First Beer for February?

By Ed Kohler | Jan 30, 2007





It’s just after 10pm on Jan 30th, which means I have 26 hours to go on my January challenge of no alcohol. Not that I’m counting or anything.

Frankly, giving up drinking alcohol has been a lot easier than soda. Convenient access to caffeine is apparently tougher for me to overcome than the effects of beer, wine, and Boone’s.

This is probably the longest I’ve gone without drinking since I started drinking, so I think it will be interesting to see what effect one beer will have on my system.

Which brings me to this questions: Which beer should I have first in February? I like to think globally and drink locally, so I’m leaning toward something from the area. Maybe a trip up to Barley John’s to try their Extra Special Lager?

What would you do?

    You know the story. A locked door. A case of Old Milwaukee. And a VHS tape of Best of Battle of the Network Stars. And maye some gay music like Metallica.

    Aaron, quick question: WTF is Duo Brewing? I checked out the website and, well, it leaves a few questions unanswered.

    That being said, I’ll try to make it over tomorrow night.

    [...] Aaron turned me on to the Duo Brewing scene in the comments on The Deets earlier this week, mentioning that there would be free beer at his house tonight. That’s not the kind of thing I’m going to turn down, so I stopped by Aaron’s with Bryan to finally meet Aaron, thus turning an online friend into a real-world friend. And, of course, to sample some beer from Duo Brewing. [...]
