: Dominion Brewery ... I thought we hashed over this yippie trash beer a month
: or two ago. In any event, a simple scientific analysis using the ETCs
: (Erik's Tastiness Coefficient) reveals the clear superiority of Nasty Bo
: and Dixie as compared with D.B.'s lager. For point of reference, the ETC
: is calculated using the following _very_ _complex_ _mathematical_ _equation_:
: 1
: ETC = ---------------------------
: Cost per 12oz. unit of beer
: For first hand study, I can report the following ETCs:
: brew ETC
: Schlitz ($7.99/24 less $2.00 mail in rebate) 4.01
: National Bohemian ($7.99/24) 3.00
: Erik's "Amber BloodAxe" homebrew ($18.99/54) 2.84
: Dixie ($9.00/24 estimated) 2.67
: Dominion yuppie lager ($7.00/6 estimated) 0.86
: Guiness Stout ($7.49/6) 0.80
: The above analysis reveals the clear and shocking inferiority of the
: Dominion product. Need I say more ...
You ain't a home brewer, bubba.
: On another topic, two weekends ago while checking out a sweet '72 Eldorado
: convertible (r.e., dc.forsale) somewhere in Arlington near 395, I happened
: across the "Weenie Beanie" - an gourmet dining establishment famous for its
: magnificent "hot bologna sandwich". Slurp!! Just like Mom used to make ...
: The Weenie Beanie does not have an inside dining area - instead, it caters
: to those who enjoy dining al fresco. Brought back many fine memories of
: Giant Burger - another highly regarded al fresco establishment in Oakland, CA.
With this to guide us, the Doggie Diners should be reopening in the
NoVA area. Or a fried pig's ear franchise. (;-)
: The Weenie Beanie - Highest recommendation.
