Do You Know Your Guinness?
St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, and the Irish holiday just wouldn't be the same without a pint of Guinness in hand. You may have mastered the stout's double pour, but what do you know about the history of this legendary beer brand?
Happy Hour: Black and Tan
This was supposed to be a tale about how easy it is to make the glorious drink that is the black and tan. But, instead it is a recount of my struggle and ultimate defeat of the classic beer cocktail. You see, on Wednesday afternoon I had the brilliant idea of making myself a black and tan.
Guinness — It Really Is Good For You!
Happy almost St. Patrick's Day, and TGIF! Now is the time of year that we celebrate our country's Irish heritage by knocking back some Jameson whiskey and a pint or two of Guinness.
A Little Bit of Alcohol May Help With Weight Control
Moderation is key, especially when it comes to alcohol. The occasional glass of wine, cocktail, or beer has been shown to help the heart, and studies have indicated that moderate drinkers are less depressed and more active than non-drinkers.

Come Party With Me: Super Bowl — Drinks
This week I'm helping my friends Ryan and Alex plan a Super Bowl party. While many in attendance will be excessively drinking beer from a keg, I've decided to whip up a beer cocktail for anyone who prefers something a little lighter.
