Here we go. 9. Firestone - Oaktoberfest . This was a good beer. I am a sucker for Oktoberfests , and I loved this one. I know I liked it, and I remember it had a more hop style to it that I expect. With that said, I would buy it again. Well, if I could buy it, I would. Grade: 3.5 Burps. Honestly, I've never been a fan of Firestone. I figured it was the tire company or the guy from The Bachelor making...

The Food and Drug Administration is threatening to ban alcoholic beverages that contain caffeine, saying the combination has not been proven safe. No kidding. Since no one thinks that adding caffeine to alcohol eliminates the latter's inherent hazards, it seems unlikely that manufacturers will be able to satisfy the FDA's demand for "clear evidence of safety."

Skoien, but it really bears close reading by anybody interested in substantive Second Amendment doctrine. The court determines that intermediate scrutiny applies, and then sends the whole case back to the district court for a second try, with a bit of a nudge: Intermediate scrutiny tolerates laws that...
From $50 bamboo T-shirts to environmental coloring books handed out by petroleum companies, greenwashing continues to be high on my list of "Things That Make Me Want To Rip My Hair Out and Then Go Do Worse to the People Responsible." The worst part, of course, is that it's often not easy to know when your green is coming to you heavily laundered. ClimateCount is an organization that's trying...
Beer rules wine -- not in taste, but in distribution and regulation. The documentary "Beer Wars" got me to thinking about this. It's not a great movie: director Anat Baron is allergic to alcohol and thinks she knows craft beer because she was general manager of Mike's Hard Lemonade (only in this film are those two italicized phrases used in the same sentence.) This is why she wastes lots...
