"It's got a little kick in it!"
Thus proclaimed Terry McAuliffe after taking a swig of Winter of Our Discontent Ale, the latest potable by the Brewnettes. Yes, indeed, I presented the Chairman with a bottle of artisanal beer during our meeting at the DNC Wednesday afternoon. He immediately asked for a bottle opener and had a drink - it was the eve of the inauguration, after all.
Winter of Our Discontent is a dark and bitter brew. Winter came early in November, and it's going to last a long time. Which is why this porter has an extra "kick": a high alcohol content. Drink it tonight with friends and comrades.
