Plenty o' beer in that one, and the opening scene, where a young Tom Powers and his pal, Matt Doyle, buy beer by the bucket in pre-Prohibition Chicago, is a nice little window into a bygone era.

After having attended one of Jay's parties, I may need to consider a similar procedure to handle the beer. By the way J, you threw the party, yet no post. We're all anxious to see the final roll call of pictures. It's your party, you can blog if you want to. Tom,

Maybe it's the new media exposure. Maybe it's how pissed I am at the three tiered system. A Colo School of Mines student wrote this http://bit.ly/ltWvY on her blog and it, for me, goes to the core of Craft Brewing as Art. This is what I posted on Anat's BeerWars blog Anat - Loved the show. Perhaps now more than when I first saw it last night. The shows that stick with you and gnaw afterwards are the important ones. I hope you might read this blog http://bit.ly/ltWvY from a Colo School of Mines CoEd that loves beer and has a way with words that I've never found in BrewsPapers. You made us think. Shannon is continuing your story in Coors Town, Golden Co. and hopefully to the rest of the country if she gets some exposure. Beer Wars probably won’t ever make the list but it is gnawing on me.

She is a wealthy brewery owner double amputee who has legs made of glass filled with beer. No, really. Wikkie says: "Set in Winnipeg, Manitoba during the Great Depression, it is a comic musical about a competition announced by a beer magnate to find the saddest piece of music in the world. Musicians from across the world come to Winnipeg to try their luck in the competition, but the contest eventually boils down to a battle within one family: a patriotic Canadian father and his expatriate sons, one of whom represents the United States, the other Serbia." Strange brew indeed. Tom J: Number one for me is Saddest Music in the World starring Isabella Rosillini. She is a wealthy brewery owner double amputee who has legs made of glass filled with beer.
