Save Budweiser

Since 1852 Anheuser-Busch has been an American Owned and operated business. In addition to great tasting beer, this company has provided 1000s of domestic jobs as well as millions of dollars in charitable donations to nonprofit organizations, disaster relief and has a long history of environmental awareness. Recently in the news, talks of a hostile take over of the company have been prevalent. Let’s band together as 1 voice and try to save more than just our beer. We don’t want another American icon turned over to a foreign company; we want the motto to remain…The Great American Lager.

Resveratrol

more research is needed before this justifies becoming a wino 🙂

human dose is 150-200 mg/day, but given that many red wines contain 3-4 mg of resveratrol per liter, a comparable intake would require 50 bottles of wine per day.

A team of students have spliced genes into brewer’s yeast to increase its output of resveratrol, the same healthful chemical found in red wine.

one for the road

This age old saying comes from the days of public hangings. On the day of execution the condemned man would be taken from the prison and driven down the main thoroughfare of the town through screaming crowds, to the gallows. It was customary at the time for him to be given a drink from every ale house that stood between him and the rope, (which could be as many as 20) the intention being to make the poor soul completely bladdered before reaching the rope, thus making his passing easier. Hence, ‘One for the road‘.
