    Can anyone tell me why Ete Saison is such a popular name for craft brews?

    Ete means summer in French and it's mostly used with Saisons.

    What @Bitterbill said. Also, Saison's were traditionally brewed in the winter (before widespread refrigeration) and was drunk in the summer months.

    Aye. By the way Saison are the style in beer that needs to be drank very cold. More than any other beers.

    Y'all is now a piece of our American vernacular. I still want to know how wholenother became just a vocal/conversational phenomenon. I've never seen it written. But as to the Texas thing, I agree. I have many relatives in Texas that are not only super successful, but also less than humble. Understatement is generally a foreign language.
