    I just found out it is International Beer Day and I haven't celebrated yet. I think I will leave work early to pull a special bottle out of my cellar and crack it open. What is everybody doing, if anything, to celebrate this most important Holiday?

    There's also an international sauerkraut day, so it is safe to conclude that such days are for people who really have nothing going on.

    Mead and sausages or pretzels with mustard...sounds good to me. But I’ll probably just stick to beer.

    21st Ammendment's Hell or High Watermelon is the only beer I've ever not finished a sample size of at a beer fest. Terrible stuff.

    And yesterday was IPA Day. There's at least one beer holiday a month now, with some months have two or more.

    Beer day is every single day.
    Just another stupid day created so morning zoo disc jockeys and third string local news anchors have something to fill a slow news day.

    Since all beer made anywhere is technically international (silly name), all beer consumed today is fine. Unless you are drinking some outer space juice. Would hate to see the price on that hazy, moon-juice in a 4pack. :wink:
    Aw snap!

    Had a Space Dust earlier, now switching to a Trillium/J Wakefield Affogato (Italian coffee/ice cream stout) so I have the outer space and the international covered.

    OK, lemme get this straight. Yesterday was Beer Day and today is Mustard and Mead day. I could have a grilled sausage with sauerkraut (to cover me for sauerkraut day, whenever that is) and mustard, accompanied by a nice beer. I have a bottle of mead blended with late harvest Syrah and Viognier, all aged in bourbon barrels. I'll pour a glass and dip Biscoff cookies in it. Ahhh, heaven!

    What really irks me is that congress has not passed a budget on time in 25+ years, yet if you look at what they do, they manage to name post offices and designate national days on a daily basis. Screw that crap and do yer damn jobs!!!
