Since it's the first day of spring I thought it be great to kick things off by having my first official "Beer Friday." That means every Friday I will be posting a different brand of beer from Central and Eastern Europe. Today's beer is Beck's Premier Light which is a well-known international lager from Germany.
Enjoy!
