anyone got a recipe for a real working man's beer

[TANSTAAFB]

I wouldn't classify a wizard or magician as a working man.

Oh, I don't know. I imagine being a wizard is hard work what with the trolls and dragons and stuff. I would classify Gandalf as a working man [emoji92] [emoji93] [emoji94] [emoji95] [emoji287] [emoji298]

Anyone who casts a spell is a glam boy, not working man.

You have to slay dragons to be a true working class hero. Like Beowulf.

 

[Inkleg]

I'd say that the real working man was the poor peasant the had to remove said slain dragon and clean up afterwards. I mean you couldn't just leave them lying around stinking up the castle. What swill would he pour after a long day of slinging dragon innards? That's the real mans beer we're in search of.

 

[b-boy]

In that case, we're probably looking for a mead recipe.

[b-boy]

So you're saying you only have one testicle?

Indeed, sir!

Here are a pair of working man's pants to wear While Drinking Your working man's beer

 

[MaxStout]

These guys. Burning witches and such. Exhausting work.

That reminds me. I'll have another beer. A Poopeye Porter.

Scheissepheifen Stout. #stoutseason365

Last night I stopped by a local pub, and my brothers roofing crew was holding court around the pool table. These guys would probably fit the working man mold - Thing is they were all drinking Angry Orchard, and Mikes Hard lemonade. Perhaps we need a new course on the potential ingredient list - perhaps an apple/citrus/shingle grits/ graff sort of thingy?

In it's most common use, the word "führer" simply means guide or manager.
It doesn't mean what you think it means, and anyway you're more like the self-important underachiever of beer.

If you insist on a germanic title, I'd suggest "the Eunuch from Munich".

Drop a shot of old crow into a glass of Schaefers

Wow. ZZ Top look heaps different now they’ve shaved off their beards.

that was before the beards, think they grew beard to look more manly.

 

[Lefou]

I wonder if Brulosophy has an experiment for figuring the odds on how many beers it would take before a real man risked giving Dusty, Billy, and Frank package checks.

Jimmy Barnes says the working man drinks Victoria Bitter.
In that case its time I retired.

It works for these chicks, but not for hipsters.

When someone mentions real working mans beer, I always think of Yuengling or Narragansett.

 

[Curtis2010]

Make an English Porter. Here's one straight from Ron Pattinson's blog...

Historically, the original real working mans beer. If you wanna brew...this is it. Or, just buy a six pack of Bud for the USA equivalent. [emoji6]

 

[Ascencia]

Wow, will try this someday. Thanks!

I sometimes substitute part of the rye for chocolate rye for a more robust beverage. Love this stuff, either light or dark.

EDIT: Oh shoot, I see now this is still the recipe where I screwed up my efficiency and had to add extract. You can of course use a little extra pale 2-row instead of the 10 oz extract. Or whatever. It's all good.

For some reason, a bunch of my iron worker buddies drink Zima and Tequiza whilst standing around in hard hats. Myself, I like a nice refreshing, crisp Bohemia pilsner after a long day at the orifice.

Or an ice-cold shandy, after doing the yard work. In a tall glass, with a little lemon twist. There's a workin' man's beer.

..Or a radler, a real one, freshly poured half lemonade/half beer. It's like an Arnold Palmer for men. Intended to refresh bicyclists (rädler) without dulling their senses, IMO radler is a legit sports drink.

OR... "kalt muschi"; half beer, half red wine. Translates as "cold p___y" (name for a cat)
