For once, Willie, you're right -
"Old #38" really is kinda so-so. But I just discovered another beer – from Founders, the dudes that brew 'Old Curmudgeon' (the one that's named after John West and Tom Gildersleeve). Their new one is called 'Backwoods Bastard', and SFAICT it's named after another of our regulars here – Roger Wigwam's faithful Indigent companion, Steven Four-Knees . . .
