Hall of Beers

So it’s about time the Sarge came back with a good ole stout…in time for summer, no less.

Not only to they baer the burden of copying bibles and praying for our sins, but they also furrow their brows constantly over the great responsibility of keeping the clergy and laypeople alike smashed at all times.
