I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.

If you could have a beer with anyone (dead or alive) it would be:
My wife - thankfully she is alive and well. And my daughter when she turns 21 in 20 years. And last would me my father who recently passed. He was a big Sierra Nevada fan. Would love to be able to bring him back and have a Torpedo with him.
About Me:
I'm a novice homebrewer here in Orange County, California. Mostly doing partial mash/extract brewing right now. Hopefully will soon start all-grain. Back in college in mid 90's I worked for a short time for a small mom and pop brewery in San Rafael. (San Rafael Brewing). Please visit my blog at http://karlisbeer.blogspot.com

Enjoy the blog, you might need to go into mass production with the wifebeer, I think it could be hit for beer drinkers trying to convert their significant others....Is that pic from the Guinness storehouse I went and the view was uncanny. Anyway, wanted to throw out that if you want to feed your blog into your profile to pick up some audience just copy and paste -
