Time to collect
Off and on, I offered to bet one cold beer that Bush would win re-election. So, the following people owe me a beer:
Kevin, committed here.
One of the Brutal Huggers (I can’t tell them apart), committed here
Chris, committed here
Xrlq, committed here.
Smijer, committed here.
Pay up, suckers. I like Guinness, Sam Adams, Miller High Life and Hefeweizen.

If they pay up all at once you have a nice little buzz there.

I’ll be back down over Christmas. I’ll buy you a beer then.

mmmm.. Hefeweizen…….

Which brand of Hefenweizen? Shiner makes a really good one. If there was a good way for me to ship Shiner Bock to you, I would. I don’t think you guys can get it up there.

They sell shiner locally. The Hefenweizen i get is, i assume, the name of the brand.

Hefeweizen is a type of beer, not a brand. It literally means “yeast-wheat,” and is characterized by the fact that they leave live yeast cultures in the beer, rather than killing them off. That’s what gives it its cloudy appearance. My personal favorite is this one.
I’d send you a bottle, but shipping alcohol is illegal in Tennessee, and besides, I don’t owe you one. 🙂

Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers! Four more beers!

Following up on Tom’s point, not all wheat beer is Hefeweizen. There’s also the non-cloudy, non-yeasty variety known as Kristallweizen. And then there’s Berliner Weisse, which tastes horrible by itself but mixes nicely with red or green syrup. (“Weiss” actually means white, but refers to beer made with wheat).
Confused yet? Have another beer.

And Dunkel-Weizen, a dark wheat beer, is one of my favorite styles.

Mine too, but I can’t find it anywhere. Even the Yard House, which carries roughly 130 kinds of beer on draft, doesn’t carry a Dunkelweizen. Bastards.

I totally owe you booze. I just have to think up a way to get it to you.

One method is to wait until Tennessee’s unconstitutional ban on mailing booze is ruled unconstitutional by the courts. Another is to make Uncle come to us to collect on his debts.

[…] excellent idea since at least three bloggers in this state owe me a beer to pay up for a bet. I guess we need to liberalize gambling laws […]
