Do you drink beer?

It was a sip of Guinness

Well that's your problem, right there. Guinness is not where you start out. The only men who are manly enough to enjoy Guinness from the start are from Macclesfield. True fact.

Just curious, are you guys separating "beer" from "lager"? Or is that purely a British distinction? Personally I'm a lager drinker when I'm out (tends to be wine at home) as I don't have a beard and am therefore unqualified to drink beer.

Yeah, never heard beer called anything but beer around here. I'm a lager man too, never liked Guinness are any dark beers. They're like drinking a meal, I like something light and refreshing.

I must say I'm disappointed in the programmers who said they tried beer once and never drank it again. That's like saying you kissed your grandma and didn't like it so you never kissed anyone again. I think one of the major strengths of a programmers personality is curiosity. Now I fully understand choosing not to drink as a lifestyle choice but you must remember that you are part of a proud community and damn it, programmers are not quitters !!!
