Bottoms Up!

I love beer. The Pacific Northwest is one of the best places in the country for a beer drinker. There are 186 breweries in Washington alone and it seems like new ones are popping up regularly. With all the great beer around here, I was amazed when I saw the latest list of beer consumed per capita by state. Washington ranks 45th on the list! You people disappoint me.
