Cows crash beer pong game in Boxford, Massachusetts. True story. A girl and some friends were playing beer pong in their backyard, when 6 cows crashed the shin dig. They went after the beer, even the empties looking for more beer. Best part of the video – when they say the party goers were “scared off” by the cows. Man, Chic-Fil-A marketing team never sleeps.
It’s Friday. It’s a long weekend. Plus, the ever epic Star Wars debuted 35 years ago today – May 25, 1977. The sci-fi opera has grossed over $4.5 billion to date, and is one of the most widely watched movies on planet earth. Grab a copy of the movie and drink a beer(s). Now for a little epic beer nerd breakdown. Nerd. For. Life.
The most epic Star Wars themed beer out there. This is the old label, before Lucas sued over the image.
Just an epic name. The force is strong with Sierra Nevada.
Terrapin Beer Co’s Dark Side. Imperial indeed.
Actually a real beer. Brew Kettle is in Ohio. Ok, that’s more like Spaceballs.
Not Real. Just Funny. “It’s a Trappist!”
Hans Solo. I knew that scoundrel was German.
Beer for the Light Side?
Of course it would come in a can.
Very much real. I’ve seen it.
I thought she only had twins?
Close enough.
Oskar Blues loves them some Star Wars.
Makes perfect sense.
Brewdog takes care of some insolence.
Epic. And real.
Sorry Garfunkel. We don’t hock Trek here.
Probably the most epic pic ever taken in the Brick Store Pub cellar. The Oompa Loopas are the Watts family from Terrapin Beer, Augustus Gloop is Kevin from Heavy Seas, tall guy is Lee from Brick Store, and guess who yours truly is…
And a really big infographic.
Further proof that beer can do anything. Gundersen Lutheran Hosptial in La Crosse, Wisconsin is taking aim at being completely energy independent. That’s not the story. It’s more like – how are they going to do it? Beer & cheese gas. If you’re anything like me, the first thing I think of is beer farts. High five for that. The hospital is actually looking at harnessing the energy potential of a biproduct of their production – biogas.
Biogas is produced by the anaerobic (no oxygen) breakdown of biodegradable materials (manure, sewage, plants, etc). It’s mostly methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). These gases can be combusted (like a car engine does) to create an energy release, and used as fuel. There are a few breweries already doing this to reheat their boilers, including Spoetzel (Shiner) Anheuser-Busch, and MillerCoors.
Gundersen Lutheran is sourcing biogas from local breweries and cheese makers, along with a local landfill in order to power the hospital. They aim to be completely energy independent by 2014. [Grist]
Side note: contrary to popular belief, the “fart” is comprised more of nitrogen and CO2 than methane. Now you know.
