BEER OF THE GAME
When you're 10 years removed from college, like I am, your purchases of kegs -- which used to be a weekly occurrence, it seems -- are few and far between. Today, though, we throw down the gauntlet: you're with me, pony of New Glarus Spotted Cow. Let's do this.
Enjoy the game, and bring me home a winner.
