Let's talk about beer [View all]

Really good beer, that is.

Brown Nut Ale

OK, can I direct you to Oak Pond Breweries in Caaanan, Maine?

One of my very best friends in this life was Don Chandler who became the Brewmater for ihis beer. Don was one of those guys that was as liberal as you can imagine...but he was also a field engineer that made helicopters evac zones a reality in Vietnam. I'm also sure, when he died last year, it was Agent Orange. Oh well...I'm pretty sure Don would say, try my "Brown Nut Ale'...and, as someone who appreciates beer, I can tell you this is maybe the finest Dark brown beer you could ever drink. I''m serious.
