BS: Beer beer beer

Subject: BS: Beer beer beer
From: Sttaw Legend

Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."

Beer is alcohol. Alcohol is your enemy. But the bible says you should love your enemies...

Found on the wall of a pub in Portaferry:

Beer is not a matter of life or death.
It is much more important!

Tampa used to have it's own brewery. Ybor Brewing Company, but it closed it's doors last year. The beer is still being brewed, however - in Melbourne, FL on the east coast.

By the way - I dislike nearly all bottled beeers, prefering to have only premium draught beers.

What say you all?

Am I missing something, or is this song not in the Digital Tradition?

Beer, Beer, Beer

Chorus
Oh, he must have been an admiral, a sultan or a king,
And to his praises we shall always sing!
Look what he has done for us, he's filled us up with cheer.
The Lord bless Charley Mopps, the man who invented beer, beer, beer!
Tiddley, beer, beer, beer.

A long time ago, way back in history,
When all there was to drink was nothing but cups of tea
Along came a man by the name of Charley Mopps,
And he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops.

A bushel of hops, a barrel of malt, you stir it around with a stick
The kind of lubrication to make your engine tick
Fourteen pints of wallop a' day will keep away the quacks
It's only eight and six a pint and one and four in tax

The Clancy's Bar, O'Reilly's Pub, the Hole-in-the-Wall, as well
One thing you can be sure of, it's Charley's beer they sell
Come in all me lucky lads, eleven o'clock she stops!
Five short seconds now, to remember Charley Mopps.
1 . . . 2 . . . 3 . . . 4 . . . 5 . . .


Mostly based on the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem version.

Four worms were placed into four separate jars.

The first worm was put into a jar of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a jar of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a jar of sperm.
The fourth worm was put into a jar of soil.

After one day, these were the results:
First worm in alcohol - dead.
Second worm in cigarette smoke - dead.
Third worm in sperm - dead.
Fourth worm in soil - alive.

Lesson:
As long as you drink, smoke, and have sex, you won't get worms.

I hope you've noticed how close Beer in Devon is to Sidmouth - you can walk there along the coastal path, and it's all part of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast site.

On the CD (recorded by El Greko) of the Herga club's 40th birthday party last year, Mac McKay sings the song about the Benskins Brewery (Watford) worker who fell into the vat and drowned. The chorus goes "In the beer, beer, loverly beer, up to his neck in great barrels of beer." I think the song was written by Colin Dipper - then a resident singer at the club, and father of John (of Patterson, Jordan, Dipper and No Man's Band).

Herga, you should have told me 3 years ago, when I cycled along there (coming from Plymouth through Exeter, Clyst Saint Mary, Newton Poppleford, Bowd, and Sidford to Beer).
It was a hot day, so I went for a short swim - now I can truthfully say I swam in Beer ;-)

After too much time indulging in Beer in Devon, you may find yourself nearby in Putts Corner. (Even if they don't know the correct spelling is -- putz.)

And I sit here surrounded by over 500, sadly empty, beer bottles, all different, and not a full one in the house!
