President Obama, Vice President Biden, Sergeant James Crowley and Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates just sat down for their much-anticipated beer in the Rose Garden of the White House.

The “casual” meeting of the President, his old friend “Skip” Gates, and the police officer who arrested him outside of his house on July 16 comes after an entire day of cable news anticipation for the “beer diplomacy summit.”

Earlier today, Obama said he’s “fascinated with the fascination” over the meeting.

Here’s the White House pool report, which includes which beers each man drank.
