Amazing Grace DVD

This evening I watched Amazing Grace on DVD. It was just released in that format earlier this week. I had seen it in the theater, and loved it. So I took the opportunity to see it again. It was just as good as I had remembered it.

It’s the true story of William Wilberforce, who led the fight in Parliament to end the slave trade. Good drama, compelling story, real events to satisfy the history buff, and some occasional humor. If you get a chance, you should watch this movie.

Paulaner Oktoberfest Marzen

Paulaner’s Oktoberfest Märzen pours a beautiful clear amber color and the original taste is quite unremarkable. Unfortunately, this beer has an aftertaste like medicine, which ruins the experience. I’ll be passing on this beer in the future.
