    Even though I once tended bar (in a former life) the only thing I knew about bitters was the standard hangover cure, which I may have used once or twice. It's terrific that someone came up with this idea. Adam seems like a great spokesman and will be even better when he improves his delivery a bit. After that I look forward to seeing him on the "Today Show".
