I will say this, it is very possible that anyone asserting that Asheville is Beer Town USA has not yet visited Bend, OR….

If the introduction of this beer is anything like the release of Pliny the Younger, then there is probably a line outside the Big Time’s front door as I write this. Consider Whiny the Complainer a tribute beer that pays homage to the great beer…
