“There can’t be good living where there is not good drinking.”- Benjamin Franklin

"Here's to those who love us. And here's to those who don't."     

It takes beer to make thirst worthwhile.

Cenosillicaphobia - There is a Cure!

 

BEER - "One common misconception is that beer is a specific drink --along with stout, ale, porter, bitter, and lager. In fact, beer is a generic term encompassing all these different types --meaning anything brewed with grain (although usually barley), hops and yeast. (Beers, Thomas Lange and Jo Forty, 1998, Chartwell Books, Inc.)
