Isn’t a low octane beer a Natty Light?
Yes, albeit a very bad example of one –
The NYTimes reported on low-alcohol beer a few years ago. I’m still waiting for more of these good tasting lower alcohol beers: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/27/dining/27beer.html?pagewanted=all
Founders just released one called “All-Day IPA”. It’s only in select locations right now (not Georgia), but I have high hopes it will take off and see shelves locally.
Holy lord, that Gawker excerpt from the Park Slope Food Coop meeting was equal parts scary & hilarious…
Read the full set of tweets. It gets better.
By that I meant if you click on the link in the article to go to the original twitter feed, you get the unabridged version.
I was a taco tabulator at Emory’s successful Guinness attempt last year; this year I was promoted to taco surveyor. I am pleased to report that Emory smashed the record recently held by Rochester. Over 650 feet of tacos. Over 1450 tacos.
