BYCU

Attention Michigan Beer Drinkers: The World Expo of Beer will take place on Friday May 18th from 5-10PM and Saturday May 19th from 3- 10PM. It's in charming Frankenmuth, "little Bavaria," near the Michigan thumb area. * * * * * * * There's a World Beer Cup? I didn't know that, but it sounds like a pretty big deal: "The 2012 World Beer Cup recognizes top brews from around the world. Held this past weekend, this year's event was the biggest ever, with 3,921 beers from 57 countries competing in 95 categories." Link. * * * * * * * If you're into inexpensive but good wine, you need to get acquainted with Barefoot. I like their regular red sweet wine, but this new sweet red blew me away last night: Red Moscato. Best buzz $7 can buy.
