[DrunkleJon]

Isnt that what your kid is for?

"Golden retrievers & yellow labs swim in the vats of beer, that's how beer gets that yellow color. Black labs swim in the vats to make dark beer."

I need someone to run the camera and to edit for me.

Well if you are ever in NE I would be happy to run a camera. The looks we would get would be a whole 2nd video. I am finally starting to get around some but the doctor I went to this last week was thinking I had had a stroke when I ran into him on my way to his office. If that gives you any idea about how well I am getting around now. Still way better than I was. I look like this when I start getting tired.

so, I ran into a fellow home brewer at MGM in Mankato, MN today. he had a bunch of Surly brews and I wanted to make a "Eepah" comment, but there was no one to record my jackassery. turns out the guy is an AG brewer and has been brewing for 22 years. helluva nice guy. I should have given him my number or some nonsense.

It's pronounced "eepah"? Damn, I thought it was "eye-pah." I've been mispronouncing it all these years. No wonder people at liquor stores snicker when I ask where they keep their eye-pahs.

Sounds like Billy has a man crush!

Guinness is so thick, you can use it in place of motor oil. And you will get better mileage since it has a ton of alcohol in it.

 

[JohnSand]

I actually read an article once in which the writer claimed to know a guy who ran his boat on beer in an emergency. He must have distilled it first.

"Guinness is such a good beer that they needed to start a book of the records it has broken, hence the now infamous Guinness Book of World Records."

 

[Cheesy_Goodness]

The hops we're familiar with today isn't the same ingredient our ancestors used in their beer. There is a now extinct insect that originally shared the name ("Hops") that used to be thrown in the boil to bitter beer. These hops were so named because they would hop, not unlike a grasshopper.

We don't use them today because even back in ancient times, everyone was into IPAs and the insect quickly became extinct. The hops we use today are generally accepted by the beer council as a poor substitute, but they work fairly well given the circumstances.

Boy this thread certainly jumped both feet into the gutter fast.

Fast? It was up to post 75 or so. I thought it was dragging.

"Guinness is such a good beer that they needed to start a book of the records it has broken, hence the now infamous Guinness Book of World Records."

Well, actually ... The "Guinness" in Guinness world records is the same as the brewery. The book was started by Sir Hugh Beaver, then the managing director of Guinness Breweries, to settle bar room arguments.

I don't think that was the "funny" part.

The relationship between the beer and the book is pretty common knowledge.

The idea that the book was started specifically to house records about the beer being great is mildly humorous.

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

OK, good, that's what I'd hoped, but I wasn't quite sure. I only just learned the link myself a few weeks ago.

 

[Kirkwooder]

I had no idea that there was a link between the two, I just thought that linking them the way I did would be slightly better than mildly humorous.

 

[Cheesy_Goodness]

For what it's worth, I thought the joke was a slightly mild humor with noticeable cheesiness on the nose.

Ha!

I'll be having that apology now, hunter!

Looks like I just got "well-actually'd" for "well-actuallying" a valid "well-actually".

I stand corrected. Can we still be friends?

[Billy-Klubb]

there shall be no "Well, actually..." in my thread. everyone involved line up against the wall with your hands behind your backs. berry punchings will ensue.

 

[Kirkwooder]

I have a 10 month old grand son, he doles out berry kicks regularly, do I still need to line up?

 

[smurfjuice]

They'll be no beano tonight ...

yes.

Well, actually, yes. You need to line up, to make sure the 10 month old won't miss. It's only fair.

 

[1977Brewer]

Billy if you need a break I'll punch a few for you. Just hold my beer and watch.
