Transcript:
Goat: I can't believe you've build an entire amusement park dedicated to beer. You know, kids come to these parks. What here could possibly appeal to them? Rat: Sleeping Drunk Guy's Castle? Goat: Wonderful. Rat: Shhhhh... He gets violent when you wake him.

A little sip of beer given by a parent with care won’t harm the kids; in fact, it will do them some good, both short- and long-term, as they will grow up with a proper attitude towards and respect for beer, one of mankind’s earliest and greatest food-inventions. In many areas of Europe, a glass of beer (or wine) typically accompanies a meal.So, let’s all go to Rat’s Beer Land!

If you ever read the logs from the Pilgrim ship Mayflower, you will find that they stopped in Plymouth, MA because they ran out of beer and needed to make more. How beer changed history.

A beer amusement park is neither new nor particularly unusual. What do you think “Busch Gardens” was started for?!

Like (Anheiser) Busch Gardens? Williamsburg, VA used to have tours of the brewery and free samples, now you have to register for the brewmaster class to get the free samples.

bbadenov – when we went to Plymouth, decades ago, and they had just started doing first person interpretation (the person you are speaking with is the “person” from the period with no knowledge of “the future” I wondered if drinking of alcohol was allowed. Trying to put it in his terms (and not being one who drinks alcohol) I asked if he drank mead. He made a face and said that mead was terrible and no longer commonly drunk. Beer and near beer were the common drinks, but here in the colony the water was drinkable.
