer is one of the world's most widely consumed beverage. It is very yummy and healthy for you. The moderate consumption of alcohol in beer is associated with a decreased risk of cardiac disease, stroke and cognitive decline. Side note: heavy alcohol consumption can include the risk of developing alcoholism and liver disease. It can also make you fat without proper nutrition and exercise, but so can Oreo's...
My infatuation with beer started because of all the microbreweries popping up. I think Michigan has some of the best! Red's Rye from Founders Brewery in Grand Rapids, Michigan is my favorite beer in the whole wide world! I am so glad that I live close to the brewery so I can enjoy it whenever I want!
This is my sad story for the day (since some of you think my posts can be depressing):
I was very sad last week when I stopped at my favorite brewery on the way home from work. I very eagerly ordered my favorite beer, a Rita's Red Rye (I am trying to rename it - Triple R could also work), and found out that they didn't have any on tap! Apparently, there is a shortage of Amarillo hops! What? How could it be? I sadly ordered an IPA with tears in my eyes. I paid my tab and went to Party World and bought a six pack of Red's Rye in bottles. I don't understand this whole shortage thing...
Here is a link to an article on the hops shortage of 2011 -
