Native Lager is brewed and bottled at Indian River Beverage in Melbourne, FL exclusively for the Native Brewing Company in Fort Lauderdale. Likely an ideal beer for an afternoon spent soaking under the Florida sun, Native Lager is not exactly something the natives should be overly proud of.

When you’ve got too much time on your hands the littlest things in life tend to amaze you. I’ve been reading the newspaper quite a bit as of late. Just trying to do my part to keep the industry up and running, I suppose…
A Penny For Your Thoughts
Another reminder of how our white [...]

When you’ve spent an entire life paving your own path there’s no reason to change the approach all that much at this point. It’s a lesson John Jackman has lived by over the past several years while following his instincts and bringing comic book characters to life through his own imagination.
His current recreations [...]

The talk show. Usually booked with talking heads that have very little to say. Leave it to the musical acts that get booked to make it all worthwhile…

Anytime Atmosphere and their crew of Rhymesayers comes charging through your town there are two things that are guaranteed – cheap ticket prices and more bang for your buck than you’ll find at a titty bar. Seriously, just show up and let Slug do all the work from up on stage then proceed to close the deal [...]

“Sometimes I miss prison.”
It’s all true. Your life is as fucked up as you think it is. And there’s company, too. How do I know? People are sharing some of the darkest shit their minds have to offer through (not Twitter, Facebook or MySpace) a little project called PostSecret.
“Knowing you don’t [...]

It’s time to face the facts – your favorite baseball team sucks and you still don’t have a job – and this ever-present realization is why the beer hasn’t been tasting as good as it once did. Maybe we need some football. High school football, Arena Football, something. Got to shake it off. Get back [...]

Didn’t know what to expect upon taking in my very first live “country music” show over the weekend. Especially once the Hispanic bouncer at the door asked if I was packing any knives as he patted me down.
But even that wasn’t as shocking as the mosh pit that broke out down front. Or [...]

Please, stop me from rambling on and on if you’re already familiar with this particular automobile device. It blinks, to the left and to the right, with the idea of alerting other drivers on the roadways of your intentions to either turn or switch lanes.
Ironically enough, it’s called a turn signal. It’s conveniently [...]

When it comes to Mike Tyson the train wreck is never bad enough to make you want to turn away. Except for maybe that time Lennox Lewis made him bleed from inside his eyelids back in 2002. Throughout the past three decades the true human drama unfolding before you is as real as reality television [...]
