Drinkin' and readin'

Jacket Copy (the LA Times book blog) links to a Jeff VanderMeer post about which beers go with which books. Both are fun and are worth your time.

I was going to try to come up with a few pairings myself, but I realized that starting with beer 2, I really can't read any more. I can look at words and turn pages, but nothing sticks. So the only thing I can add is that the best beer for reading a book you don't like is the 120 Minute IPA from Dog Fish Head. After one of those you will be so polluted you won't care what you are reading. Not that you will remember anything.
