Centenarian Edgar Moore says downing almost 63,000 pints of beer has kept him young....This means at 100 he's sunk 62,780 pints and spent £87,000 on beer at today's prices. That's alot for something that you only rent.......

I gotta say, as a homebrewer, this is INSPIRING! I think I'll be toddling off to the brew shop for some supplies, in honor of this gent!

"There's nothing like having a natter with the lads and a laugh with the barmaids. I've got a dodgy knee, but I still manage to walk half a mile backwards and forwards to the pub at lunchtime."
This guy's my new hero. Since he has such a head start on me
I better go get started if I want to catch up.

I am in favor of daily beer drinking myself. I down two or three 12-oz bottles every day. Hopefully I'll still be drinking them 60 years from now when I turn 100.

The retired farm worker told The Sun : "I've enjoyed a couple of pints of mild every single day since I started work, and I think it's kept me young. His contemporaries who drank stout could not be reached for comment.

Benjamin Franklin 2. I (me, LibKill) drink beer every day. If you set eyes on me you would underestimate my age by at least ten years. Everyone else does.

The Beer Prayer:
Our lager,
Which art in barrels,
Hallowed be thy drink.
Thy will be drunk, (I will be drunk), At home as it is in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head,
And forgive us our spillage,
As we forgive those who spill against us. And lead us not to incarceration,
But deliver us from hangovers.
For thine is the beer, the bitter, and the lager.
Barmen.

You can live off of beer as long as you take a daily multivitamin . . . although I wouldn't recommend it

I haven't had a beer in over a month or so, after reading this post, I've all of a sudden got this craving...

Bourbon works faster and tastes a lot better.
