Three years of good beer in North Carolina

August 13, 2005.

We "Pop the Cap".

Governor Mike Easley signs HB 392, raising the cap on beer's legal alcohol-by-volume from 6% to 15%, leaving beer nerds throughout the state to rejoice heartily. A lot of hard work, many trips to Raleigh and the statehouse, and plenty of fundraisers throughout the state helped achieve our goal.

Has it really been 3 years since a dedicated beer run to Blacksburg or Richmond in Virginia has taken place? Awesome.

Has it really been 3 years since Chris fell in the middle of the state capital with 2 bottles of beer like some drunkard? LOL!
Man, how time flies.

Love,

Have you seen the rate of unwanted pregnancies, abortions, and academic suicides? It's skyrocketed since August 13, 2005!

I, for one, have enjoyed the absolute downfall of civilized society as a result of HB 392.
