| On
the night of December 19, 2004 Owen Ogletree gathered together some
beer-loving friends for a party in Athens, Georgia to celebrate the
15th anniversary of
the release of the BBC/Discovery Channel Michael Jackson "Beer Hunter"
video series. In
attendance were: Owen Ogletree, Kerri Allen, Jean Andrews, Terri Ray,
Thel Melton, Gail Graves, Dean Graves, Jeff Rapp, Don Beistle, Diane
Beistle, and Martha DeHart. We watched all six episodes of the
series
and sampled some of the beers that were mentioned (see list
below). We
also took part in a trivia contest that followed each episode (see
questions below). Don Beistle won the trivia contest and was
awarded a
special, giant bottle of Belgian ale that was graciously donated by Five Points Bottle Shop
in Athens, GA. Check
out the list of beers we enjoyed at the viewing and test your knowledge
of "Beer Hunter" facts and figures by taking our trivia quiz listed
