On the 40 things to do before I’m 40 list is to drink all the beers on the GQ beer list. You would think this would be one of the easier (and enjoyable) things to do but honestly, the reason I haven’t tried most of these beers is because I simply can’t find them! Below is the total list. The beers in red are the ones I haven’t tried yet and in black are the ones I have. It’s on my 2012 goal list to drink 20 this year. Let me know if you find any of the missing beers in your neck of the woods (my birthday is in April if you were trying to think of a gift to get me…)
