I recently subscribed to cable TV with a high-definition (HDTV) package. One of the channels, "Mojo", has a show called "Beer Nutz". Two guys go around the country visiting breweries and brewpubs, talking with the proprietors, brewers, and patrons. It would be my dream gig if I was both telegenic and independently wealthy!
