Competition
Time Again: Free Keg Of Beckett's Dublin Lager
The
weather for this weekend may be rubbish. Nevertheless, we are planning
to stay in the summer mood until Halloween. Want to join us? We
have partnered with youth internet survivor P45.net to give you
the chance to win a keg of Beckett's Dublin lager. Where other cool
sites run out of 'oxygen', P45.net
blusters on with a knowing heavyweight swagger.
Stupid
easy question at http://www.brewcrew.ie/p45.htm
Top Tip: The
more of your mates you tell about this competition, the better chance
you have of getting some Free Peer Beer.
People do actually
win. The P45.net winner will be announced in the next edition. Recent
keg winners are listed at http://www.brewcrew.ie/winstuff.htm

Testimonials
from satisfied Brewcrew users.
"Beer
was excellent. Everyone remarked on the service and the beer. Much
better than the Dublin result last Sunday anyway."
David McCormack, Inchicore.
""The
service was excellent, setup nice and handy, and The Beckett's beer
was oh so nice, much better than I expected. A creamier fresher
tasting heineken is how I'd describe it."
Keith Humphreys, Dalkey.

1. Trial
Nears in Castration of Town's Beer-swilling Goat Mayor
"It's a
story with larger-than-life elements: a millionaire and a movie
star, an irate stone mason and a stealthy act of violent revenge
in a border town, the castration of a magistrate in the dark of
night. Added is the singular nature of the victim: Clay Henry III,
a duly elected figure who happens to be a red and white-spotted
goat with a strong penchant for beer."
"It doesn't
seem to have traumatized him," said resort marketing director
Ed Spengeman. "He drinks as much as he ever did. Or, maybe,
he drinks a little more."

2. Ben 'Cooter'
Jones for Congress
Remember
the car mechanic from The Dukes of Hazzard, well he is running as
a Democrat for Congress in Virginia. His slogan reads;
'Running
the old-fashioned way - shaking hands, looking folks in the eye,
and listening to every word.'
Early polls
see him 4% shy of the leading candidate with 44%. A close one. No,
he is not running against Boss Hogg. Although, you can view some
pics of Cooter and deputy Cletus recently re-united. [BTW, Hogg
is dead] http://www.benjonesforcongress.com/photos/stage.html
Some Classic
Cooter:
1. "Daisy
is so good lookin' she'd make a freight train go up a dirt road."
2. "We've
always had sushi in Hazzard. We used to call it bait."

Have been meaning
to put one of these together for sometime. Beer.com
have come up with ten alright selections. Why is beer required in
movies?
"Beer is
often crucial to story development and in context it can
subtly reveal character nuances and motivations. Beer acts as a
narrative driving force, provides comic relief, blahblahblah ...
whatever."
www.beer.com
review of Apocalypse Now:
Suds Story:
Lieutenant Benjamin Willard is sent into Cambodia to
assasinate rogue American Colonel Walter Kurtz (Marlon Brando).
Hijinks ensue.
Foam Moment:
In need of an airlift, Willard approaches Lt. Kilgore
(Robert Duval) for help. Later, they bond over beer. Willard describes
the scene: "They choppered in T-bones and beer and turned the
L.Z.
into a beach party. But the more they made it like home, the more
they
made everybody miss it."
Bottle Count:
Dozens, with T-bones for everyone.
