Brewery Business Hopping (Get it?)

Yes, the American economy sucks. But in the darkest of nights there still remains a single shining light that doesn't flicker. That light? Beer. My friend Carolyn just sent me this NPR article about the best thing America has going for it. Here is a quote from someone not quite American, but close to it.
“Drinking beer is part of your culture. Other products might be affected by the economy, but everything revolves around beer. When you're sad, you have a beer; when you're content, you have a beer.”
Juan Manuel Prado,
health and safety manager at the new Corona brewery in Piedras Negras, Mexico

When a beer factory can produce 7,200 beers a minute, we truly are living in the future. Wow.
