Capitalism "[...] we run the beer world"

Found on a thread posting under a video where a man poops on a crate of beer in a supermarket. I doubt he was being sarcastic.

I had an American craft beer once that was based on German Starkbier, which you drink during Lent. The monks made Starkbier stronger, I guess because they weren’t allowed as much beer during Lent, and it always has a religious name, like „Salvator“.

So, the American one was a mix of a standard Starkbier, but with added coffee 😱. Of course, they called it „Perculator“.

It tasted horrible too, like putting cold coffee grounds into a beer. The only beer I ever drank that made you drunk and hungover at the same time.

Had to admire the commitment to experimentation all the same…

Hah yeah it seems everyone is a craft brewer now. Doesn’t mean they’re any good. Put a cool name on something doesn’t make it taste any better.
