Especially this time of the year, they brew a kind of beer with up to 12% vol. (usually 5% vol.)phinds said:reminds me of the time 3 brewery reps went drinking together. The guy representing Schlitz ordered a Schlitz and the guy representing Budweiser ordered a Bud and the guy representing Heineken order a coke. Hey, said the Bud rep, how come you ordered a coke? Well, said the Heineken rep, since you guys didn't order beer I figured I wouldn't either.
I always thought that honeymoon salad was defined as "Lettuce alone without dressing".gmax137 said:My mother-in-law used to ask for honeymoon salad. When asked, she'd say, "Lettuce alone."

I didn't dare to mention it.Arjan82 said:Fun fact: In The Netherlands, where Heineken originated from, this beer is considered cheap. This is a common cartoon in The Netherlands (kinda need to censor it I think):

We had a friend who grew up in East Germany and came over after the wall came down. We offered him a beer. He was hesitant, but was willing to try a can of Coors. His comment: "A German would drink this beer".fresh_42 said:
Reminds me of what a Russian once said to me as he saw me drinking a Russian beer, which was good by the way: "Tastes good, but it takes too long."jrmichler said:We had a friend who grew up in East Germany and came over after the wall came down.

Guinness would have been a good and somehow neutral and internationally known choice.JT Smith said:I'm no fan of Bud (or Schlitz) but Heinekin? Seriously? You could reverse the brand names and the joke would still work equally as poorly.

I think Guinness is in the same category. Guinness is well made for what it is, same as Bud and Heinekin. They are all expertly made, mass produced, consistent, unexceptional, bland products of ginormous multinational corporations.fresh_42 said:Guinness would have been a good and somehow neutral and internationally known choice.

It's probably not correct, but I'll try a seagull.
I'll post the answer, but @topsquark got it correct. a "perch". It really makes for a good clean riddle, especially among people who you first meet=I find it to be a good one. :)Charles Link said:Let's try out a riddle and see if anyone solves it: "What type of fish does a bird like to sit on? "
