American Beer Month

To help commemorate July being American Beer Month - here are some more quotes from great everyday Americans (from Modern Drunkard Magazine):
“Sure! What’s in it?” Troy B.’s rather optimistic response to a bartender’s request of, “You wanna get the hell out of here?” at Club 404.

“Never throw out a man deep in his cups, cuz he might drown. Socrates said that. Just before the bastards drowned him.” Unidentified patron playing fast and loose with history at Bushwackers Tavern.

“I’m not drunk. I have the flu. All this drinking lowered my germ immunity” Adam M, 32, putting a medical spin on why he fell out of his chair at the High Street Speakeasy.

“Will Kidnap Your Mother-in-Law For Beer Money.” Sign held by unnamed wino at the corner of Colfax and Grant.

“Will Drink For Food.” Sign held by a wino who wants it all, with minimum effort, at Speer and 8th.

“Pour me a Guinness, and I’ll have a PBR while it’s settling.” Troy B., 40, multitasking his pints at Nallen’s Pub.

“When the fuck did all the bartenders trade in their skills for tits? Did I miss a meeting?” Jay R., 32, brooding over the plum brandy that found its way into his Manhattan at the Carousel Club.

“Depression is just anger without enthusiasm. It’s an empty beer bottle with no one worth throwing it at.” Norma M., her seething rage barely contained by apathy at the Cricket on the Hill.

“Drinking when we’re not thirsty is one of the few things that separates us from the beasts.” Beau T. at Swanky’s, getting more civilized by the minute
