Around The World in 80 Beers

In my massive apartment clean-up I have come across the fabled Around the World in 80 Beers passport from Bottlescrew Bill's.  As long as they remain open, I will go down in Bottlescrew infamy as a successful member of the 80 Beers club.  Feb 22, 2008 - Julie McGavin.  I should quickly say, the challenge was to drink 80 worldly beers in a year, and record them all in a passport.  Not much of a challenge but it worked, and we went back to the bar many times that year. And now for your reading pleasure, I will list off the 80 beers.  Yes, Stella is on their twice, but it's not my fault they changed the menu and moved it.  I only caught this mistake after the fact.  But technically you didn't have to drink 80 different beers to win, as one of my coworkers was drinking 80 Stellas Around the World.  I think he made it to 12.  In no particular order, as they appeared on the menu.
