The Mighty Wall of Beer!

99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall...


The troll sidles up to you and cautions you: "Look, but don't touch." The foul stench of his body odor is causing your hair to curl.

A disembodied voice narrates as you step up to the collection:
This collection was started at the same time as my academic career at The Gerorge Washington University (which of course brings to mind the question of how I managed to matriculate at all). A great deal of the bottles were brought home from The Brickskeller, located in Washington, DC. I have personally selected (and emptied) each bottle in the collection.
