"Colonel Sawyer Goes For a Beer" is about a military guy from the late 1700s who is tinkering around in his wine cellar north of New York City, takes a knock to the head from a falling beam, and wakes up in 2022. He goes for a stroll outside his wine cellar, and sees there is a brewery named Colonel Sawyer across the road from his house. So he goes for a beer.
The story ran in Beer & Weed Magazine, which pays more than the literary journals, many of which had said no to "Colonel Sawyer."
It was inspired by the brewery nearest my home, Captain Lawrence.
It is on page 26.
Enjoy!
