Obama Foodarama, the public portion of the digital archive of record about Obama Administration food and nutrition initiatives from the White House by Eddie Gehman Kohan, has this nifty article on President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama's mark on culinary.  They served homebrewed White House Honey Ale, made with a pound of honey from the White House Beehive, to guests at last year's Super Bowl party. 

Turns out no one, not even Thomas Jefferson, had done it before.  This won't make any campaign speeches in 2012, but it should.

Read the details (and they are copious!) here: The Obamas Make History With Homebrewed White House Honey Ale
