"I like beer. it makes me a jolly good fellow,
I like beer. it helps me unwind
and sometimes it makes me feel mellow (makes him feel mellow)..."
--Tom T Hall, "I Like Beer"
My name's Duke, and I like beer.
Oh, don't get me wrong, I like wine and spirits of most kinds as well. But when it comes right down to it, when I come home after a long day, when I want something that's familiar and friendly, I'm likely to drink a beer or a cider. Beer is something I'm passionate about; it makes me feel connected with all the history that has gone before me.
Beer is one of the world's oldest beverages. The earliest Sumerian writings include the Hymn to Ninkasi, which was both a prayer and a way of remembering the recipe for beer brewing. (Now that, my friends, is multi-tasking). Beer has been food and fellowship and libation and good times, and while Twin is known for its excellent wine and spirits selection and prices, I'm here to tell you we also have some pretty tasty beers.
