Time for some more beer talk around the beer cooler. Beer is a wonderful drink. It eases pain when you are sore. It makes you smile and it makes you laugh with your friends. Beer has been around for a very long time. Many great people drank beer, including our Founding Fathers and Presidents. I think we were put on this earth to enjoy life and be happy. Beer is something to be happy about and it makes you even more happy. Read on for some good beer talk around the cooler.
I love beer. When did you first start liking beer? It actually took me a long time to like the taste of beer though. I started off drinking all those girly drinks or shots in college. Then I started drinking beer, but really only because that was all the party had in their beer coolers. I remember it all started with the all American classic, Budweiser. Budweiser really is a great beer, it is American, and I love America and all of our freedoms. Especially the freedom to drink beer. I hope that freedom nor any of our freedoms ever get taken away from us. I think the prohibition was unbelievable and would dread the day, if it were to ever return. A Budweiser lager is just so smooth too, it goes down so nice an easy, which makes it a great beer for beginners to learn to love beer.
Here are some great beer quotes that I love:
“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”
-Benjamin Franklin
This is my favorite beer quote. I even have a beer T-shirt with this quote on it that I got on vacation in Boston. Our Founding Fathers were so very wise. Have you read any of their other quotes? If you haven’t you should definitely take a look at them. As they say, if we don’t know our history we our sure to repeat it. All of their warnings are very valid today! I think Benjamin Franklin and a couple other Founding Fathers actually brewed beer as well. They really knew how to live life I would say. And Benjamin Franklin knew a lot about God and the fact that He wants us to be happy!
“Everybody has to believe in something…..I believe I’ll have another drink.”
-W.C. Fields
Now, I like this one because it is funny. And we should all strive to achieve our dreams!
“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.”
-Abraham Lincoln
Now some people say this quote with and without the beer added to the end of it, but I believe he did indeed say beer. I think he was trying to liven up the situation. And I believe that many of our Founding Fathers and Presidents did drink beer in moderation.
“No soldier can fight unless he is properly fed on beef and beer.”
-John Churchill, First Duke of Marlborough
This is just another great quote. May God bless our soldiers who fight and give their lives for this country and its’ freedoms! I am a fan of lowering the drinking age to 18 as well. I don’t think you should be able to die for your country, but not be allowed to have a glass of beer!
“Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do.”
-Ecclesiastes 9:7 (NIT)
Okay, I had to throw this one in to the beer cooler talk too. Now I know this quote is not about beer, but I believe God wants us to enjoy beer as well. He wants us to enjoy it in moderation of course though. He warned about getting drunk over and over again. He is gave a Spirit of self-control and it is our choice to use it or not. There are many quotes about strong drinks and wine in the Bible. He wants us to be full of joy! After all, Jesus did turn water into wine, which was his first miracle too!
I can certainly understand if people do not drink beer, because of religious reasons. That is their choice and they should stick to it, if that is their desire. However, I believe my God made beer to make man’s hearts merry. Okay, I know we are not suppose to talk about politics or religion, ever, which I definitely do not agree with. I think it is extremely important to talk about such things, how else do you learn? However, I am not going to talk any further about religion because this is the Heers Beer Cooler blog, not a religious blog. So it is time to get back to the beer talk.
I find it hard to understand how some people just do not like the taste of beer. It just taste so good. Although, I do understand it takes a long time to get to the point of liking it, as I mentioned it did for me. How can you not love reaching for a cold one out of your beer beverage cooler? Popping the lid and taking that first sip on a hot summer day is just pure heavenly. After a long hard day at work, a beer is needed to take the edge off and make your muscles feel better. Beer was used in the old days for aches and pains too. It was used as a medicine to help people through their pain. Beer is also high in antioxidants and good for you health. The antioxidants may not be as high as red wine, but it is still good for you. Doctors have said that one alcoholic drink a day, any alcohol, is good for your heart. But you have to drink in moderation! One drink a day for women and two drinks a day for men is the doctor’s orders.
Enjoying a glass of beer with your dinner is just appropriate, especially when you are eating a nice steak or hamburger. Beer is great cooked in food and it is great drinking with your food. So if you are not for beer then have another taste. There are so many beers on the market that there is sure to be one that you will love. If you are just against beer, than we will have to agree to disagree. Beer has been in mankind’s hands for a long time throughout history. Our Founding Fathers loved beer and I believe that it was put here by God for us to enjoy. We should enjoy our lives, and enjoying a beer makes life even more enjoyable. May our freedom to drink beer live on forever! Now go and grab a beer out of your beer cooler!
