: 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.
