We knew beer was tasty, but who knew it was so darn interesting?

We've had beer on our minds lately with Bangor on Tap coming to town on Saturday, Jan. 16. So, with suds on the brain, we scoured the Internet to learn all we could about our favorite beverage.

For instance: Did you know that President Gerald Ford, Clint Eastwood and E.T. The Extra Terrestrial all had the same favorite beer? It's true! We hardly ever make stuff up.

Anyways, check out the video above for some other cool beer facts. And you'll learn a lot more about beer at Bangor On Tap at the Cross Insurance Center! The details are below.

The 2nd Annual Bangor on Tap – Saturday, January 16th with Session 1 from noon-3 p.m. and Session 2 from 6 p.m.-9 p.m. (VIP starting at 5 p.m.) Sample from more than 100 releases from some of America’s best craft breweries.
