I'm not much of a drinker. When I do drink its usually wine or beer. Being a geologist I naturally gravitated towards beer when I was in college. To me there was nothing better after a day out in the field than to come back to an ice cold brew.
One of the reason's I didn't drink much was because I was so broke all the time. I simply couldn't afford to go out and spend a lot of money on drinks. One of the cheaper beers I discovered was Rolling Rock and that quickly become one of my favorites. At the time it was being produced in Western Pennsylvania ( here's what Wikipedia has to say about Rolling_Rock ). Living in Southeast Ohio it didn't have to be shipped far and I think that kept the costs down for it. It also said it was made from natural springs which reminded me of some of the natural springs we had were I was growing up. I also liked that it was a lighter tasting beer.
Now it is still made from natural springs in Missouri. The funny thing was when I first moved to Louisiana I couldn't get it here. But when they started to make it in Missouri about 2006 I could finally start getting it again, yet when I looked for it in NE Ohio recently I couldn't find it. I must admit I didn't look very hard since there were so many other choices around and I don't drink more than one or two at a time.
So here's my favorite geologic drink.
Now I don't drink much due to health reasons. But with it being Mardi Gras season its nice to have some brew in the house.
I muse: Is it time to go and pop the top?
