I still think it'd be hilarious to see the look on your face when you end up in the Elysian fields...

"Step right up and spin the Afterlife Selection Wheel!"

I don't think pouring beer and washing up in Valhalla would be too bad, although it would be a little too much like my real life.

C.S. Lewis believed that your future eternity in Heaven or Hell would reflect backward so that this life would be an extension of it - i.e. you would have been in Heaven or Hell all along here on earth.

All indications are that the eternity will be spent on a new earth, one without all the problems of this one - problems caused by sin. I can't speak to beer. I know Jesus turned water to wine but that's a minefield I won't step into right now. But it will probably be a lot like your life now except without the clouds and pain. EVERYTHING will taste great and be less filling. The colors will be rich and vibrant. The sounds will be divine. Relationships - well, our current shadow versions are so poor in comparison that I don't have words for good ones.

It will be something like the far green country that Gandalf mentioned, only moreso.

LOL... I think you’d look great with a spear propped on one shoulder keeping a hoard drunken Einherjar in line.
