isn't distilled wine = port?
Port is fortified wine, not distilled - although it may be fortified with brandy, which is distilled wine.

Although his information was disorganized and scattered, it wasn't completely all wrong.
You can after all distill beer. We call it Whiskey.
And isn't distilled wine = port?
In any case, he had the right ingredients to say something profound. He just didn't have the right formula.

cosmic sense.
and distilled beer isn't whiskey. no hops involved in that process.

Yes, whiskey is made from beer. Before distilling, it's even called... wait for it... distiller's beer. That's what is distilled into whiskey.
Even without hops, it's still beer.
That's my "well actually" for the day!
Checks out:
"...the definition of a beer under the IRC differs from the definition of a malt beverage under the FAA Act in several significant respects. First, the IRC does not require beer to be fermented from malted barley; instead, a beer may be brewed or produced from malt or from any substitute therefor. Second, the IRC does not require the use of hops in the production of beer."

Anybody got some recipes for a beer with a slightly sweet taste like pineapple?

This isn't really "funny," but it sort of is in a cosmic sense.
As you probably heard, Columbia SC and surrounding areas got hit pretty hard last month with serious flooding. Lots of homes and businesses were damaged, but one business, Yesternight Distillery, was completely washed away, as in the building they had for the business is no longer there. (gofundme here if interested)
They were located near a brewpub and a LHBS, which opened back up recently. I was in there yesterday getting some ingredients and asked the owner if he heard of any plans for the distillery reopening somewhere else. He hadn't heard, but he did talk to an owner of the distillery the day after. They were sifting through the rubble trying to save what they could, but everything from their latest batch to their beautiful copper still was either washed away or is unusable. But, they did find one piece of equipment intact. What did they find you ask?
...the fvcking hydrometer.
The entire building and heavy equipment was washed away and damaged beyond repair, but the damn hydrometer is one of the only thing that survived. You know, that thing that breaks so often that there's an official HBT count, which now stands at 2,084!
Thought that was worth sharing
Well it's almost the same thing, just without the hops. And yeah distiller beer they call "beer schnapps" but it could be a sort of hopped whisky if you Oaked it. Hops come through a lot since they are so volitile
I believe they ARE hopping whiskey now.
how tight they make their cuts.

The hydrometer merits retirement and a display case.

i was sitting in as the audio tech at a beer tasting event and heard a guy insist that the more hoppy a beer the high the alcohol content, and that hops=alcohol. FUNNY!

What is BMC? I've seen the term around, but never explained.

And to some on these forums, an empire that ranks somewhere between Sauromon and He Who Shall Not Be Named.
Did Budweiser ever end up being allowed to aquire Miller-Coors? I read an article about month or so ago that said they were trying to do so again. If it happens then the BMC acronym will take on new meaning. ...
And two misspellings of "Saruman." Get with it, nerds.
