The Obama White House has apparently been brewing its own beer, with aides yesterday (August 14th) confirming that there's a small brewery that makes beer that's kept in stock there. Reporters began questioning aides about it after President Obama gave a bottle of the White House brew to a patron at a coffee shop he was campaigning in Iowa. Spokesman Jay Carney told them, "There is a home brew, if you will, at the White House." The beer, named White House Honey Ale, comes in both a light and dark variety, with the honey portion of the beverage taken from First Lady Michelle Obama's garden beehive.
