Fine hops, top-fermentation, small batches. So far, the beers offered at bi-weekly Pub Nights in Loker Commons have been missing all of these characteristics. Brews in Loker start with one dollar drafts of Pabst Blue Ribbon, and reach their pinnacle at Heineken, Newcastle, and Corona. As a member of the Harvard Beer Society, the sorry state of the beer selection at Loker Pub Nights has watered down my enthusiasm. People go to bars because of the variety and quality of the drinks. And seeing as Pub Nights only serve beer, and not mixed drinks, better beer will attract...
...Popular rule is great for government, but in this case I was a little worried about the tyranny of the majority. My peers generally know as little about beer as I do about cosmopolitans, so I was afraid that these House votes would only widen the selection available in Loker to Dos Equis and, gasp, Red Hook.

Cabot House should be wiped off the beer...

And faced with two beers of the same price—one out of the ordinary—I believe many students would want to (and actively seek to) try something new.

...that lingers long after you sip it. Carbonation is light, and the taste is smooth. Drinkable, satisfying, and at six percent alcohol by volume more accessible than its brother, the 90-Minute (nine percent alcohol), Dogfish Head 60-Minute IPA would be a fabulous introduction to better beer for Loker-goers...
...numbers. Extending hours to 8:30 p.m. will allow for more flexibility and is the only fair way to ensure that students get maximal use out of their prepaid board plans. Other proposed solutions, which include giving students more BoardPlus money to use at campus eateries, expanding dining at Loker Commons, and extending hours at a few dining halls, are insufficient given the clear student demand...
