Making Beer

"He was a wise man who invented beer."
•Plato

"Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants to see us happy."
-- Benjamin Franklin

"You're all wanking sissies if you even think about using a grain mill, teeth, or ball-peen hammer. A real brewer uses 17 vestal virgins stomping on the grain in a large wooden vat. And yeast is for losers. True brewers just dip one end of their dog into the wort to get things going." -- Drew Avis

"If my mother was tied up and held ransom, I might think about making a light beer."
-- Greg Koch, CEO and co-founder of Stone Brewing

Today our brew club made an Oatmeal Stout, so my PAD came from that.

Part of the November Challenge which is A Song, A Poem or A Proverb.
