I'll try to affect a proper Aussie accent here to relate one of my favorite jokes;
How ees Budwhyzah loik miking love in a canoe?
Eet's fu**ing close to wootah.
I do. My Dad had an old Hotpoint fridge in the garage that sported a Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull belt buckle screwed to the front. Below it was stenciled "Dad's Medicine Chest".
Yes...he pounded a fair amount of beer in his day.
Ahh...lass...I met a Murphy's Girl one night in Cork Ireland and I won't drink a Guinness to this day if I can help it.
She was in a small bar down the street from the Cork Opera House (down in the corner as you walk away from the river Lee, if you've been there). She was wearing a skin tight black T-shirt, tight jeans and was passing out free chits for Murphy's. I tried one after chatting her up and...holy good gravy...it was divine. A bit...just a bit...more hoppy than Guinness.
I have found it on draft here in MA. Most noteably at John Stone's Inn in Ashland. So keep looking. It is out there and is getting popular.
Best 'cheap pilsner' I've ever had. $1.80 for a six pack at the base shopette in '93.
My favorite pilsner was
Well Boyo I was drinking Guiness for 2 days in Dublin with the in laws and then went down to Cork County where I was introduced to Murphy’s at a pub in Clonakilty. Also hoisted a few in Obrien’s in Sam’s Cross near Roscarberry where Mick Collins spent his last night. You could feel the ghosts sitting all around.
Brilliant....if I had the talent, I’d write a poem about that. The image alone is priceless: a Schlitz Malt Liquor Bull belt buckle screwed to the door of the fridge in the garage!!!
And the stenciling just is icing on the cake!
Love it!
(And love that he chose Schlitz Malt Liquor! Not Bud light!)
Why is Budweiser considered the same thing as having sex in a canoe?
Because they are both "f***in' close to water"...
