I’m posting this a couple of days late due to a busy weekend. Here are the interesting news items I’ve found related to beer in the past week:
- Fox News posted a list of the Top 10 Fruit Beers. At least six of them are available in Ohio.
- Brewers are upset that they won’t be able to sell spent grain from the brewing process to livestock farmers as animal feed, if a new regulation is passed by the FDA.
- A little late for Easter this year, but by next year you’ll have had time to practice making Bourbon Chocolate Bunnies for your Easter basket.
- Introducing Taedonggang Beer, the favorite of North Korean leader Kim-Jong Un.
- A Brief History of Beer from Gizmodo
- Some interesting facts around National Beer Day (April 7).
- ABC News lists The 10 Best Beers You’ve Probably Never Heard Of on their web site. I hate to tell them, but I’ve not only heard of – but actually HAD – #1, #2, #3, #5, and #8. I’m pretty sure several of the others aren’t available in Ohio.
- According to Reuters, Belgian Trappists are overwhelmed by the fact that their beer is considered some of the world’s best. (Perhaps they’re not enjoying enough of it? Or perhaps they simply haven’t had some of the competition’s products…)
- Although it has nothing at all to do with beer, this milk glass made of cookie sounds like a perfect dessert.
- Need to remove the labels from some bottles? Try soaking them in washing soda.
