The LA Beer Float Showdown will be at the Blue Palms Brewhouse in Hollywood, California on July 26. The Golden State Café and BottleRock LA are squaring off to give Los Angeles a taste of how beer can be used in this special desert pairing. The Golden State Café began serving North Coast Brewing Company’s Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout with Scoops ice cream and was soon followed by BottleRock combining Brewery Ommegang’s Ommegang Rouge with Milk ice cream.

“That’s a Coors Light, because Bud Light won’t pay me nothing.”
Those are the words of Brock Lesnar after he knocked Frank Mir into another dimension at UFC 100 on Saturday night. So why call out Bud Light? Cause they won’t pay you, for whatever it is you think they should pay you for. Lesnar’s reasoning? “I was so jacked up (because) I’m used to selling pay-per-view tickets”, according to USA Today.
Jon Gosselin drinks tea, but I don’t know what kind of tea it is! I’ve Googled every combination of “jon” + “gosselin” + “kids” + “tea” + “divorce” + “wtf is that tea”. Nothing! Does anyone know? It looks awesome. I did have a reader response regarding what Condi Rice’s play-date was drinking in a previous post, maybe we’ll have similar luck this time… Continue Reading »

Writer David Lebovitz claims to be “living the sweet life in Paris”. As if I telepathically screamed “Prove it!” in his face, he has a recipe on his blog for Absinthe Ice Cream.
You win, Mr. Lebovitz, you win.
A genius of sorts, he has somehow combined the world of alcohol, specifically absinthe, with ice cream. This man would be a king in America; the Robert Parker of Baskin Robbins, the Steven Tanzer of Cold Stone Creamery, the Steve Heimoff of…wait, who? Continue Reading »
The Courier-Journal out of the Louisville, Kentucky is reporting that Knob Creek has run out of bourbon! Ye gods!
“Fans of Knob Creek bourbon may find their favorite whiskey in short supply this summer as the brand’s bottle warehouses near Clermont, Ky., are empty and the next batch of aged whiskey won’t be ready until November.
Bourbon experts say the looming shortage is somewhat unusual, although brands such as Knob Creek, which is aged for nine years, are more susceptible because their distillers must predict demand far in advance.” Continue Reading »
HELP University College in Malaysia has created art which was displayed in high-traffic locations in Kuala Lumpur, according to AdAge. The article also says that Malaysian young people “have a tendency to feel fearless and invincible”. Enter the car wreck/death chair art, which bears the message “Drink and drive and you might live to suffer the consequences.” This is a very cool effort to remind people of the dangers of drunk driving, and I know I posted about this same subject over the weekend, but it’s really important, and I’m prepared to dismantle the leased Mutineer Passat and turn it into a Mad Max death chair to prove my point.
Mutineer Magazine is on a one-way mission to bring fine beverage culture into the mainstream, and people driving cars into minivans full of kids make that tragically difficult to do. So be an upstanding Mutineer and NEVER drink and drive.
The headline says it all folks, Metro.co.uk is reporting that 900 boxes of coffee “containing some 9,000 coffee packets” were contaminated with Viagra.
Really? REALLY?
That’s all I have to say about that.
