Just when you think you've tried 'em all ... just sampled 5, yes FIVE samples of new microbrews yesterday from the Pacific Northwest. Is it the Cascade hops or just the passion for beer and beer culture out West that makes it so good - and neverending. Cheers!

A TOAST TO 2009 WITH THE PATRON SAINT OF BEER!

In much earlier times, beer was not something people drank when they wanted to get a "buzz" while watching a ball game. No, Europeans and others made beer because it was a way to make sure the water was safe to drink.

King Gambrinus, known as "the patron saint of beer," has long been a universal symbol of beer and brewing. Particularly during the late nineteenth century, the image of Gambrinus was used by countless brewers to promote their products and remind consumers of the rich heritage of beer-making. Many breweries were even adorned with life-size statues of the King.

King Gambrinus is a legendary king of Flanders. We are accustomed to seeing him represented in the habit of a knight of the middle-ages, with the occasional addition of a crown. Popular imagination, it seems, attached such great importance to beer, that in according the honor of its invention, it could not be satisfied with anything less than a king."

So, A TOAST TO 2009 WITH THE PATRON SAINT OF BEER!

I wanted to personally invite all the members of the Beer Lovers group to join our discussions in regards to cheeses and their combination with beer at theCheese Group on FohBoh. Every week we introduce a new cheese and invite you to find it in your area, buy it, try it and then discuss it with us. This is a great way to create a knowledge base for all to use when pairing a beer with a cheese to get the full effects of a great pairing

Beer is ok to love, I have realized in the last year. The "I drank to much beer last night" is not as bad as it sounds. So rember on your next night off work do something you love BEER!

Ran into "The American Beer Drinking Club" Current Beer news and I think they said around 3,100 members (so far). Might find some good articles for the group. American Beer Drinking Club
