Personal Narrative On Beer

For me, that would be a very unfortunate situation. I absolutely love milk, and I drink more than I should. My go to drink is chocolate milk or hot chocolate. I have hot chocolate at least twice a week, and have plain ol’ chocolate milk at least three, if not more. It doesn’t help that I have a collection of Disney mugs that I love to use, and what perfect drink to put in them besides hot chocolate. Milk is of very high need in my life, and my world would be stygian without it. Don’t get me wrong though, I enjoy root beer too. However, I drink root beer abstemiously. I think the only time I ever drink it is when I’m looking for something fizzy to drink, and it’s the only pop in our house. There are also occasions when my mom brings home little

The moment I emerged from the stairway I began to stare at the man sitting in the chair across the room. This man was not the man I remembered; this man was pale, weak, and lacked motivation. He was not my grandpa: outspoken, stubborn, and jolly. However, the house had not changed one bit. There was still a cluttered mess on the table and reminisce of my departed great-grandma all throughout the house.

It was an old 1960 model Daisy 880 pump-action pellet gun, coming from the decade before my dad was born. It had a matte black barrel and receiver, with a sturdy wooden stock; one of my prized possessions. I absolutely loved it, and still continue that affection to this day. However, that day my specific target was a Barqs Root beer can, set atop an old pile of wood that had once been a pig-pen, probably built around the time my gun was made. With plenty of time to kill, I began shooting.

As I sit here on this park bench pondering the writings of Thoreau and Emerson, I remove a lukewarm beverage of the alcoholic variety from my backpack and evoke the creative juices. Although some may question the legality of drinking alcohol in public, let me declare that at least it’s in a can. As I sip on this bitter liquid, I inquire as to the source of the non-conventual thinking that is Transcendentalism. Many themes seem reminiscent to eastern religions and Native American Philosophy. As most researchers of Native American culture will attest, many of their mythologies and allegories of nature were a product of the psychedelic experience induced by peyote. With that thought I look down at my brew, with its tiny bits of condensation

Every Wednesday at Terrace Club, we take part in wedding of sorts…the marriage of our Tastes of the World menu and Fine Beer Wednesday. This year, Chef Rick and I have worked hand in hand with Guillermo Martinez Cabalga ’17 and Jack Hollingsworth ’17—otherwise known as the Beer Chairs—to pair the Wednesday dining room menu with its beer counterparts in the tap room. So far, the marriage seems strong and appears to be in a permanent honeymoon phase.

I parked my car into the driveway, shutting off the car engine before stepping out of the car and making my way over towards the front door.

My best friend was doing bad things with her life. She was drinking with her friends and smoking weed and going to parties and doing things a 13 year old should not do. The girl she drove home with was funneling a beer while driving. She didn’t need to be in there. I did not know what to do. If I told she would hate me, but if I did not tell then she would not be here right now. We’ve been best friends since 3rd grade. I didn’t want to risk losing her. But I know if I didn’t tell then i’d lose her forever. I’m glad I told my mom because she is not doing that stuff anymore.

The craft beer industry is growing at a rapid rate and is showing no signs of slowing anytime soon. You have joined the craft brew business and opened up a successful brewpub.

I turn my head and watch the car continue to drive down my road as I try to recollect all of my thoughts. I wish I hadn’t moved out of it’s way. I wish it didn’t swerve to miss me. It would have made things quicker and my mother wouldn’t have the blame on herself. Oh well, my time will probably be later on

“We might want to go sit down unless you want to keep dancing,” he said with a teasing smile.

I was invited to the 3rd annual PGA National Resort & Spa Craft Beer Bash on Saturday, August 19th. Technically it’s the 6th annual, but the first three years were a combination of craft beer and burgers. I had the pleasure of attending one of those in the past, so I had an idea of what to expect this time around. The festival started at 1:00pm and continued until 4:00pm at which time festivalgoers were invited to an after-party at the iBar. Live entertainment was provided during the Bash by Sweet Justice and DJ/Electric Violinist Timothee Lovelock of Lovelock Music Group. Both acts played simultaneously in two different areas. Both had completely different vibes, but seemed to be enjoyed by all, myself included. There were a number of

Beer is One of the most widely consumed beverages around the world. According to “List 25,” “An average American consumes about 23 gallons of the beverage a year, “that averages about 27 six packs or 1 ½ of a kegs which is a lot of beer. Beer was first seen when nomads made beer from grain and water even before they knew how to make bread. It was considerably cleaner than the water they had due to the fermentation and alcohol that is created. Then beer evolved over time and became better. In the early 1800s beer started to become a revolutionary alcohol beverage. In the 1800s there were many things beer evolved in to: it was known as “Ale” Oktoberfest was created, and the first golden lager was created. Later on in the 1900s U.S. retail beer sales exceeded $45 Billion and The world 's largest brewery was Coors Brewing, in Golden, Colorado, at 272 Million cases that were produced.

The next morning, I woke up to the bright sun peeking through my curtains. Immediately, I got dressed and headed for the shop, eager to get there.
