Oh, wow, I could have used this in college!
Normally, I talk about whisky, as that's my preferred drink, but this week, I'm thinking about beer. Or, something rather like it. You see, some genius at Nestle has invented, and patented, <a target=_'blank" href="http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn8248">coffee-based beer</a>. Ah, the joy of beer with caffeine and a hint of coffee taste. According to the article, the drink "pours and foams like beer, but smells of strong coffee and packs a concentrated caffeine kick." So, you can get that double buzz from both the suds and the juice, as it were. A little "<a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_of_the_dog">hair of the dog that bit you</a>". Wowzer, I could have used this the morning after a buddy and I split five pitchers of beer between the two of us, in just under four hours. Lord, I get woozy just thinking about that one.
Say, I wonder how this beer-coffee goes with cold pizza?
