Added a new beer to the list yesterday, Hersbrucker. Had it in the Porter House, covent garden which has beers from all around the world, i'd definately recomend it.
Hersbrucker
Alcohol by volume: 5%
Grain: Lager Malt, Cara Malt.
Hops: Galena, Nugget, Hersbrucker.
A classic full bodied continental style pilsner with an ample balance of lip smacking Hersbrucker hops. A soft, quality hop flavour with the matching subtly of fine malt and sweetness.
Gold Award, All Ireland 2000.
Speed Thrills, Boredom Kills!!
Dogfishhead 120 min. IPA (or 90 min)....Magic Hat #9...Magic Hat IPA... Sierra Nevada Pale Ale....Anchor Liberty Ale....I make a mean Helles and a fairly sinister Blonde as well
how you guys can list all your beers. There is no way I could even remember half the hundreds of different beers I have had in my travels and experimenting. In college we had a bar that carried over 150 different types of beer. For starters I guess I could ask them to send me a list because all 150 would be on it.
I'd heard this one before but the beer part was a new twist (& made it apropo for this thread)
Life’s Lesson Worth Remembering
The Mayonnaise Jar
When things in your life seem, Almost too much to handle, When 24 Hours in a day is not enough, Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 Bottles of Beer.
A professor stood before his philosophy class And had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students, If the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls.
He then asked The students again
If the jar was full.. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand And poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded With an unanimous 'yes.'
The professor then produced Two Bottles of beers from under the table And poured the entire contents Into the jar, effectively Filling the Empty space between the sand.
The students laughed.
'Now,' said the professor, As the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that This jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - your partner, family, children, health, friends, favorite passions and your Maker.
Things that if everything else was lost And only they remained, Your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter Like your job, house, and car.
The sand is everything else --
The small stuff.
'If you put the sand into the jar first,' He continued, 'there is no room for The pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.
If you spend all your time And energy on the small stuff, You will never have room for The things that are Important to you.
So..
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
In fact regularly keep shining up those golf balls as we too often neglect those that are most important to our continued and long term happiness!
There will always be time
To clean the house and fix the disposal.
'Take care of the golf balls first --
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'
One of the students raised her hand
And inquired what the Beer represented.
The professor smiled.
'I'm glad you asked'.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a Beer or two with one of your friends.'
Please share this with other "Golf Balls"
