Mmmm Beer

Humans consume 35 billion gallons of beer every year, however I contribute very little to that number. When it is hot, I do enjoy a glass of Corona with some ice cubes in it or perhaps a pint of half beer, half 7-up (again with ice) but generally if I do drink, its vodka and cranberry or simply white wine.



In medieval days women brewed much of the beer, as it fell under the category of food, they would even sell beer to raise money for weddings, known as "bride-ale" which gave us the modern word "bridal".

My fiancé finds this amusing and thinks I should hold a fundraiser for our wedding at his bar, with me serving pitchers or beer to the drunken well wishers. This of course has a snowball's chance in Hell of happening.
