What's Your Beer Personality?

www.blogthings.com/whatsyourbeerpersonalityquiz/


You Are Guinness ;)

You know beer well, and you'll only drink the best beers in the world.
Watered down beers disgust you, as do the people who drink them.
When you drink, you tend to become a bit of a know it all - especially about subjects you don't know well.
But your friends tolerate your drunken ways, because you introduce them to the best beers around.

I guess that's the reason for some 400 blends of ice cream. Yes, thank you for an interesting thread and I believe I am qualified to join in on the discussion. I should point out that it's been some 40 odd years since I tasted the last one, but I have a good memory, for the important things. Sometime during the 1940's I went to my first rodeo and just had to sit as close to the arena as possible. When the bronc riding started, things started happening, the riders were trying to hang on as the angry broncs did their best, bucking, twisting, snorting, swishing their tails and urinating. Being a slow learner, I didn't catch on fast enough and of course got covered with horse urine, face, hair, shirt, everything. It was a hot July day and as we couldn't afford handkerchiefs I used my sleeve and shirt front to wipe off and upon licking my lips I realized what it was. And it wasn't bad at all. Time went on and a short time later as I drank my first beer (Jax or Southern Select), I suddenly realized that as for taste, the beer and horse urine were a close call, could go either way. Maybe chilling the horse urine would improve its taste, somewhat. In case of any doubt, ask any veterinarian and he/she (the females are now in the majority) will tell you there is no danger involved. SF Marines, Gary Hall, Tyler, TX.

You drink early and often. Sometimes with friends. Sometimes alone. All the party needs is you! </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Hmmm I do mainly drink to get drunk, but I also have learned to like the taste of beer too. I don't feel too strongly about Corona. Bud Light is the personal favorite of my boyfriend and I.

You Are Samuel Adams

You're fairly easy to please when it comes to beer - as long as it's not too cheap.
You tend to change favorite beers frequently, and you're the type most likely to take a "beers of the world" tour.
When you get drunk, you're fearless. You lose all your inhibitions.
You're just as likely to party with a group of strangers as you are to wake up in a very foreign place.

Wake up in a very foreign place?
That could mean waking up in your next door neighbors home where a language other than english is spoken, couldn't it?:)

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now
be worth $49.00.

With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.

With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.

If you had purchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have $49.00 left

But, if you had purchased $1, 000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all
the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, You would have had $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily
and recycle.

32 Things You Can Do with Beer :beer:

The next time your bride complains about all the room it's taking up in the fridge, you could argue that it's not just beer, it's lawn fertilizer, a necessary kitchen-safety tool, and an integral part of a chess set.


And, of course, research shows that, in moderation, drinking beer has significant health benefits. It's time, gentlemen, to make beer an even bigger part of our world. Here are 32 new reasons to love it.


BATHE IN IT
Instead of sipping a beer, try soaking in it. Pour a bottle of German Badebier in the tub and lie back for a real bubble bath.



PUT OUT A FIRE
Although certainly not as effective as a real fire extinguisher, a can or bottle of beer can mimic one if none is available. Simply shake and spritz. After all, beer is mostly water. This works on small grill flare-ups, and some people have been known to carry an emergency can in their car in case of engine fire. Or at least that's what they tell the state troopers.



MARINATE MEAT
Beer is slightly acidic -- and that makes it an excellent meat tenderizer, says Linda Omichinski, R.D., a nutritionist. This allows you to enjoy leaner cuts that otherwise might be too tough. Beer also won't alter the meat's flavor as much as wine- and vinegar-based marinades do. Poke a few holes in the meat, put it in a Tupperware container (we know you have them) or a large resealable bag, and add beer. (English ale is great for beef.) Marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours or, better yet, overnight. Do not drink the marinade.



POLISH POTS
In days of yore, the last bit of beer from spent kegs was collected and used to polish the copper vats in breweries. Greg Smith, general manager of the Idaho Brewing Company, is keeping the tradition alive by using beer to put a shine on the copper-top tables in his Idaho Falls establishment. "Because of its acidity," he explains, "you can just pour some on, let it sit for a while, then wipe it off. It also works well on Revere Ware pots."



Wash your hair! Make your lawn greener! Pass a kidney stone
MAKE BEER BARBECUE SAUCE
Ingredients:

1 medium Spanish onion, diced

1 medium banana pepper, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 Tbsp capers

5 ripe tomatoes, diced

1 small can tomato paste

1/3 c each wine vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar

1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

2 Tbsp each Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, honey, Dijon mustard, horseradish, oregano

2 Tbsp fresh ground pepper

1 tsp cumin

Dash of ground clove

12 ounces amber ale or porter



Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and boil for 10 minutes. Lower heat and simmer about 4 hours until thickened. Cool and refrigerate for 24 hours so the flavors can meld. Then baste everything but the dog with it.



SHAMPOO HAIR
Not only is beer the remedy for a dull party, it's also the cure for dull hair. Dump a cup into a small saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Let it reduce until there's 1/4 cup left. This removes the alcohol, which can dry hair. Let the beer cool, then mix it with a cup of your favorite shampoo. Pour it into an empty shampoo bottle, then wash and rinse as usual. It'll give your hair more shine and luster.



If you don't like to cook, the Dogfish Head Craft Brewery in Lewes, Delaware, sells 10-ounce Beer Shampoo bars (made with its pale ale) that'll put a nice head on your head. The brewery also makes Beer Soap from its chicory stout.

LOOSEN RUSTY BOLTS
Pour some beer on them and wait a few minutes. The carbonation may help break up the rust.



CLEAR UP BROWN SPOTS IN YOUR LAWN
According to Andrew Lopez, a professional gardener, the fermented sugars in beer stimulate plant growth and kill fungi. He recommends spraying either home brew or Rolling Rock (both are chemical-free) on those annoying brown spots in your lawn. (Either that, or just stop peeing there.) "The grass will absorb the sugar in the beer and draw energy from it," Lopez explains.



STEAM CLAMS OR MUSSELS
Fill a large steamer pot with equal parts water and beer, then bring to a boil. Steam the randy little mollusks until their shells open. Couldn't be simpler. The beer imparts a nice flavor.



PASS A KIDNEY STONE
As you've undoubtedly noticed, beer is a diuretic. It helps flush the kidneys and bladder. This can be beneficial if you're suffering from a bladder infection or kidney stone. "You can drink water or cranberry juice," explains Dr. Alexander, "but beer also works. It helps dilate the ureters [the tubes connecting the kidneys and bladder], which may help you pass a stone quicker and easier. Plus, the alcohol will take the edge off the pain." But don't drink beer if you're taking antibiotics or narcotic pain medications. You'll render the drugs useless and make yourself sick.



BOIL SHRIMP
Open three 12-ounce bottles of Yuengling Premium or a comparable mild pilsner and pour them into a large soup pot. Wait for the beer to go flat (about 2 hours), then add 1/4 cup Old Bay Seasoning and 2 tsp ground turmeric (to turn the shrimp a rich yellow). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then cook for 5 minutes.




Meanwhile, rinse 2 pounds of extra-large raw shrimp in cold water and drain. Add them to the pot and stir. Cover and cook for 5 minutes, no more. Quickly remove the shrimp using a large slotted spoon. Serve immediately with cocktail sauce and, you guessed it, more beer. This same recipe makes great lobster, but cook it for 12 to 15 minutes.



KILL SLUGS
Gather a few empty salsa jars (or similar wide-mouth containers) and fill them a third of the way with cheap beer. Then bury them about 15 feet from your garden, girlfriend, or whatever you're trying to protect. Make sure the rims are almost level with the soil surface. For some reason, slugs love beer. They'll find the traps, drop in, and drown. Do this in the evening, let them party all night, and give them an honorable burial in the morning.



FIND DUE NORTH
Okay, here's the scenario. A bit far-fetched, we admit, but look who's going to be our next president. Let's say you're hopelessly lost in the wilderness, and all you have is a can of beer, a sewing needle, a small bowl, and a pair of extra-large silk panties. (Because this is a matter of life and death, the camp counselor should give hers up.) First, open the beer, pour some into the bowl, and let it go flat. (Better drink the rest; this may not work.) Next, magnetize the needle by stroking it repeatedly in one direction with the panties. This will generate a charge of static electricity. Then float the needle in the beer. When it stops, it'll be pointing in a north-south direction. Now get outta there!



SOOTHE TIRED FEET
Pour a couple of cold ones into a bucket and soak your dogs. "Ice-cold beer with lots of carbonation can be soothing for tired feet," says Dr. Alexander. Stop at two; you don't want to start staggering.



MAKE A BEER SLIDE
Forget volleyball and croquet. At your next party, lay a large vinyl tarp on a slope, then make it slick with lots of beer. Have your friends strip down to their underwear or swim trunks, get a running start, and slide downhill on their butts.



LOWER YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
John Palmer, a hypertensive home-brewer and engineer in Monrovia, California, puts a handful of dried hops or hops pellets (available at any home-brew store) in a coffeemaker and brews them with hot water. It makes for a bitter tea, but he claims it brings his blood pressure back to normal within 10 minutes by dilating the capillaries. "There may be something to it," says Dr. Alexander. "A person who's intoxicated is usually flushed and sweaty. Some ingredient is dilating the blood vessels, which, in turn, lowers blood pressure." We don't advocate this as a replacement for medication, though.



TRICK A CHEAP LANDLORD
Live in an apartment where the landlord pays the heat bill and sets the thermostat pretty low? Ice up a can of beer in the freezer, then set it atop the lock box that encloses the thermostat. The cold from the beer will trick the thermostat into thinking the temperature has dropped so it'll turn the heat on.



BAKE BEER BREAD
You already know how to put a bun in the oven. Now it's time to go all the way. Here's a healthful, foolproof recipe for high-fiber beer bread from the book Tailoring Your Taste, by nutritionist Omichinski:



Ingredients:

2 3/4 c all-purpose flour

2 Tbsp each sugar, baking powder

1/4 c ground flaxseed

1 tsp each salt, dried basil, dried rosemary, thyme

1/2 c unsalted sunflower seeds

1 Tbsp cooking oil

12 oz beer, at room temperature



Mix all the dry ingredients. Add oil and beer. Stir until dough is just mixed. Put dough in a greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pan. Bake at 375 F for 45 minutes or until nicely browned. Remove from oven and let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan to cool some more.

CATCH MICE
Slugs aren't the only pests with a fatal attraction to beer. According to Neil Herbst, owner of the Alley Kat Brewing Company in Edmonton, Alberta, you can also trap mice with it. He recommends setting out a few small pails or bowls of beer (his competitors', never his own), with a small ramp leading up to the lip. The mice will be attracted by the smell, hop in, drink their fill, then be unable to climb out.



TIE A FLY
This tip is from the book Curiosities of Ale and Beer, published in 1889: Mix beer, chimney soot, walnut leaves, and a little powdered alum in a small pot. Bring to a boil, then chill. Dipping any natural materials you're using in this solution prior to tying is supposed to make for a tighter, more attractive fly. No promises as to whether it will catch more fish, though.



CURE INSOMNIA
Greg Smith, author of The Beer Drinker's Bible, says women often show up at his brewery asking to buy not his beer but the hops he uses to brew it. "They sew it into pillows," he explains. "The smell of it is supposed to be a sleep aid, especially for colicky babies. I've never tried it, but we get enough requests that there must be something to it." Hops is a type of flower, though, so be careful if you have allergies.



MASSAGE YOURSELF
A full can of beer is a great self-massage tool, according to Dori Love-Bentley, a certified massage therapist. For instance, take off your shoes and roll a can underfoot. Or put one in the crook of your back or between your shoulder blades and lean back against a wall, rolling it around as you do so. It works just about anywhere -- quads, glutes, neck, calves. "The pressure loosens up muscle tissue," explains Love-Bentley, "and encourages blood flow to the area."



CALM AN UPSET STOMACH
Sipping on a highly carbonated beer can settle a stomach just like Seven-Up or Sprite can. Plus, the alcohol helps buffer pain. "I've never seen a true medical study supporting this," says Dr. Alexander, "but I have patients tell me it works. The only time you have to be careful is if you have an ulcer or gastritis. Alcohol can inflame that."



BUILD YOUR NEXT HOME
Earth ship, a house in New Mexico, has walls made of empty beer cans and concrete. Amy Duke, a spokeswoman, explains that instead of using forms for the cement, builders put down alternating layers of mortar and cans. You can do the same to create retaining walls for gardens and other landscaping. Earth ship also contains a thermal-mass refrigerator that uses full cans of beer as insulation. The cans line the walls of the unit, helping keep the temperature constant while minimizing energy usage. A ceiling vent allows frigid desert air to flow in during the night. The beer absorbs this cold, but never freezes because of its alcohol content. When the hatch is closed during the day, the beer releases the coolness. The same thing happens when you open one and drink it.



COOK RICE
Rinse 1 cup jasmine rice in water. Do it twice more, then drain well. Next, dump the rice into a medium-size pot and add 12 ounces of beer. (A nut-brown ale works well.) Bring the mixture to a boil, turn the heat to low, and cover the pot. Simmer for 20 minutes, then remove from the stove and cool for an additional 10 minutes. The rice won't be lumpy, and it'll have a nuttier flavor -- just like you after you eat it.



STOP SNORING
If your log-sawing is ripping a hole in your marriage, try this simple remedy: Get a pocket T-shirt and a 6-ounce mini-can of beer. Put the can in the pocket and fasten it closed with a safety pin. Just before you go to bed, put the shirt on backward. Research shows that you're more likely to snore when resting on your back. This little setup prevents you from rolling over. Plus, come morning, you won't have to get out of bed for breakfast.



BUILD A PLANE
No doubt about it, Duane Mathis is just plane nuts. A pilot and aircraft aficionado, he started building model airplanes out of beer cans about 10 years ago. Now, at his Web site(www.bcairoriginals.com) (http://www.bcairoriginals.com)), he sells the plans for eight categories of beer-can planes, including vintage tri-wings, helicopters, War hawks, and ones that actually fly. Brings new meaning to the term "getting buzzed."



ROAST CHICKEN
To make "Swampman Dan's Drunken Chicken," buy a few medium-size whole birds and a six-pack of beer. Drink half a can of beer, cut off the top third of the can, and add 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp pepper, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 2 Tbsp liquid crab boil, and 1 tsp creole seasoning.




Then shove the can into the chicken and place it in a secure, standing position on the grill. As the brew boils, it'll intoxicate the bird with flavor. Takes about 1 hour.


Compliments of Swamp Cookin' with the River People



ICE A HAMSTRING
Frozen or very cold cans of beer make great ice packs. Hold one against whatever is ailing you -- a sore muscle, a sunburned neck, a pounding headache. With an Ace bandage, you can even wrap a frosty 16-ounce against the back of your thigh. Or use a sweatband to strap a can near your elbow after a tennis match. "A metal can will transmit the cold very rapidly," says Larry L. Alexander, M.D., medical director of Central Florida Regional Hospital's emergency department. Just make sure to put some thin fabric between the skin and the beer can to avoid frostbite.

BUILD DELIGHTFUL PATIO FURNITURE
To start, you'll need:

About 65 assorted beer caps

1-foot square piece of 1/4-inch plywood

Four, 1-to1 1/2-inch-square, 18-inch posts

Four 12x2-inch strips of lattice

Four, 3-inch dry-wall screws

Some tacking nails

A tube of tub-and-tile adhesive



Simply screw the plywood to the posts, brace them with lattice as shown, and glue the caps to the top in whatever creative arrangement you like. Warning: Don't leave the finished table out in the rain, because the caps will rust.



TAME A WILD HAIR

A few drops of beer is sticky enough to subdue any sudden uprising on your eyebrow or scalp that you spot in a barroom mirror. Just wet your index finger and demurely slick it down. Think of it as Miller mousse.



SCALE FISH
Nail or glue three or four beer caps to a sturdy piece of wood that's roughly 6 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 1/2 inch thick. Keep the caps in a line and make sure the serrated edges are facing out. Then attack those fish.

I remember awhile back going on a fishing trip one evening to the aqueducts and waterways just ouside of Tracy, California. Everything was good to go; three guys, tons of bait, fishing gear all up to snuff, a ton of ice cold beer, Chevy El Camino all gassed up and in tune. Oh, he** yeah, this is going to be a great night to catch some huge catfish or maybe a striped bass or two and get away from the household for a bit (Giving the ladies a break, you know.)
Anyway, we all get set up to start fishing, start a fire, bring out the ice chest filled with beer, pop open a few, look at the stars, talk some sh*t and catch some fish. All is good until the weather changes. From the left side of the bank the fog begins to head our way. It's not just fog, it's wet and it goes right through any article of clothes, being water resistant or otherwise. It's like fishing in a freezer, miserable.
Then all a sudden those four eternal words spoken through chattering teeth fill the air, "Anyone want a beer?" Teeth are chattering, bodies are in fear of hypothermia, hands can hardly hold the fishing poles and here we are drinking ice cold beer and saying, "Ain't this the life!" And after that and a few more brews nature calls and it's a short hop, skip, and jump to the nearby bushes saying goodbye to the only warm fluid other than blood to leave your body.
"Ain't this the life!" doesn't sound good anymore. Undaunted, we fish and freeze until all the beer is gone. (This is what guy's do. Finish the beer.) Once home, we wonder, "Why didn't one of us numbnuts bring some hot coffee and brandy?"
The beer of choice that evening was Carling Black Label. I guess you could say that we got what we paid for. LOL

Sam Adams costs way to much for the second week of a pay period.
DelMar from El Salvador, Windmill or 3 Horses from Holland are about, if on sale, $10.00 for a 12 pack. Hansa from Dortmunder, when on sale at $5.99 for a 6 pack of 16 ounce bottles is one of the best beers aout there. Your'e luck if you find it at $5.99.
Call me cheap but I max out at $6.00 per 6 pack and $11.00 for a 12 pack, domestic or foriegn.

For you who have ever drift 'hunted' Steelhead you know how many months or years it can take to recognize the subtle tugs on your line of the Silver Ghost returning from sea. And you may not hook, let alone land one before you give it up for Bass. A retired logger from the Oregon coast died with an estimated 10k Steelie catches to his credit and although his Eskimo contained empty beers he always brought home plenty of fish steaks and a decent wage from busting his hump in the woods. Early in their marriage his wife told him he spent to much time on the river. He replied: would you rather i spend my life in the tavern with my brother?

No no no dear you just keep on fishing.:thumbup:

It was started by a German brew master, who moved to Mexico. I am not sure of the exact date.

Immigrant people of Germanic background brought another brewing style to Mexico, that made it the perfect combination with the expertise of traditional Mexican brewers. The first lager beer brewery in Mexico was La Pila Seca, founded in 1845 by Swiss immigrant Bernhard Bolgard. This was followed by the opening of the Cervecería Toluca y México, by another Swiss, Agustín Marendaz in 1865, and Cerveceria Cruz Blanca, founded in Mexico City in 1869 by Alsatian immigrant Emil Dercher. [1] Cruz Blanca survived well into the 20th century.

While at first, most modern brewers were small operations. By 1890, the first substantial industrial brewing facility in the country was built in Monterrey (Cervecería Cuauhtémoc). Four years later another large brewery opened in Orizaba (Cervecería Moctezuma). The industrialization of the Mexican beer business was on.

Prohibition in the United States in the 1920s significantly boosted the Mexican brewing industry as Americans flocked to border cities to purchase and consume alcohol. Several new breweries opened on the Mexican side of the border, including both the Mexicali Brewery and the Aztec Brewing Company in Mexicali, capital of Baja California.
