| Beer Pong: The sporty drinking game | | 2008-05-09 11:17:00 | | If you're looking for a fun drinking game to liven up your party how about you try to play beer pong? Beer pong is fun and somewhat sporty drinking game. In beer pong, cups of beer are lined up at both ends of the table. There should be two teams and the object of the game is to land a ping-pong ball on the other team's cups. When the ball lands in the cup, the defending team drinks the beer on | | By: Pinoy Reviews | | |

| | Beer pong? | | 2008-04-25 16:51:20 | | Every so often, one comes across something (very often on the internet) which just makes you say 'what the...?!?'. Such an event happened to me today when I discovered beer pong. According to Wikipedia, this is a drinking game where ping pong balls are bounced into cups of beer which the opposition must then drink. How quaint you might say, but wait on... that's not the end of it, Oh no... there is a whole industry created around this with official beer pong tables available to buy and all sorts of other paraphernalia. After a little consideration, I think I'll wait for it to come out on the Wii.....

| | Cheap Beer in Somalia: Website Lists Prices of Pints Around the World | | 2008-04-21 10:39:15 | | Air travel is becoming more affordable and places that had been shut off from the rest of the world are opening up – like the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan for example, or Hamilton, Ontario Canada. But what good is visiting another country unless we know beforehand exactly how much a pint of beer will cost when we get there? Thankfully, UK tabloid The Sun helpfully directed the attention of its readers today to www.pintprice.com, a website that allows users to find out the price of a pint of suds in various places around the world.The website also lists the countries with the cheapest and most expensive ales in the world. Unfortunately, the cheapest beer, 10p (20 cents) a glass, is to be found in places to which your travel insurance is unlikely to extend, like the Congo and Somalia or locales so inaccessible that even the natives have forgotten how their ancestors made the trip originally like Tuvalu in the Pacific Islands.

| | How to make beer batter - fish recipe | | 2008-04-18 20:49:20 | | I must admit I love fried seafood and one of my favorite batter recipes is beer batter. It has such a lovely flavor and creates a delicious crispy coating on almost anything you can think of frying. I have personally used it on everything from fish to zucchini fritters and friends always comment on it's flavor and crispiness (and it is a great way to get your kids to eat their veggies!).For this recipe you will need the following ingredients:Plain FlourGround Nut Oil (this can be substituted with other oils)BeerSalt and PepperSpices (optional)Seafood to batterThis recipe is very simple, but it makes great batter. You will probably find that it makes better batter than packet batter and contains much less salt than the packet variety, which is better for your health.I recommend experimenting with different foods to batter as you never know when you will find a gem of a battered dish that you had never thought of (a bit like my Zucchini fritters).Beer Batter RecipeIt is all explained in | | By: The Ultimate Fishing Blog | | |

| | Hallelujah! Now Pass the Beer Nuts: Ministry to Open in Bar | | 2008-04-16 04:24:15 | | Barring getting lost on the way back from an after-hours bar and popping into one to grab a nap on the way home, it is unlikely that you will see either of the Shark Guys occupying church pew space on a Sunday morning. That said, this story did nearly cause a religious conversion of Paul on the Road to Damascus-like power. It was later determined that the bright lights we thought we saw and errantly attributed to a beacon from a celestial lighthouse were caused by a combination of dehydration and standing up too fast. Pope Benedict XVI (Return of the Robed One) is currently on his first visit to the US, which has the third-largest Catholic population in the world – this is a fact made most clear in Mafia movies in which gangsters, despite being pimps, killers and thieves of the worst order, can still be counted on to put on a clean shirt for little Antoinette’s baptism.

| | How To Brew Antioxidant Rich Beer | | 2008-04-15 04:40:00 | | My son sent me an e-mail about this brew that he found on Wikihow. It's a very interesting article and closely mirrors my techniques when brewing. Here's a snippet of the article.Beer is a source of readily absorbed antioxidants. Scientific studies indicate that the moderate consumption of beer, as well as beer-specific antioxidants, may help to promote cardiovascular health [1] and help to reduce the incidence of certain types of cancer.[2] Beer that is particularly high in antioxidants may have a longer shelf life, as it may be more resistant to oxidation.[3] This should result in higher quality, more stable sensory characteristics, such as flavor and aroma. Certain hop polyphenol antioxidants can also contribute to desirable foam stability. Beer is a complex beverage that is brewed using various ingredients and various types of equipment. Therefore, beer can be brewed to contain greater concentrations of antioxidants.If you want to read the steps on to make this beer, you can read | | By: Making Homemade Wine and Beer | | |
| | Blue Jays Fans Balk at Beer Ban | | 2008-04-14 04:35:56 | | The typical baseball game lasts about as long as The Godfather parts I and II, with long periods of inactivity punctuated by short bursts to the bathrooms to piss out all the suds used to down all the peanuts in the gallery. In these cheap seats, especially during a "pitcher's duel" (baseball parlance for when even less than the nothing that usually happens, happens) the combination of heat stroke and freely flowing beer results in normally staid Toronto fans turning into warring savages in the upper deck.Before the Jays moved into their cozy, retractable domed-roof confines, they occupied an outdoor stadium situated right by the lake, and on a typical opening day the "Boys of Summer" would be fielding ground balls in a snowdrift. During these lean years, it was nearly impossible to bear those temperatures without ingesting a Great Lake's worth of booze (picture the loogan in the accompanying photo clutching a stubby bottle of an aged Molson product and you'll get an idea of how 90 per | | By: The Shark Guys | | |

| | An Inconvenient Truth for Boozers: Global Warming Threatens Beer Supply! | | 2008-04-11 05:48:50 | | Many who saw “An Inconvenient Truth” left the theatre with one clear thought: I need a drink. The motivation for this would vary among viewers – for some it was the idea that they had just laid out their hard-earned entertainment dollar for the kind of thing that should have been on PBS, for others the combination of the dulcet tones of the former vice-president with all those bloody graphs and maps, and for others the impending doom that it preached was right on our doorstep. Regardless, it was nice to knock back a few cold ones when that one was over, blast the air-con, and content oneself with the knowledge that the globe was not that warm yet (this something that Canadians who suffered through one hell of a winter this year would also attest to).The causes of global warming are debatable –scientists, maybe hoping for an honorable mention the next time the Nobels are handed out, have weighed in on this one by suggesting that it is caused by everything from the Olympic Torch | | By: The Shark Guys | | |

| | Easy Beer Labels | | 2008-04-03 06:45:00 | | Normally I don't make labels for my beer (I mark the crown), but every so often I make batches of beer to give away. For those batches, I always like to make the bottles look attractive by putting on labels. I've always used Photoshop or Microsoft Publisher to make my labels and spent hours making them. I made the label above in less than minute at Beer Label Builder (sponsor of this post). Not only did I find this as a real time saver but if your making several cases for that special occasion you can have professionally looking labels. Price wise, Beer Label Builder is very reasonable and they also have quite a few styles to chose from. You can also upload your own custom label and have them print them for you. So, if your looking for some professional looking labels, give Beer Label Builder a try.My BlogsBeer Recipes – Making Homemade Wine and Beer – Wine Recipes

| | Root Beer Kegger: The Beer was Fake, the Breathalysers were real. | | 2008-03-31 12:19:17 | | This past weekend undoubtedly saw its share of keg parties in residential neighborhoods throughout North America. Someone's parents nip off to somewhere tropical to forget for one all-inclusive week the burdens of home, and return to wrecked furniture, raised insurance premiums and a permanently shaken faith in young squire Johnny's sense of responsibility.On any other day, we'd be chronicling the unholy aftermath of one of those parties (which mostly ends up on Facebook), or at least lending our support to the move to see drinking ages lowered and thus spare Ma Suburbs from having to discover a pile of forgotten a few months after the last foam has been sucked out of a keg.Today, however, we'd like to salute the actions of some Wisconsin teens (not the ones pictured here, who would indeed be arriving on a very short bus indeed if still attending high school at their ages) who threw a keg party on Saturday -- one in which 1919 Classic American Draft Root Beer was on tap.

| | Francisco Django Bustamante and Ramil Gallego Enter San Miguel Beer-Quezon City 9-Ball Championship Semifinals! | | 2008-03-18 15:11:22 | | Billiards in the Philippines is up for more excitement as Francisco Django Bustamante, the All Around Champion of the 2008 Derby City Classic and winner of the International Pool Tour’s 2nd Challenge Match, beat newcomers Carlo Biado and Russian Petiza to secure a slot in the semifinals round of the $30,000 San Miguel Beer-Quezon City 9-Ball Championship held at the Trinoma Mall in Quezon City! Ramil Gallego also overpowered both Rodolfo Luat, aka Boy Samson, and Dondon Razalan, earning him the second slot (of four) in the semifinals. Francisco Bustamante ended the upset runs made by Carlo Biado (9-4 in the 3rd round) and Russian Petiza (9-7 in the quarterfinals). It was Biado who stunned World Pool Champions Efren Bata Reyes, aka The Magician, and Ronnie Alcano, aka The Volcano, on opening day, while Petiza surprised everyone with his win over Alex Pagulayan, aka The Lion. Django Bustamante came through via a five-rack run from a 3-3 tie against Carlo Biado, winning the match in | | By: The AnitoKid Chronikos | | |

| | San Miguel Beer-Quezon City 9-Ball Championship at Trinoma! | | 2008-03-15 03:59:47 | | Chinese-Taipei is on the swing and is fast catching up with the Philippines as the leading powerhouse in world pool events! Such thoughts were further bolstered when 22-year-old Chang Jung-lin beat Filipino pool player Joven Bustamante in the opening leg of the 2008 Guinness 9-Ball Tour in Taipei. Another young gun, Ko Pin-Yi, beat a number of notable Filipino pool players, too! They include Dennis Orcollo, Jeff de Luna, Alex Pagulayan, aka The Lion, and Robert Gomez, 1st runner up in the 2007 World Pool Championship. And they’re not done yet! They also have Wu ChiaChing to bank on the wins! Thus, the Philippine pool and billiards scene faces an immediate concern – the rise of Taiwan as a world pool power and the need to find the heir apparent to two of the sports’ greatest players, i.e., Efren Bata Reyes and Francisco Django Bustamante. In light of these developments, the $25,000 San Miguel Beer-Quezon City 9-Ball Championship will be held on March 17-19, 2008 at the Trinoma Ma | | By: The AnitoKid Chronikos | | |

| | | Another Reason To Dump The Beer Pot: | | 2008-02-25 22:46:00 | | How much ever 40-something’s may proudly claim their beer bellies to be signs of prosperity and success, it may prove to be anything but. Recent research has pointed to a link between beer bellies and heart attacks. Unlike subcutaneous fat that can be easily melted off through exercise, visceral fat (beer belly fat) has been proven to be tougher to loose. The main reason is its occurrence in the human body. Visceral fat surrounds the internal abdominal organs and is embedded deeper than comparatively harmless subcutaneous fat. When large deposits of visceral fat builds up near the main organs in the lower abdomen, arteries begin to harden and may result in the clotting of blood and possibly a stroke. Diabetes and hypertension are known to plague those with a beer belly as well. There is one important aspect of visceral fat that cannot be overlooked. Excess fat is known to occur not only in the bodies of obese individuals, but also in the bodies of those who are of normal w | | By: Abdominoplasty Beverly Hills | | |

| | Zapping Away Beer Bellies: | | 2008-02-21 06:20:00 | | It is common knowledge that beer bellies are a bad and unwanted extension of the body. They tend to involve a risk of diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol and are also held to cause heart attacks. A lot of men turn towards plastic surgery procedures like tummy tucks and liposuction to get rid of the beer belly or menopaunch. While cosmetic surgery can reduce a beer belly to a significant degree, it has to be considered as last resort. Middle-aged men are advised to change their life-style and dietary habits before thinking of going in for a nip-and-tuck. Drinks like beer and liquor are calorie-rich, something that your beer belly doesn’t want. Even junk foods lead to a gradual thickening of the waist-line A calorie-free food and drink regime should be the first step to be considered before going ahead with a plastic surgery. While cosmetic surgery can help you with your beer belly, it should not be seen as a means to an end. Visit the Plastic Surgery Institute of C | | By: Abdominoplasty Beverly Hills | | |

A Filipino-made beer with Vitamin B took center stage during the gathering of members of the International Federation of Inventors' Association in Bangkok, Thailand, recently. Some of the inventions showcased by inventors from all over the world included chopsticks that double as a toothbrush and a hi-tech sandwich filling spreader. The crowd, however, made a bee-line to the beer concocted by Filipino inventor Billy Malang. Unlike ordinary beer, Malang's beer has Vitamin B. "All clear beers have no vitamins. It just contains alcohol, which is converted to sugar which gives you a big tummy, called the beer belly. So I brought back the Vitamin B to make beer a healthier habit," said Malang. Malang was among inventors from 27 countries who featured more than new 150 inventions in the gathering.source: http://www.abs-cbnnews.com | | By: Pro Pinoy | | |

| | Beer prices up! German consumption falls! Stay calm folks | | 2007-12-27 23:53:49 | | In our spare time, the odd hour of sobriety as well as professionally, we're not only "festive boozing consultants" (with carefully hand-crafted-in-the-garage business cards to prove it) but self appointed industry analysts taking the sector's pulse and checking for slow, shallow breathing of the type the gentlemen pictured here might experience if they kept up this activity for a protracted period.With the buzz from 2007 wearing off and the promise of a brighter and more prosperous 08 (our jobs have yet to be outsourced to humorists in India) we Shark Guys were ready to stagger into the New Year without tripping and falling on the panic button. However we’ve just smashed the protective glass case and wrapped a towel around a hand to stop the bleeding. This is the same hand that would’ve ordinarily been extended— palm out, to demand a traffic cop-like halt to a disturbing trend post haste, or slapped down in a Jeopardy-style buzz-in: "What is beer?: the correct response to the clue: ‘hops and barley prices have risen sharply over the last year, affecting the cost of this vital, lifeblood if you will, consumer staple.’ Our pulses quickened, and we experienced lightheadedness that could not be explained as the result of too many push ups when we confirmed that beer prices were indeed on the rise. This recently caused one of the biggest manufacturers, Anheuser-Busch, a sector benchmark, to raise prices of its mass-market undrinkable swill, Budweiser, to counteract the rising cost of ingredients. This will affect our bottom line, in terms of housewarming gifts, but also because of the trickle down effect to the makers of the high end stuff we ourselves consume. Speaking of which, in another disturbing trend per-capita beer consumption in Germany, once the world's largest consumer of the drink (and home to a world record, 1284 breweries), fell yet again—the eighth decline in the last nine years. This is of special concern to us, not only because their beer | | By: The Shark Guys | | |

| | | A storm in a beer cup (part 2) and Australian Open Day 2 Wrap | | 2007-12-14 04:43:13 | | If you are a regular reader you might remember a couple of days ago I talked about how Robert Allenby wasn't too happy about the bar on the 11th hole of the Australian open. This was his response: Robert Allenby produced some rare theatrics at the $1.75 million Australian Open, donning bright red earmuffs and pumping up the crowd before putting himself in contention for another Stonehaven Cup. Allenby fired a two-under par 70 at The Australian course to move to seven under overall, one shot behind West Australians Nick O'Hern (66) and Kim Felton (69). Defending champion John Senden missed the cut, joining Mark Hensby, Brett Rumford and struggling former US Open champion Michael Campbell on the sidelines this weekend. But all the talk was about Allenby's colourful display, the likes of which is rarely witnessed on professional golf's pristine fairways. Speculation was rife all week that Allenby, who is chasing a third Open to add to his 1994 and 2005 victories, would cop an earfu | | By: The Golf Blog | | |

| | Golf News: On course bars and the storm in a beer cup | | 2007-12-12 19:32:28 | | Two weeks ago Robert Allenby threatened not to play in his native country again after being heckled by three drunken fans during the Australian Masters. His comments since would hardly have helped matters. Stuart Appleby reckons his Victorian counterpart Robert Allenby would have been better off keeping his mouth shut about the galleries at this week's $1.75 million Australian Open. Allenby all-but guaranteed he would be heckled at The Australian course in Sydney, saying he has his earplugs ready for the 11th hole, which will come complete with its own bar. Not all players would have made a similar stance. Appleby, for one, would have kept his mouth firmly closed. "There's a lot of players out there, I'm not sure if the public's trying to target Robert," Appleby said. "It sounds like Robert's saying they will, which only heightens it.

| | Cups that runneth over: The portable beer-pong table | | 2007-12-07 06:49:39 | | According to the press release, "Bing Bong Inc. has paved the way for the entire beer pong industry" (our italics) with their "beer pong" accouterments.If you're unfamiliar with beer pong, consider this a public service announcement (or, to put it another way, one of the few instances we're ever 'pro Bono'--har, har, har).Before shunting your son, and especially your daughter (see pictures below) off to some third-tier state college where, influenced by this game and others excuses to get college-age women drunk, the only Varsity Letter they're likely to achieve is an "F", here are the rules. (At this point we should mention that we don't think we're taking liberties with standard procedure if you substitute the eponymous 'beer' with any other alcoholic beverage or recreational drug of your choice as regional differences are likely to come into play).Two teams take turns shooting ping-pong balls into a triangle of cups at their opponent's end of the table. When a ball lands in a cup, the contents of the cup are quickly quaffed. Each cup is systematically removed until one team sinks all of the cups on their opponent's side. The game is won by eliminating all the other team's cups and then as a clincher, if projectile vomiting and requisite stomach pumping has yet to set in, the losing team must then consume all the beer remaining in the winning team's cups. Unless you have a storehouse of ping-pong balls on hand for this one, the ball you are using will have presumably been all over the filthy floor where the game is being played, so we hope you're too blasted to give a damn when the time comes to down the losers' share of the beer.According to Bing Bong Inc., the "largest supplier of regulation [our italics again] portable beer pong tables in the world", the product offers "the convenience of taking this game virtually anywhere," if by "virtually anywhere" they mean, the privacy of your own home -- it's probably illegal to play in a public park or b | | By: The Shark Guys | | |

In addition to cocktails and bar drinks, alcohol is also used as an ingredient in cooking and as part of meals and menus through food-alcohol pairings."While wine, beer and spirits have always been part of the culinary arts and restaurant menus, specialty alcohol is increasingly popular right now," said Dawn Sweeney, President and CEO of the Association.

Peter W. Mischler, 48, was charged this week in Circuit Court with mistreatment of animals, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and disorderly conduct with a dangerous weapon.The complaint said Mischler came home Monday from hunting and became angry with his 22-year-old daughter for letting the goats out and making a mess. While she was talking on the phone to her mother, authorities said, he told her to tell his wife to bring home some beer, but his wife refused because she was already on her way home.He then threatened to shoot the goats, according to the complaint. After his wife arrived home, she and the daughter heard four gunshots."He shot both of them. He killed Flash, and the officer had to kill Chloe," the daughter, Megan Mischler, said in a phone interview Wednesday. | | By: ILL_Natured_gr's Blogger | | |

| | Patron Saint of Beer | | 2007-11-13 11:44:00 | | I just thought that this is pretty cool. A Patron saint for beer makers.Saint Arnold was born to a prominent Austrian family in the year 580. Even back in those days the Austrians were famous for their love of beer, and admired for their brewing prowess. Beer was a proud Austrian tradition that was not wasted on young Arnold. As a young man, Arnold entered the priesthood and began moving his way up that earliest of all career ladders. At the age of 32, he was given the title Bishop, and in 612 was named "Arnold, Bishop of Metz." (Metz is in France.) He is said to have spent his life warning peasants about the health hazards of drinking water. Water was not necessarily safe to drink during the dark ages, especially around towns and villages. Nasty stuff. Arnold always had the well-being of his followers close at heart. Beer, on the other hand, was quite safe. Arnold frequently pointed this out to his congregation. He is credited with having once said, "From man's sweat and God's love, beer came into the world." It goes without saying that the people loved and revered Arnold. In 627, Saint Arnold retired to a monastery near Remiremont, France, where he died and was buried in 640. In 641, the citizens of Metz requested that Saint Arnold's body be exhumed and carried from the monastery to the town of Metz for reburial in their local church - The church where Arnold had so frequently preached the virtues of beer. Their request was granted. It was a long and thirsty journey, especially since they were carrying a dead bishop.

| | Beer cheaper than water – And that's a bad thing? | | 2007-11-12 08:30:00 | | The UK’s Daily Mail, fast becoming The Shark Guys newspaper of choice in terms of rich source material, recently ran a lengthy double-byline investigative piece (full story here) into the rising trend of supermarkets selling their own brands of beer for less than their bottled water. This came hot on the high-heels of an earlier exposé into another alcoholic scourge: those midriff and visible panty-line revealing Facebook girls gone wild, (a story we covered here).The Daily Mail reports that supermarket chains Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Asda are selling their own brands of beer at 22p (US$0.46) a can, which is less per litre than it costs to buy the stores’ mineral water and cola, and, in what would seem to be pure hyperbole given the alcohol content of the beer is between 2 and 3 percent, “cheap enough to allow someone to get drunk for just £1” (more on how they sent a reporter out in order to prove that claim later).Competition between the three supermarket chains led to the | | By: The Shark Guys | | |

| | Buy Me A Beer | | 2007-10-26 20:46:43 | | I'm sure that most of you have seen this WordPress plug in, on most WordPress built blogs. And those who are using the plug in, are also using this phrase: " If you like my post, buy me a beer. "Now, some of you may wonder what can this plug in do? Is it a way to get a beer from your visitors? Will visitors have to really give you something to drink? The answer: No, it isn't a way to actually make your visitors or readers to give you a beer, for real. It is a way to ask people to support your blog, by donating you a small amount of money.All blog owners ( almost all ) use a way to collect some donations from their readers and visitors. Every blogger thought at an unique and even funny way to do it. They aren't simply asking for a donation, by saying: " Hey, I just need you to donate me $100.. " This because no one will ever donate a single cent, if they see that the respective blogger is begging for money. Instead, they use either a simple " Donate " button from PayPal or they come up with a customized way of asking for a donation, such as the plug in I was talking about.Being a WordPress tool, the " Buy Me A Beer " plug in can't be used for Blogger blogs. But that's not the case anymore, because someone thought of creating a HTML code that can be used on Blogger blogs too and has the same name and features as the WordPress plug in. If you want to use this code on your blog, all you have to do is to modify some links and do some tweaks. If you want to see the code, please click here.You have to host the " beer.gif " image yourself, change the email from the HTML code, with your own PayPal email address and modify the text your visitors will see ( I mean this one: If you like this post, buy me a beer! ).If you don't have where to host your " beer.gif " image, which you can find it here, please go to PhotoBucket and sign up for a free account and upload the image there, then change the image link ( http://beer.gif ) with the link where your image is hosted. And if don't have a PayPal account, please go to PayPal.com and sign up for a free account, then go and change the email from the HTML code above, with your OWN PayPal address. If you wish, you can also modify the text that it is visible to your visitors ( If you like this post, buy me a beer! ), with your own version.When every thing is done, place the HTML code in your blog's sidebar, wherever you wish ( to the top or to the bottom ) and check to see if it is working properly. That's all you have to do to have your very own " Buy Me A Beer " donation plug in ( TAKE THAT WORDPRESS USERS ! ):) For more details on how to setup this tool, please visit Etienne Teo's blog. | | By: My PPC Advertising | | |
| | All the beer you can drink! (Or so you'd think...) | | 2007-10-22 10:21:00 | | It’s something that every blurry-eyed soak with the wherewithal to dream wishes for: the day somebody says he will pick up every bar tab that comes before him till the day he drops dead. Paying for one’s beer-guzzling habit is undoubtedly the least appealing aspect of heavy drinking (next to the dry heaves) and the wish to drink as much as possible on as little money as possible explains why when it comes to mass producing beer, there are no standards too low if a cheap price-tag can be slapped on at the end. (This fact also explains why people say they love their home-brewed beer even when they didn’t have a clue what they were doing when they made it and resent having to drink such cheap slop). Croucher Brewery Company in New Zealand recently drew international headlines and more free publicity than it could have hoped for* when it offered a “lifetime supply” of beer to the person who returned a laptop that someone had spirited off its premises (Full story here).
