Kick back! Relax! Tell a joke or two! Have a brew !
The BAR is OPEN!

We've got Eye candy...Mind candy...and Chicken soup for the soul!

Today, we're going to look at

MORE  BEER TYPES &

BEER COCKTAILS

 

Specialty Beers

Steam Beer

In the 19th century "steam beer" was a nickname for local beers that were fermented with lager yeast, at ale yeast temperature, producing beers with ale-like character. It may also have been common practice to "top off" kegs of beer with beer that had not finished its first fermentation. The result was an in-keg fermentation that produced high levels of natural carbonation. With no refrigeration to control this fermentation a freshly tapped keg would produce copious amounts of foam or "steam."  

Herbed/Spiced
Every year, since 1975, Anchor has brewed a Christmas Ale. It is produced in small quantities and is available only from late November until early January. Each year the recipe is changed and there is a special label designed around the tree, a traditional symbol of renewal. Properly refrigerated, this beer remains drinkable for years.

 



Smoked Germany’s Kaiserdom, a good example of this style, is brewed from Bavarian barley that has been roasted over a fire of moist beech wood logs. Whole Hallertau hops are used to provide flavor and aroma. After bottom fermenting, the beer is lagered for three months. The finished product is a dark-colored, smoky-flavored beer.

Otoberfest
A fairly strong beer, Paulaner Marzen’s brew starts with a two-mash process using dark- and light- colored brewing malt from two-row Bavarian summer barley. Hallertau hops are used for both bittering and aroma. Lager yeast is used and the beer is allowed to lager for approximately four weeks at just-below-freezing temperatures.  


Dry
“ Dry” refers to the amount of residual sugar left in a beer following fermentation. This type of beer is fermented for longer than normal brews so that practically all of the residual sugar is converted into alcohol. The result is a beer which consumers describe as having a crisp flavor, clean finish and very little aftertaste.


 

 

Beer Cocktails

Some would consider it sacrilege to put anything in your beer... but for those who don't, or those who want to know what these names are all about.. here's a list of the more popular 'Beer Cocktails'.

Shandy
A favourite ale mixed with ginger beer ...

Lager and Lime
Generally used with a light lager with a splash of lime juice or Rose's Lime Cordial.

Lager and Black Current
A favourite lager with a shot of Black Currant flavouring (Ribena).

Snakebite
A mix of a "beer of choice" and cider. Another version of the snakebite is a mixture of stout and cider.


 
BEER BLOODY MARY
Beer Bloody Mary
Ingredients
12 oz. chilled beer, 12 oz. tomato juice, Dash Tabasco, Dash Worcestershire sauce,

Instructions: Combine ingredients;
pour over ice in old-fashioned glasses.


 
Black Velvet
Would you believe Champagne and stout beer! Apparently this is considered a classic beer-based cocktail.

Red Eye
Any ale or lager with a shot of tomato juice, also known as Tomato Beer or a Red Rooster and if hit with a splash of Tabasco sauce, becomes a Ruddy Mary.

Gator Beer
Gatorade and your choice of lager or ale (This one was clearly thought up by the Gatorade corporation).

Caribbean Night
Your choice of beer mixed with coffee liqueur.

South Wind
Your choice of beer mixed with melon liqueur.

Depth Charge
A shot of whiskey is dropped in a beer, glass and all.

 

NEXT WEEK?

Who knows what evil lurks in the minds of me!

This thread is NOT advocate under-age drinking!
Rather, it is for the well-seasoned Sailor or Service Person to undertake these DANGEROUS tasks!

 

Excessive consumption of BEER may cause the consumer to do STRANGE things!

No beers were harmed in any way in the construction of this thread!

My "kittie-kat" BRUNO sez...


DON'T DRINK & DRIVE!

I feel I MUST apologize for today's thread!  I feel TERRIBLE about this!  PLEEASE accept my most sincere & deepest sympathy for this most grievous offense!

I wanted to do a thread on arranging flowers, but, alas, something compelled me to post the thread that I did.  I don't know what came over me...perhaps next Camp Run-A-Muk WILL feature

FLOWER ARRANGING  & HOW TO MAKE JAM!
 

Or, perhaps, I WAS CLOWNING AROUND!!!!!

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

After the funeral, the priest said, "I don't think you'll ever find another man like your late husband."

And the wife replied, "Who's looking for one?"

Joke:

This Pole got married, but he was too dumb to know what to do on his wedding night.

"For God's sake, Stan," said his bride, "you take that thing you play with and you put it where I pee."

So he got up and threw his bowling ball in the sink.

A Stone In The Mouth

Read: Proverbs 18:1-8

A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. —Proverbs 18:7

Bible In One Year: Genesis 43-46


We would all cringe at the thought of a mouth full of gravel. But a stone in the mouth can actually be desirable—at least that seems to be true for the cranes that inhabit the Taurus mountains of southern Turkey.

These cranes tend to cackle a lot, especially while flying. All that noise gets the attention of eagles, who swoop down and seize them for a meal. The experienced cranes avoid this threat by picking up stones large enough to fill their mouths. This prevents them from cackling—and from becoming lunch for the eagles.

People have a problem with their mouths too. The writer of Proverbs said, "He who guards his mouth preserves his life, but he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction" (13:3). "A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calls for blows" (18:6). How many of our troubles could be prevented if we would learn to control our tongues! How much of the heartache we cause others could be avoided if we would guard our speech!

Are you having a problem with your tongue? Try this: Ask the Lord for His help. Think before speaking. Let your words be few. Following that formula can be as effective as a stone in the mouth. —Richard De Haan

Lord, help me watch the words I say
And keep them few and sweet,
For I don't know from day to day
Which ones I'll have to eat. —Anon.

Mind what you say, or you might say whatever comes to mind.
