Being a "good" Catholic from New Orleans, I give up light beer for Lent... 
So you give up light beer but keep drinking the dark ale, huh? BTW, we're from the same area (Northshore here).
Happy Mardi Gras!

Needless to say Lent is not very difficult for me. I generally consider myself Catholic Lite. Anyway, Happy Mardi Gras to you as well. It was a long weekend between the parade I ride in and taking the kids out to the rest of them. Looking for some quiet time here at the office today, but unfortunately it is not quite working out as planned...

I found out recently that certain dark ales (calle bock and dubbelbock) were actually invented by Austrian and German monks specifically to be consumed during lent - solid food was abstained from during lent, but liquids were not, and bock beer is packed with nutrients. It gave them all the nutrition they needed to cary out their daily chores!
Check it out: German Beer
I'll give up moderating my dubbelbock intake
