    A bunch of hilarious replies. I knew everyone could make a "grave" topic interesting and funny.

    I'm going to do a black and tan. Top half dissected and cremated with Black Boss Porter as fuel. Bottom half buried with Avery White Rascal for the Hell of it!

    Someone wanted to take beer to the delivery room and now someone looking forward to being buried with it.

    Man--some folks need to find some other things to do.

    I'll focus on my time here. Do you really want your kids saying--there goes dad and he's got his beer with him?

    Sheesh.

    While technically a columnburial, I want a sucaba in there with me.

    If I remember right, someone is buried in MN with a 2007 Surly Darkness. In a few years I think I know where to get an extremely well "cellared" 2007 Surly Darkness. :slight_smile:

    No. The reason? When you're dead, you're dead. No more tasting, no more thinking, no more wanting or desire. You cease to exist. This is why I don't have a cellar, for we don't know what tomorrow will bring. Which reminds me of a poem from Thomas Hardy: A meeting with Despair.

    Ahh...I'll be that guy. Have "you're" spelled correctly in your obit. I would mourne your loss while secretly in my mind correcting your grammar. You don't want to be remembered like that. OK, sorry for the douchiness.
    Otherwise, I like your plans.

    I don't really think I want to be buried, but this idea is funny

    I will make sure I note that grammar need not apply in my forum topics. That way we can save ourselves from reading those corrections.

    Beer?! When my body (and most likely my liver) fails to operate, my corpse will (hopefully) find its way into the nearest dumpster...no burial, no fanfare and no worldly possessions to take to the afterlife...much like those gentle creatures that meet their untimely demise being struck by some 1/2 ton, 4-wheeled warrior...that is how I depart.

    There's something about the OP's avatar that really completes this thread.

    If they go back to open fermenters, I want some corked Chimay red slipped into my coffin. It would be great to pop them open after the resurrection. If they don't go back, I would like some Loterbol blond to take their place.

    I don't want anyone drinking beer at my funeral, cause I know what they will do on my grave!
