Favorite Beer Labels, Part 2

Check out the cans for New South Brewing's Nut Brown Ale



New, empty cans for New South Nut Brown Ale at New South Brewing Co. in Myrtle Beach last night. New South has made Nut Brown and distributed it in kegs for many years, but this will be the microbrewery's second canned six-pack, the first being its famous White Ale. Distribution should begin in mid-June!

What I've Accomplished So Far This Summer

I'm feeling pretty good about my accomplishments since the end of the semester.

So far, I've:

1. Sneezed with my eyes open....

2. Recited lyrics to "Stairway to Heaven" entirely through belches....

3. Slept all night then didn't get up in the morning....

4. Went to karaoke bar and sang each 3-second pause between songs on Kansas' "Monolith" album....

5. Got several books from the library and posted them on eBay.

Stay tuned for more hard-hitting adventures. Target Daily Deals - Save Over 30% on Men's C9 Watch Assortment
