...Action Man Dick Cheney seems the antithesis of flamboyance. Stout, gray and slightly stooped, his speech measured and monotonous, he comes across as someone who would shun risks. And yet there are stories. There is Cheney the teenager in Wyoming, attaching a rope to the hood of a car and taking turns with his friends water skiing down irrigation canals that ran parallel to roads outside Casper. There is Congressman Cheney in 1983, five years after his first heart attack and a year before his second, catapulting down a treacherous ski slope in Jackson Hole, Wyo., his red scarf flapping...
...Singapore's popular expat-heavy Brewerkz, (65) 6438 7438, micro has gone macro. The 840-sq. m brewery, opened in 1997 by the son of a teetotaling Methodist minister, makes 10 different original brews, from Singapore Pale Ale to Oatmeal Stout to Millennium Lager, available in a yard-size glass for a whopping $20 apiece. Like many other large brewpubs, Brewerkz also sells its microbrews in take-out bottles?but only on the premises. "We haven't pushed it to the greater world because I don't want to compete with the 900-lb. gorillas," says managing director Devin Kimble...

...name of Herrera and Hornstine’s flagship brew, “Senior Tutor Stout,” isn’t a coincidence. A thick, dark, Guinness-like beverage that they describe as having a “coffee and chocolate flavor with licorice undertones to balance it out,” the beer got its title when their brewing operation was temporarily shut down by Pforzheimer House Senior Tutor Melissa Gray. The small Pfoho Belltower closet in which they were brewing turned out to be off-limits and was summarily locked up, as was the stout. Eventually...
Besides the Senior Tutor Stout, another of the beers entered is the Nahuatl Pale Ale. “Nahuatl”—pronounced NA-wat—is the Aztec word for rabbit, and this beer has a very hoppy taste, which the two call a “Sierra Nevada Pale Ale kind of style.” Their third and final beer is “Lou Brown’s Olé,” a Belgian-style brew. “We were trying to make a lambic ale,” Hornstine says...
