FOOD TRENDS Presidential Beer NDUE – SAVOUR THE FLAVO MIFROMA FO R! M any traditions are born in the White House. One that President Barack Obama has cultivated is brewing beer at home, a time-honored tradition in America. Pulling on the expertise of the White House historians, President Obama learned that George Washington brewed beer at Mt. Vernon but no other president had ever done so at the White House. So he purchased the equipment himself and asked the resident chefs to donate their time to develop White House Honey Ale, Honey Porter and Honey Blonde in the basement. They obliged and even added honey harvested on the Great Lawn, giving it local flair. Word traveled fast and the public demanded a look at the recipes. The White House finally released them and Brooklyn Brewery made an early attempt at re-creating the presidential beer; it got the Brooklyn, N.Y., brewery's vote as an excellent brew. Maybe the president will find a second calling in the specialty food industry.
