How One Beer Changed My Life Essay Contest

Draft Magazine, one of the leading beer magazines is hosting an essay contest that, to me, seems like a pretty cool idea. In 900 words or less can you tell the story of a beer that changed your life? Visit Draft for full details, including complete contest rules.
