J. Wilson, who was named Beerdrinker of the Year this past weekend at the Wynkoop Brewing Company, has gone through trials before. Last spring, for example, he lived for 46 days on nothing but water and dopplebock (a German style of beer) that a local brewery in Iowa, where he lives, brewed just for his fast. His goal was to copy what German monks from the 1700s used to do.
