Hey at least your friend's mom was trying! Im impressed that the lady did some reading so as to perpetuate a conversation on the matter.
Oh yeah, we actually had a good conversation about beer, and she seemed genuinely interested. She told me her favorites are porters and IPS's because she liked beers that taste like chocolate and/or dirt.
She was more interesting to talk to than the friend's boyfriend, who kept complaining that the Super Bowl commercials weren't funny enough.
I've definitely noticed a lot of people, including people I love and respect, seem to think that strong tasting (or strong tasting to the) = more alcohol.
One of my buddies (a PBR loyalist) after trying my new session IPA (4%, 70 IBUs) "Wow, that is so strong. I don't think I can finish this, I need to drive home."
Talk about a stupid. Not quite a comment, but my wife just implied her nails were more important than my 5 gallons of lager.
I was in the middle of racking a beer and our puppy was going nuts at the door to go out and relieve himself. I asked my wife if she could let him out, but her nails were drying and she basically shrugged me off! I was on my last gallon, but he couldn't hold it and pissed on the carpet. Now I have two messes to clean up tonight.
This past weekend I was sharing some Centennial Blonde with my neighbor. He told me it was like wine. He probably said it about 10 times. I still don't know what me meant!

I think I recall someone trying my apfelwein and saying it tasted like beer. Maybe because it wasn't sweet?
I had someone tell me a stout I made tasted like soy sauce. I also had someone else tell me that same night that the exact same stout was the best beer they had ever had. People are weird.
maybe they really, really like soy sauce
For some reason I alway get people satin that's high octane ( 3.5% beer lol) because people by me always look at it as moonshine. But they keep coming back to more!
I had one person ask if I was unemployed, and then asked if I was trying to avoid taxes

Cheers!
Nursing from the very teet of society?
day_trippr said:Hardly, son. Add up what I've paid in taxes over a 40 year career and most people would piss their pjs.
But reality is reality, no getting 'round it...
Cheers!
Sweet, I'm going to quit my job. It sounds like you can support both of us
I love avoiding taxes by homebrewing. Tax on booze in Canada is ridiculous.

5 gallons is impossible. You'd die of alcohol poisoning. 18 beers on the other hand is not that far fetched. I work with a guy that says he drinks 30 cans of bud every Friday and Saturday. When I played in a dart league, I would routinely drink 18 or more. Now that I'm married and have kids, I'm never out long enough to drink more than 10. I have drank a whole TAD bottle in one sitting though which is quite a bit. Maybe I should stop with my drinking stories now.
