If you live in the US you might have noticed a program on the Discovery channel last year called "How Beer Saved the World." The basic idea is that beer is responsible for nearly every bit of progress that humans have made since the dawn of civilization. For everything from the wheel to modern medicine and almost advancement in between, we have beer to thank.
It's out on DVD now and the company marketing it sent me a copy. From the first email to the press release and then on the DVD box and plastered prominently throughout the program was that "quote" from Ben Franklin that you know I tend to go on about a little too much. My expectations weren't high. But, the film is actually quite entertaining. Was it accurate or even believable? Check out my review here.
