Funny things you've overheard about beer

[Kiichi]

It is not unheard of that draft and bottles version differ iirc. Geuze Tilquin is weaker on tap and Guiness usually stronger in the bottle too. Wonder if other examples exist.

 

[GrogNerd]

saw a video* about one of only 12 master penmen in the world and he's the youngest by 30 years.

he quotes one of the other masters, "you should study as much as you practice"

I think that applies to homebrewing, don't you think?

* and it turns out to be a friggin beer commercial, sponsored by Coors Banquet

 

[WilliamSlayer]

I gotta ask, what the heck is a master Penman??

 

[GrogNerd]

pen & ink

does stuff like this, all by hand

that is, in fact, an example of this guy's work

 

[GrogNerd]

and an example of my work

 

[slym2none]

I found the exit!

Wait, it wasn't a maze?

 

[GrogNerd]

I found the exit!

Wait, it wasn't a maze?

nope. 1 continuous path

trick is to find the other end

What? No transverse colon?!?

 

[day_trippr]

The other end is not an exit...

Cheers!

 

[Jwin]

My other end isn't an entrance

 

[slym2none]

You are not a maze.

 

[fuzzy2133]

You are not a maze.

How many feet of intestine does the average person have now? Sounds like it would look like a maze to me...

 

[slym2none]

The small intestine is about 20 feet long, while the large intestine is about 5 feet long on average.

So, 25 feet.

[slym2none]

Yes. Yes it is!

That little dot has a long way to travel to get out.

I once overheard a Marine in my platoon state that he didn't drink IPAs because they cause manboobs. I asked him why he though that, and he said because of the hops in them. I proceeded back to work and had a nice little chuckle.

 

[GrogNerd]

he heard that correctly

it's just bull****

Pretty cool but I never get those "magic eye" pictures. Wait, I think it's working....Is it a unicorn riding a motorcycle whilst juggling pandas?

I heard IPA's are gross.

 

[Brettomomyces]

You shouldn't hang out in the general beer discussion so much

 

[rlmiller10]

I heard IPA's are gross.

I would take a gross of IPAs. Hell, I will take almost any beer that if free...almost

 

[joe_four_strings]

It's not!

Oh yeah, I read that article earlier. Meanwhile, they flat-out say that even the big craft brewers like SA think that Super Bowl advertising is a waste.

 

[slym2none]

Were I a craft-brewer, I wouldn't shell out, what... $3 million for a 30-second ad for an event that is still mainly watched by BMC drinkers, either.

Agree up to the point of "mainly watched by bmc". Pretty much everyone watches the superbowl but most ppl are bmc drinkers.

That sounds like you agree with me totally, then.

 

[cyanmonkey]

Completely different takes. In his example the majority are BMC drinkers, in your example most are BMC drinkers.

 

[slym2none]

*lol*

To be fair, I was talking about beer-drinkers that watch the Super Bowl, not everyone that watches. Just for clarity's sake.

The the hipsters will just tell everyone you sold out.

Drops mic.

[amfukuda]

That is funny

 

[Trippel-A]

You have to be able to sell a ton of your product to make Superbowl advertising costs worth it. It's simple...

ECONOMICS!

I hear we're good at that kind of thing in here.

You know what to do. Commence the berry-punching.

not feeling up to berry punching today. I'll be handing out IOUs.

 

[orangehero]

What we need is a superbowl commercial to berry punch bmc and their customers showing how their soulless swill is brewed "the hard way".

Of course, Billy Klubb will be the spokesman.

Woke up hurting this morning. Watched the kids until SWMBO got home.

Went back to sleep. Feeling a little more normal now.
