Did beer evolve around mankind so that we'd breed more beer and facilitate it's survival as a species?

Otherwise, it makes no sense.

So you're up at 4am, waiting for someone to post something that makes sense?

That makes no sense. Think about it...

Going by that post, I think you have had enough of it

^See above

Typical, miserable ds responses.

- Don't drink beer
- Probably don't like Christmas
- Think Christmas jumpers are 'tacky'
- Don't eat sugar
- Vegan

What's for tea? Oh, I think I'm going to have gruel. Sure, it's bland and flavourless, but it's the logical choice.

See also 'Jeremy Corbyn'.

Beer, especially weak ale (know for centuries as small beer) was drunk as the main beverage of choice because it was safer than water, especially in towns.

This thread makes perfect sense. It's actually one of the more intelligent questions, far more intelligent than most of the other crap I'm seeing in General Discussion.

There are no side effects to excessive energy drink and beer consumption, other than 'fun'.

Of course, I don't know what I was thinking.

The propaganda and hate must have got to me.

Beer is not bad. Regular, excessive consumption can be.

Do you think this po-faced approach helped pen any of Deep Purples greatest hits?

Do you think he drove that V8 sensibly?

Well this has been a very educational thread as it made me google the history of beer.
The oldest evidence of beer is from Iran in the 5th Century before christ
Egypt and ancient Mesopotamia have written evidence of beer....
5,000 years ago the brewing of european beer was dominated by women. I think there's your answer Aenima, women created it to make life better

You've ALL caught too much sensible.

This thread is about as rock n roll as a twiglet without the marmite.

Edit: Apart from you planets, that was interesting
