Beer History for Nerds
Hey you! What are you doing tomorrow night? That's lame. You should instead go to Ann Arbor's Live nightclub, 102 S. First St., at 7 p.m., when my brew pal Patti "Teacher Patti" Smith will drop the knowledge of beer history on you at the latest installment in the Nerd Nite series. For a mere $5, you can learn all about everyone's favorite sudsy beverage, from Mesopotamia to the modern mug club. And also some other stuff from other speakers, but you don't care about that because beer.
Most importantly, I'll be there slinging copies of my galactic bestseller, Ann Arbor Beer: A Hoppy History of Tree Town Brewing, and for an extra pat on the back, I'll even sign it for you.
See all you dorks tomorrow night!
Thanks, friend! I have been practicing in the car driving to and from work. It gets kind of weird when I get to the point where I introduce the book and then gesture as if you are really sitting across the room from me.
