Suddenly, then it hit me,
A huge brainwave I could tell,
Gotta’ get a job in a brewery,
And taste success as well.
My first week was a ripper,
Job training every day,
Tasting all the different beers,
This is heaven I would say.
With my training lessons over,
I reckon now I’m made,
Free beer for everyday I work,
And I’m even gettin’ paid.
Now you’d never guess whats happened,
They’ve given me the flick,
Said, since I started workin there,
Their profits have been sick.
Unfair dismissal, I claimed by law,
And the judge said that was true,
He made them pay me a million,
Now I own a brewery too.

thats brilliant!!
i can remember back when i was a teenager, at one those weekend backyard parties you have during highschool thinking
damn this beer tastes bad.
looking back now, i can attribute three reasons for that thought.
1. i was drinking to get drunk. there was no appreciation of the actual taste. it was about the quantity, not quality.
2. the beer was cheap and nasty. being underage, and poor, the beer that was usually served at these parties was nasty.
3. my tastebuds were immature. at the time i also disliked wine, whiskey and champers (all of which i thoroughly enjoy these days). your palette matures over time (well, mine has).
Q - would i enjoy beer if it didn't make you drunk (or give a buzz or whatever)??
A - you bet. for me, beer is a very refreshing drink. i love the taste. after a hot day, or a hard day at work, there is nothing better than a cold beer.
