Baxter and I didn’t have much excitement for WSU’s trip to Los Angeles to face USC before this season. After the first three games, like many Coug fans, our outlook has changed. The Trojans look seriously flawed, and Wazzu looks much better than anticipated. Now, a win at the Coliseum seems possible.
In honor of that—and we’ll get to the reason in a second—Baxter has picked Second Death from Holy Mountain Brewing in Seattle as his beer for WSU’s tilt with USC. Second Death is a helles-style lager. It’s crisp, it’s refreshing, it’s crushable.
Holy Mountain is one of my favorite breweries, and its releases come and go quickly.
