    be happy.

    I say that beer is proof that people love people and want people to be happy.

    What say you?

    Did Ben really say that?

    He was more of a wine aficionado: http://www.beerinfood.com/Franklin.html

    I think beer is proof of man's innate ability for discovery, creativity and enjoyment. And it goes really well with pizza.

    Candy is dandy but liquor is quicker?

    I say beer is proof that all men, given enough free time on their hands, will eventually turn any substance into an intoxicating beverage!

    Nothing special. It was supposed to be a Scottish Ale but with the hops shortage I had to make some substitutions. Basically, I've got a Belgium style pale. I'm way down south, so its already getting hot and it hits the spot after being outside in the heat for a little while. I also have an Imperial Stout ready to be tapped!

    Goddish.

    Godlike, at minimum.

    Cheers!
