You like hops? You will love this Weyerbacher Hops Infusion. Nice head, good body, smells of coppery malts, but no malt flavor. As expected with a super hop brew, it leaves a bitter but not astringent aftertaste.
Hops. Lots of hops.

Beer from last night
August 13, 2010
Redhook’s Rope Swing Summer Pilsner – crisp, clean aftertaste, light effervescence. A solid pilsner for a hot summer evening.
Beer for tonight
August 8, 2010
Tonight’s beer is the Flying Dog 20th Anniversary “Raging Bitch” Belgian-style IPA. Pours a bit hazy, without much head. Flowery on the nose, an an interesting subtle bubblegum scent. Very hoppy, with a slight orange flavor lingering on the palate. Sweet, but not overpowering. The 8.3% ABV will creep up on you, especially on an empty stomach.
Guinness *is* good for you
September 8, 2007
From BBC News:
The old advertising slogan “Guinness is Good for You” may be true after all, according to researchers.
A pint of the black stuff a day may work as well as an aspirin to prevent heart clots that raise the risk of heart attacks.
Drinking lager does not yield the same benefits, experts from University of Wisconsin told a conference in the US.
WVU #1 party school
August 21, 2007
I don’t understand this. When I attended, and the times I have returned, I never see any partying.
Princeton Review has named the top 10 party schools for 2008:
1 West Virginia University
2 University of Mississippi
3 The University of Texas at Austin
4 University of Florida
5 University of Georgia
6 Penn State–University Park
7 University of New Hampshire
8 Indiana University at Bloomington
9 Ohio University-Athens
10 University of California-Santa Barbara
As a side note, WVU is No. 4 in “Students Pack the Stadiums”; No. 5 for “Best College Library”; and No. 8 for “Best College Newspaper”.
We’ll disregard placing No. 6 for “Lots of Beer” and No. 7 for “Lots of Hard Liquor”.
