I wonder how he was paid for all the lite beer he was making for those doing the public project works for the Pharaohs? Imported high octane brew from some exotic land?

Unfortunately I have found recently that beer causes gout.

NOBODY wants gout and if you don't know what it is, don't get it. It's a lousy way to find out.
