Outstanding post! Thank you immensely Sunkenciv!

My pleasure. GGG has been a regular microbrewery of stories lately.

Phil Harding of Time Team would heartily agree:

A cool book:
“A Sip Through Time, A Collection of Old Brewing Recipes contains, in a single illustrated volume, over 400 documented historic recipes for ale, beer, mead, metheglin, cider, perry, hypocras, wines, etc., dating from 1800 B.C. to modern times.”
Stay out da Busches! :-)
I’ve never tasted alcohol, but observing a few sections of Cardinal and Cub fans watching a game together, a beer turns everyone into chatty friends.
Dilly dilly!
Yeah ... it has been known to make otherwise nondescript women & men much more attractive to one another.
I remember one episode where he was dumbfounded that the only local village had no pub. :^)
Jobs, bread, circuses.
“Beer has saved civilization more than once.”
Conservatives drink beer and smile.
Liberals drink vinegar; they call it wine. They frown.
And all this time I thought that Amerindians could not tolerate firewater. One day coffee is bad for you. The next day the report comes in on its health benefits. Nothing stays the same.
