Beer has always been important part of our history.

Did you know that the Pilgrims landed where they did because they ran out of beer?






Well, actually that's not true, but it still makes a good story.

Many websites point to the ship logs of Captain Christopher Jones as proof the ship’s crew was concerned about beer supplies.
I cant think of a boat that wasent concerned about their beer supply

and I've been on a lot of boats.

Here is one of our state reps doing his own "beer talk". I didn't vote for him BTW. As you can see we are lucky to have Becks here.
