Barley is the problem with beer, not corn. There will be less barley available to brewers.

You drink beer with out barley? Corn is crowding out barley acres, causing that price to spike as well. All beer is affected.

which is why biodiesel will be a non-factor in the near future. However, there are a lot beans around from South America and a large crop last year, so it isn't nearly as big a deal

Saw this elsewhere....


A 2006 government study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Americans drink an average of 22 gallons of beer a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles per gallon.
