Beer: It's not just for breakfast anymo—wait, it is
I'm sick of critics telling us what to watch, what to wear, and now, what kind of beer to have for breakfast (their unhelpful answer is, apparently, none at all). Tell that to the crew of Baltic Sea treasure-hunters responsible for salvaging 5 bottles of what may be the world's oldest drinkable ale from a Finnish vessel that sunk en route to St. Petersburg nearly 200 years ago—those guys deserve a beer (for breakfast or otherwise). The brew, which reportedly is "golden and cloudy, with hints of seawater and a sour odor that expert tasters likened to French cheese," will serve as a template for modern brewers to replicate cheesy, golden seawater beer from the 1800s; I, for one, can't wait. Meanwhile, it's breakfast time—barkeep!
