Richard Fisher, the head of the Dallas Fed who has been critical of QE, used it in a speech earlier this year . Related: Gold is back en vogue as investors worry Sobering up: Recent turbulence in the stock market can partly be explained by the beer goggles effect. Investors have been dumping stocks found in the previously red hot Russell 2000, sending that basket of smaller-sized stocks into "correction" mode last week. That's Wall Street code for a 10% decline from a previous high. Smaller stocks are riskier than their larger cousins because their shares change hands less frequently, making it more difficult to buy and sell them.

German beer goes American to regain buzz : Entertainment
That puts the country third in the world, after the Czech Republic and Austria. Americans drink about 75 liters a year. German brewers who are currently celebrating Munich's Oktoberfest, the industry's highpoint of the year are hoping specialty beers can help change perceptions and lure back buyers year round. Radeberger Gruppe, Germany's largest producer, has begun selling craft beers with price tags that can reach 24.99 euros a bottle, such as the dark-brown 17th Anniversary Ale, made of 7 different ales matured in oak. The Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan , the world's oldest brewery started in 1040, now markets 'Infinium,' a beer developed in cooperation with Samuel Adams sold in a black champagne bottle. You can go even more individual than that. Holger Wirtz in May started Bierzuliebe , "beer to love," a website where you can create your own beer with your own preferences for hops intensity, alcohol level, liveliness and color have it brewed and shipped to you in a champagne bottle within a week. You can also order Bierzuliebe's house creations such as "Kehlenglueck," or "Throat Joy," for 9.95 euros. "Beer has great untapped potential," Wirtz said in an interview. "We want to make a premium product that people enjoy and celebrate instead of downing in a few gulps." Gaining traction with craft beer may still be an uphill struggle. Micro breweries currently produce 1 percent of German output, according to the DBB, the German brewers' association. While that may grow to as much as 3 percent, the craft beer boom won't reach U.S. proportions because German consumers already get their beer, even if mostly pilseners, from small- and medium-sized breweries that often sell locally, said Stefan Huckemann, a Munich-based partner in the consumer business at consultancy Deloitte. "The craft beer trend comes from the U.S., which didn't have the variety that markets like Germany and Belgium had for many years," Huckemann said. "It's nevertheless positive for the German market, which has been suffering from price pressure, as it will increase the perceived value of beer." Lemke, who started making craft beer in 1999, is adopting a more American-style logo for his Berlin brewery, where he's produced about 40 brews over the years. While Germany back then wasn't ready for his pale ales and stouts, it is now, he said.

Wall Street's beer goggles are clearing up. Now what? - Oct. 5, 2014
LA Galaxy forward Alan Gordon drinks a beer with fans after the game against Toronto FC. (Kelvin Kuo-USA TODAY The LA Galaxy beat Toronto FC 3-0 Saturday night with the final goal coming from Alan Gordon during injury time. After the final whistle blew, Gordon celebrated his achievement by going over to the LA Riot Squad supporters group and drinking a beer with them to the delight of a row of children behind him. His blast from outside the box was certainly worthy of a cold brew, though. Have a look... Though Gordon added the exclamation point at the end, the match was more about Robbie Keane , who scored the first two goals, and Landon Donovan , whose assist on Keane's second gave him the league's career assist record (136) to go with his career scoring record (144) as his final season before retirement nears an end. Here's the volley that gave Donovan the record and Keane his brace... Given the night's many successes for the Galaxy, it seems unlikely that Gordon was the only one celebrating with a beer before going home. - - - - - - - Brooks Peck is the editor of Dirty Tackle on Yahoo Sports.
