Price of beer on the rise
Filed under: Food
Bad news for beer drinkers: rising fuel costs and a rise of more than 300% in the cost of hops have led to a year over year increase of more than 4% in the cost of beer at retail.

My solution to this problem was simple.
I gave the stuff up.
Sometimes the worst problems have the easiest solutions.

No problem if beer foes up but the thought of Obama as President is enough to make people drink.

Beer up 4%? OK, that settles it. I'll simply write to Hillary and ask her to send me beer. I'm sure she'll take good care of me. She's promised me everything else, so why not beer?
