So I’ve learned a few things about Mormons since being in Utah.  First thing is that the Mormon Church have a living prophet.  Yes, he’s alive and well and has a red telephone to Christ.  He even lives in Salt Lake City.  Thomas S. Monson — age: 82 years old, occupation: prophet.  Awesome.

I also learned the Mormon Church stopped condoning polygamy over a hundred years ago (a sect, the Fundamentalist Mormon Church, still does though).  Still, even if most the state doesn’t practice it, they drink it.

A beer brewed in Park City, Utah with the slogan “Why Have Just One?”, Polygamy Porter is probably the best named brew this side of the Rockies.  The label’s a classic and the beer ain’t half bad either.

Regardless of whether Prophet Monson would also allow women to enjoy a six-pack of Polygamy, you should all definitely grab one — or many — the next time you’re in town.  Cheers to that.
