    Who was the scoundrel that handed that beer to an initiated?

    Is Guinness awful or not dark? Not everyone is taking a couple Rares from their cellars every night to drink. Some real high brow snobbishness there.

    Well ya see, Norm it's like this...A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

    Not exclusive to beer but great nonetheless:

    "I got this."

    My friend's final words before shotgunning our last ten fidy, downed it like a champ before promptly falling asleep. Great morning (we both work night shifts) :wink:

    From the label on Thomas Hardy's Ale:

    "It was of the most beautiful colour that the eye of an artist in beer could desire; full in body, yet brisk as a volcano; piquant, yet without a twang; luminous as an autumn sunset; free from streakiness of taste, but, finally, rather heady".

    I think you're being unnecessarily defensive and presumptuous. I have no problem with Guinness or people who drink it, a category that includes myself; it will always have the special distinction of being the beer that got me into beer. It is my experience, however, that people who have only recently begun to drink beer beyond Miller and Bud and want to sound as though they have tried more than they actually have will claim to enjoy "dark beers" but will be unable to mention any other than Guinness. (The point being that they could simply say that they like Guinness in the first place.) I didn't post the comment derisively (at one point I would have said something very similar when asked about my preferences), but rather because it's a comment I've heard countless times at my job and I find it a little funny.

    This one came to mind when I saw this thread. I can't too credit for it, I think it was BA who retweeted a Tallgrass Brewing Company tweet with this quote in it.

    Several years ago, I was drinking beer with friends. The female half of a couple had stayed sober enough to drive; the male half was hammered. At the end of the night, she said, "Well, I guess I'm driving."

    His response, with all of the inappropriate volume and inflection of the truly drunk, "No, you're driving!"
