Funny Beer Trivia

• In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts. So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them to:
  Mind their own pints and quarts and settle down.  This is where we get the phrase: 'mind your P's and Q's'.
• The three most common pub names are in the UK are: The Red Lion; The Crown; The Royal Oak. It is a sad fact, say Will and Guy, that as pubs are taken over more and more by the conglomerates that pub signs are diminishing and pubs are getting generic names like 'The Slug and Lettuce' which is a large chain.
• In 1740 Admiral Vernon of the British fleet decided to water down the navy's rum. Needless to say, the sailors weren't too pleased and called Admiral Vernon, Old Grog, after the stiff wool *grogram coats he wore. The term 'grog' soon began to mean the watered down drink itself. When you were drunk on this grog, you were 'groggy', a word still in use today.
  
  * Grogram: A coarse, often stiffened fabric made of silk, mohair, wool, or a blend of them.
• A beer lover or enthusiast is called a cerevisaphile.
• Collect beer mats is called tegestology.
• The oldest brewery in the United States is supposedly Yuengling in Pottsville, Pennsylvania – founded in 1829.
• Beer Ads on television started in the 1940s.  One of the first cheeky / funny beer ads was Carling's: 'Hey Mabel--Black Label'.  The ad ran for 20 years from 1951 at the end of the advert the barmaid winked at the audience as she responded to: 'Hey Mabel--Black Label'.
• The smallest pub in Britain is claimed by three pubs: The Nutshell, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk; The Lakeside Inn, Southport, Merseyside; The Smiths Arms, Godmanstone, Dorset.
• In the Czech Republic, beer is cheaper than Coca Cola, so we are led to believe.
• In Norse mythology, a warrior who died in battle would go to Valhalla and be entitled to drink as much beer as he desired.
• The longest pub name in the UK is 'The Old Thirteenth Cheshire Astley Volunteer Rifleman Corps Inn', Stalybridge, Manchester.
• The highest pub in Britain is Tan Hill Inn, North Yorkshire at 1,732 feet above sea level.
• There is a disagreement as to which is the oldest pub in Britain. It is between these 3:
  1) Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, Nottingham 1189
  2) The Old Ferry Boat , St Ives, Cambridgeshire possibly 10th century
  3) Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, St Albans possibly 11th century.
• Here is the pub sign to the Barrel O'Beer pub which can be found in the town of Beer in Devon, England. Cheers!
• Before the invention of thermometers, the brewer tested the *wort by placing his thumb in it. When he could reliably place his thumb in the wort without having to remove it because of the heat, the wort was cool enough to pitch the yeast. Hence tone reason for the expression 'rule of thumb'.
  
  *Wort is the liquid extracted from the mashing process during the brewing of beer or whisky. Wort contains the sugars that will be fermented by the brewing yeast to produce alcohol.
