Washington Post's Beer Madness
« on: March 25, 2010, 08:27:53 AM »

I don't know if any of you have seen it, but the Washington Post does an annual beer madness competition to coincide with the basketball tournament.  Neat concept, if a little gimmmicky.  Check it out at:

Yeah, a co-worker sent it to me when it first started and I have been voting.  Yesterday I checked out who the "tasting panelist" actually were.  There's a link off of the bracket page.  What I found out was that it was just 8 people that "like beer".  Some of the panelist beers of choice were Yuengling, Bud Light... anyway, you get the idea. That part was a little disappointing, so take it all with a big grain of salt.  Still a fun concept nonetheless.
