This Penn entrepreneur has got something way sexier than beer

UPenn and Cider and St. Patrick's Day and Ted WerthEarlier today I posted about a Penn alum with his own beer blog.

Now, as I continue to celebrate St. Patty's day and everything alcohol-related, there's another Penn alum who has his own alcoholic drink you'll want to  know about which is "like beer, but not beer".

After the jump, more about this alum ...and the sexy, bordering on NSFW marketing campaign that may make you gasp!


A Penn Alum splices together his love of crafty editing and craft brews

UPenn and St Patricks Day and beer

Sure you may remember your undergrad days celebrating at some UPenn Basement party or coming up with ingenious ways of transporting alcohol across Penn's campus like this man.

But now that you're a bit older and wiser on this St. Patrick's Day, you may have a bit more discerning taste in alcohol. That's why I thought I'd share with you a beer blog created by one of our Penn alums who loves himself a good beer.

After the jump, learn more about this Penn filmmaker's beer site, his top 4 posts and the craft beer he's been brewing.

Tonight one Penn alum roasts another Penn alum

Whitney Cummings and UPenn

If you haven't seen the ads yet, tonight a whole slew of misfits roast Donald Trump (W'68) on Comedy Central (10:30/9:30c).  I'm sure you can safely expect jokes about his hair, his marriages and all of the products he's put his name on.

At first I was a bit surprised Trump was such a good sport, but then I realized this is more great promotion for THIS monumental endeavor of his.

After the jump, check out clips featuring Donald's fellow Penn alum Whitney Cummings (C'03) roasting both Donald and "The Situation", and then Donald himself roasting Snoop Dogg!


Get married at Penn like these couples - part deux


UPenn weddings


Last month, I came across some great wedding shots on Penn's campus of a couple who actually met at Penn (turns out you could actually get married at Penn!)

Since I posted that article, another couple who met as undergrads at Penn came forward with some great wedding shots on Penn's campus.

After the jump check them out!

News flash, this Penn alum is crazy

UPenn and Saturday Night Live and SNL and Vanessa Bayer

If you saw SNL this weekend, you would have seen that Penn alum Vanessa Bayer (C'04) went downright "phrazy".

After the jump watch her 6 second bit which I thought you all needed to see!


The Penn alum musician wants to be a bitch, be she's just too polite

UPenn and Jill Goldberg
After the viral lady gaga cover she did, Jill Goldberg (C'04, Dischord A Cappella, Penn Choir, Wind Ensemble) has been hard at work on her new album "Girl, Polite".

The album just dropped and she's got some real catchy music on it with some interesting backstories.

After the jump, check out her new music video for "Not Worth It" and her anthem on how to be a stronger person.
