Beer Drinkers’ Lament

This entry was posted on Jul 14 2008

Empty Grolsch bottleLast night, I reached into the fridge for that last bottle of Grolsch I had purposefully left in the nearly-empty box. I pushed aside the cardboard bottle separators and noticed that the box seemed incredibly light. Like 12 oz too light. The beer I thought I left actually never existed.

So here’s a neat photo of what it would look like after finishing the beer that I thought I had. To cheer myself up, I found some beer quotes from Dave Barry, compiled by the folks at TastyBrew.com. Enjoy!

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.

When I heated my home with oil, I used an average of 800 gallons a year. I have found that I can keep comfortably warm for an entire winter with slightly over half that quantity of beer.

All other nations are drinking Ray Charles beer and we are drinking Barry Manilow.

- Dave Barry

Beer drinkers rejoice!

  2. Cool photo , but ewwwwww Beer is just not for me, anything foamy and has alcohol in it makes me sick. Hard liquor though, specifically vodka, I could get down with. :)

  3. I guess I am out of the loop too, since I don’t drink… a popular t-shirt in Wisconsin says

    I only see this shirt on Christians I know… :0) Wacky Lutherans and their beer drinking ways- I think I am the only hardcore Lutheran I know that does not drink!
