Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day.
Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.

Now, that is a good one... How true

When you go fishing with a baptist, how do you stop him from drinking all your beer? Invite another baptist.

Slow night and someone may have had a suggestion for another option to try I said I hadn't found anything I could drink yet but I'm still open minded.

Perfectly reasonable, I hope you find something you like as much as I like the beers I like.

Last time I I saw someone orderer one of those, I said, I guess if you are not going to drink, I shouldn't either.

Well, it might be (slightly) better than water...

Speaking of which,

Has everyone here been blessed with having viewed "How Beer Saved the World"???

Terribly sorry to offend your sense of pluralization. Suppose the rest of us should refrain from chastising your clear lack of regard for the rules of period usage after every randomly typed thought.

Wow! You may want to go have a few beer and cool down.

How do you tell a Baptist from a Methodist ? The Methodist won't say hello back to you in the liquor store .

Q: Why should you never ask one Baptist over to watch football with you, but instead always invite two?
A: Invite one, he'll drink all your beer.
Invite two and neither of them will drink a drop!

That has been noted in some other brand labels also. Heinekens comes to mind. Lovely beer. Started brewing over here under licences and about all hat was the same was the name. Seems it left the nice green glass bottle and made its home in an aluminum can. From favorite to a non purchase.

I've heard Bass is another one that received the watered down treatment. I do still enjoy it though, and will order it over any mass-produced domestic.

Off topic, but one of the funnest experiences I had discovering new beers and ways to drink it was in Brussels where they have a glass shaped like a boot. If you drink it with the toe facing down, all is good. If you drink it with the toe facing up, you end up wearing the beer because an air bubble will travel towards the toe when you tilt the glass up, and then all the beer comes out all at once. Words cannot describe how much fun it was sitting there in the bar watching tourists come in and take a beer bath!!!!
