How Beer Has Bridged the Gap

Beer is the most ordinarily enjoyed beverage. You can argue that water is, but who legitimately enjoys water? And isn't water in everything? So, it has an unfair advantage to be honest.

The most ordinarily enjoyed beverage is beer and I'm sticking by that answer. You can look it up on the quest engines all you want. You might find that the most ordinarily enjoyed drink is tea, coffee or soda. But, I'm not trying to hear that!

Coffee Tea

Being that my fact is beer is the most ordinarily enjoyed beverage, I have great reserve for why I think that and you'll soon learn that I am right. Beer bridges gaps between people. There are quite a few instances in which beer was used to bring population together, make things happen and convert the world.

Obama

President Obama used beer to bring a racial incident to a halt. In 2009, when Sgt. Crowley arrested the Harvard Professor Henry Gates Jr. At his home, it hit the news as racial profiling. Well, President Obama went into performance and invited them both to sit down with him and Vice President Biden for a beer.

Did the beer solve the problem? I would say the talks solved the problem. But, beer has the strange way of opening the avenues for discussion. Two guys sitting over from each other with nothing to say can soon become best friends in only a few beers. By the end of the night, they will be singing songs with each other while clanging the mugs of beer together in sheer bliss.

Prohibition

I don't know whose idea it was to start Prohibition. But, it was Fdr who ended it as it was understood at the time. With the signing of the Cullen-Harrison Act which amended the Volstead Act, Fdr say, "I think this would be a good time for a beer." With that declaration, Budweiser's infamous Clydesdales made the march down Pennsylvania Avenue and delivered him some.

Do I think ending the Prohibition had whatever to do with beer? This one legitimately did. Even the president wanted a beer! If I had been president, that would have been the first act on my agenda.

Cavemen

This fact goes back beyond recorded history. But, I recently had the opening to interview a few cavemen from those days. Their speech is generally in grunts so they are hard to understand. For instance, we still don't know how exactly the first protocol of beer was invented. All I can get from the cavemen is that it was an accident while development the primary form of what we call bread.

However, I was able to get that the first Beer Summit was legitimately held in a field between two warring tribes. It wasn't long after the first beer was tasted and it became the beloved beverage of the tribe that one caveman wandered over into the other tribe's camp. A beautiful cavewoman saw him and immediately the two fell in love.

This caused some strife between the two warring tribes, who presented themselves in the field for battle. The caveman decided to share some of his beer with the cavewoman and they stumbled onto the field of battle between the two warring tribes. The cavewoman's father reprimanded her, but she offered him some beer so that he could see what had started this relationship in the first place. Before long, both tribes were drinking beer and enjoying a good time on the field of battle. It became known as, "Uhh ooh ooh ah ooh Uh." Translated into English, that means, "Field of That Stuff You Have."

Now, I was able to get all that data from them but I couldn't understand what they were saying when they were telling me how beer was invented. Go figure! Anyway, beer was the end of the first war ever. That's a exiguous known story.

Beer has been our friend since it was first introduced to our lips. It remains the go to when we have deep problems to solve. It was there when we Marines were hatched. It was there when Football charge was ended. And it's been to space! So, have a beer. There is no other beverage like it in the world!
