Drinkability

| No Comments

The family ventured downtown the other day to check out the Umi Sake House (happy hour every day!). I spotted a billboard for something like Bud Light, which proclaimed the beer's "drinkability."

Me: What does it mean for a beer to be "drinkable"? Does that mean it's close to being water?

Amy: Yeah. It means all that pesky "flavor" doesn't get in the way.

Seriously, this is considered a good thing? I just don't get people.

Today I read that as part of general worldwide food shortages (thanks, ethanol!), hops are in short supply thus threatening to turn all beer into "more drinkable" liquids. Now, I loves me some hoppy brew, so this is bad news.
