Funny things you've overheard about beer

[GilSwillBasementBrews]

Co-Worker last night when talking with him about bottling some of my homebrew from keg for him to try.
"That's going to be stronger right? Since it's put in a bottle"

I think their biggest problem is calling magic hat 9 a wheat beer.

HA! I didn't even see that!

 

[Barley_Bob]

The problem is not with the beer, it is with your interpretation of what "crap" beer is. Your father in law just has a wide pallet. There is no crime in a person liking Milwaulkies Best Light and Saranac Pale Ale............ Yet! :rockin: However, We should lobby congress or something.

So, the opossum that eats my trash has a wide pallet - it's as likely to eat barbecue ribs as it is to eat moldy spaghetti.

There's a problem when, after tasting a beer you don't like, you throw out pils, honey wheat, and Leinenkugel's berry-weisse as preferable alternatives. The guy likes some very good beer, but he also likes moldy spaghetti. I think qualifying personal taste (in anything) comes down more to what we don't like than what we do like.

Billy-Klubb, I have to tell you: I'm teaching a Homebrewing class at a local community college, and on the last week (in two weeks) we're doing tasting and evaluation. Your Bud Lite tasting is going to get us off on the right foot! Thanks buddy!

I'm just happy to help!:rockin:


and this may be funny: I have decided since most people think beer drinkers fall into 1 of 2 categories (beer drinkers and beer snobs), I'm gonna just go ahead and and take it a step further. I don't like BMC's or BMC lights. I will not drink one if it's handed to me. I do not like mushrooms and will not eat a stuffed portabella if it's handed to me. I do not consider myself a snob. I must just be an a-hole. therefore I'm not a beer snob, I'm a beer a-hole. deal with it.


I'm still gonna review crappy crap and good crap alike.

I've seen mouse proteins do that to a beer foam.

Mouse proteins? Details

Yeah thanks, creeped me out on this comment a little too. It's definitely not the cleanest establishment I've seen.

I'll eat or drink anything that anyone hands me (as long as it's food). Does that mean I'm not an a-hole?

Not necessarily. You could be an obliging a-hole.

Too much information...

 

[brewguyver]

Saw this at a local place this evening...I guess IPAs (nor any of the multiple other non-lagers up on the board) aren't Ales...

Where in Pittsburgh is that?

Wait, what beer is the moldy spaghetti? The ones you don't like? The comparison is more like so r people like ribs, some like spaghetti, some like both.

It was at the Primanti's in the South Hills...

that just means you can have my share of BL. unless it's been cellared properly for 14 years.

Not necessarily. You could be an obliging a-hole.

I've got some Milwaukee's Best that has been in one of my pump houses for about 20 years. Cans at that, then again I never saw it in bottles. I would consider that about 30% cellared. Best is a finicky brew.

 

[unionrdr]

Or maybe because I'll drink Old Milwaukee Ice & Cheap vodka, I'm a cheap drunk?

if the cans aren't bulging, I'll review one. hahahahha!!!

I had to pour a beer to read Qhrumphf's interview. only thing on tap right now is my Chocolate Oatmeal Stout.


edit: wrong thread. let chaos reign!

 

[krackin]

I'm having a frosted mug of lemon extract right now.

 

[n240sxguy]

A guy I work with was talking about the section of the beer garden he got to run at BBQ on the River a couple weeks ago. It was sponsored by Schlafly. The Schlafly guy was trying to tell him how to correctly pour a beer from the tap. He told him he poured many a beer from a keg in college, like he was a professional. I told him the difference was the beer he was serving this time was actually good, and was supposed to have a head on it: you weren't supposed to use your finger to kill the foam.

What about a 20 year old bottle of bad frog? I have 8 of them.

Just looked Bad Frog Beer up ..... willing to trade for one of them?

 

[2drunk2]

Properly cellared. You can see the dust.

 

[Black Island Brewer]

Don't disturb the dust! I understand it helps with the effervescence or some such...

 

[2drunk2]

Good call. I'm guessing that the mango hop aroma is going to be amazing.

 

[BeerGrylls]

Do it froggy style.

 

[unionrdr]

Do I hear the old Bud commercial here with the 3 frogs?

Maybe we need to look into some vintage cellared beer trading. I've also got some same era Rolling Rock that is bulging but that is just for personal use. I needed to that that brag factor out there.

I remember about 20 years ago the Bad Frog girls were in a bar in metro Detroit and my dad dragged me there to see them. They were homely and the beer was bad. But I got a t-shirt
