    What are some things you'd only hear from your fellow beer geeks? I'll start.

    "No, I don't mean that Michael Jackson!"

    From newer beer geeks. I've heard this a number of times.

    "I'd like a bottle of Pliny the Younger. Do you have some?"

    One time, the cashier said, "No, but we have Pliny the Elder today." That customer was disappointed.
