"Golden Pilsner" by Fremont Brewing

Fremont Brewing's nice, light and refreshing pilsner.  Mixed reviews by the gang.

Remember to drink responsibly.

*******************************************************

Beat of the Week:

"Cyr" by Smashing Pumpkins

Billy Corigan and company are back with their new single and Cyr.  They trade in their traditional heavy guitar riffs for 80’s synths.  This refreshing new single is very reminiscent of a path started but not pursued after the release of a previous single "Eye" for the Lost Highway Soundtrack.
