JOHN BAR-LEY-CORN
a personification of barley used in
malt liquor itself, or of any intoxicating liquor.
For countless
years the Tuck community has been deprived of its infatuation with
beer. All year long the Tuck community works hard and what do
they have to wind down with at the end of the day? Wine?
Scotch? Fine spirits indeed, but some people want a cold
frosty beer to savor as they reminisce over the week and look
forward to the weekend. We here at the John Barleycorn Society
believe that it is time for this "prohibition" era to end.
Allow the John Barleycorn Society to quench your thirst for
knowledge about the beer industry, your thirst for information about
home brewing, and your undying thirst for quality crafted beers from
national breweries and a vast array of unique local micro-breweries.
Who
