Nobel gas separation would be cool, I wish I knew the business end of things. I now make all my own beer and cider and soon vodka. I will eventually get set up to buy grains in giant bags so I can get the costs down further.

When you dont have to buy the beer and just pick up the pizza costs are fairly manageable.

I stopped eating pizza and most fatty fast food 3 years ago. I still drink beer though, but maybe one for dinner at the most.

Beer is always a hard thing to give up totally.
But two is all I need. A good beer is well worth the extra calories.

Now we are mostly just like any other state unless you get off the road system, and sadly those folks don't have much of a voice in Alaska anymore.

I just can't believe how many upscale bakeries, bars, coffee shops, ice cream brands, etc keep popping up and taking off. You can get a fancy coffee anywhere you go but finding someone to work on, say, fur, is like pulling teeth.

The good news is the newcomers do tend to leave after a few years when the novelty wears off.

Nonsense. There are pleny of real second and third generation Alaskans in south central,

Yea and why would you, it you make a light beer its not that bad or a hard cider. Depends on how dry you make it. If you are drinking a bunch of heavy stout you might have weight issues but a few light beers or ciders no.

I don't drink girl beer. I drink man beers.

I bet you like men too "I don't like girl genitalia. I like man genitalia."

Not in a sexual way. But I have make and female friends.

Never understood drinking **** water and calling it beer. To each their own. I like dark beer. I like stouts. I like porters.

However, my comment was made more in jest than in truth.

I would truly like to see the data on how many of them there are. I'm putting my money on them being a minority.
