Hail the Ale! Beer Blog

Using the “if you’re old enough to die for your country, you’re old enough to drink” reasoning, a  Vermont state legislator Richard Marron wants to lower the drinking age to eighteen. Doing so would mean Vermont would lose about $10 million in federal highway funding.

That was the title of a post on the Boston craigslist in the men seeking women category. It gets better:

Lets face it. I need a Woman.
I'm also out of Beer and my driveway needs shoveling.

You're Hot, Young and Good with your hands.

For shoveling my driveway and bringing me beer I'll give you an evening you'll never forget. We can go out too, but you'll have to drive AND pay, since I'm a little down on my luck monetarily and even if you do dig my car out, it's a run-down shit-box that wont run. Dig?

Best,

Anthony

P.S. I'll answer all responses on a first come/first serve basis.

So ladies, if you meet Anthony’s strict standards, be sure to track him down. It shouldn’t be hard.

Gizmodo tells us about the Pack n Chair:

Only a little bit dorky, the 'Pack n Chair' is a folding seat that wraps around a standard-issue, detachable backpack… The backpack even has a built-in cooler at the bottom, easily accessible by venue security, where you can stash a couple of cans of cheap beer to distract them from the doobs you have stashed inside the chair's metal frame.

Marta is traveling in the Netherlands. Marta gets to have Belgian and
Dutch beers straight from the source. Marta is kind enough to take some
photos and write about her travels and beer. Chris is jealous of Marta.

Damn, this would have been good to see:

An Anheuser-Busch Bud Light spot poking fun at last year's wardrobe malfunction, set to air during the Super Bowl, will not be seen
after FOX and Anheuser-Busch execs met to discuss the potential
backlash. In the spot, a man, backstage at last year's half time show,
uses Jackson's dress, hanging over a chair, to get a better grip
opening his bottle of Bud Light. This apparently damages the dress.

UPDATE: You can now view the spot at Budweiser's site.
