Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 20, 2013
Transcript:
Goat: You know, Rat, this "Beerland" is filled with nothing but bizarre rides and inappropriate attractions. What if someone wanted to bring their entire family here? Rat: We do have a swimming pool. Goat: Oh, good. Rat: Filled with beer you can drink. Goat: That can't be to code. Man: Yo... which end's the light beer? Rat: Hey, Pal. Swim trunks required.

After the first 20 minutes drinking in the pool, you don’t notice that the beer is flat and chlorinated.

With a name like “Beerland”, why would you take you kids in the first place? That’s like going to an “adult” shop and being mad about them selling porn!!!

The most appropriately named beer is Iron City. Tastes like rust.

As they said on Monty Python, American beer is like making love in a conoe, --ing close to water.

Furthermore, out of 95 categories being judged, 68 gold medals were given to American brewries while only 7 were given to German brewries (all 7 of those were European /German style) and just so you know American cities took 7 golds in the German style also.

As Terry Pratchett might have said “That beer must be pure after being filtered through so many kidneys.”

I thought “inappropriate attractions” meant like a man having the hots for a goat. Hope THAT’s not going on in the park, too!
