Me: Sure.
Iris: Can I drink pale ale? Can I drink amber?
(pause)

I think this has the makings of a children’s book…

It should be called “Are you my beverage?”

I like Rip Curl too, Mike, but I realized something disturbing about it. Last month we were on vacation at the beach and I was cooking for a large group of people and it was hot and there was lots of prep to do. “Can someone get me a beer?” I called into the darkness, and someone appeared with a Rip Curl. It was the perfect thing.
So when we got back I got a six of Rip Curl. And I’m drinking it, and I realize, hmm. No aftertaste. Not very dry. Little hop character. These are the same characteristics I make fun of in American mass market beer.
Yeah, it’s totally goofball to pick on a beer for being light and refreshing. But since I got back from the beach I prefer the rest of the Full Sail lineup, except for the IPA, because too many hops make me hopping mad.
Also, I’m drinking a Rip Curl right now for research purposes.
In conclusion, beer is good.
