Thanks for reminding me, is is now 3:04, so time for a beer............
Hilarious. Nice!
Made me into a dope, that’s for sure.
Oh pul-ease. Simple Pavlovian response to the taste by seasoned beer drinkers.
Try the same test with someone who has never tasted beer, and you won’t get the same brain response.
A Guiness a day keeps the doctor away, ten Guiness a day keep everybody away.
And all these years I thought I was drinking beer for it’s nutritional value.
Actually, I have conducted personal experiments and must say that some of the German non-alcoholic beers elicit a very strong dopamine response from my brain, and I don’t anticipate any alcohol effect.
OTOH, I don’t always drink beer but when I do, I prefer Guinness.
Read Guinness, sorry, long day, no beer.
Stay thirsty, my friend.
After all, who hasn’t smelled beer and wished for heroine, or glue, or maybe some paint to sniff. Really!
I picked a hell of a week to stop smoking.
Try as I may, beer can't make my liberal friends intelligent, or understand basic common sense.
I have to admit when I was stationed in Munich back in the 60’s I would find myself lying in the street outside of the Hofbrauhaus. I still don’t know whether I was on my way out or merely overcome on my way in.

Wouldn’t it be cheaper and of course legal to just shoot beer into the veins? Besides, heroin gets no respect in emergency rooms around the world.

Great inspiration for a song there, country western.
Wait ... there’s two cases of Heiniken in the fridge on the deck. Oh, and a huge can o Mauna Loa macadamias... who needs Corona and lime when you have Heini’s and macs?
Jeez! It takes research to figure that one out?!
Correct. Classical conditioning (not operant). Would have been a huge surprise if this DIDN’T happen in conditioned drinkers. No reason whatsoever to do this study unless subjects who had never drank alcohol were included.
Beer always did release the dope-in-me.
