A local craft brewer has asked if Twain had a favorite beer such as Pilsner, ale or dark ale, hefeweisen, etc. Has anyone in the Forum ever noted a Twain mention of a lager or ale he favored? Brewer said there may be an event at a brewpub here in Carson City, Nevada, the city where in 1863 Sam Clemens first used the name Twain to sign a letter to the Territorial Enterprise, and the brewer wants to have an appropriate brew ready for it.
