Zombie waiters at the Four-Beer Bar!

karaoke-2-180.jpgI’m a little hazy on what is going on. These are waiters in training, but what’s the deal? The only thing you’re allowed to order at this new karaoke bar is four beers?

“Hey, Biff! I’m alone tonight, but I guess I’ll need four brewskies, anyway!”

“I’m the designated driver. Can’t you sneak me a Perrier? I know rules is rules, but…”

“Yo, Tony! Just bring me whatever you recommend! That would be four beers, huh?”

“Are you insane? I’ve just heard 56 guys do bad karaoke renditions of “Country Roads!” I’m gonna need something a whole lot stronger than this!”

Waiter, bring me a slideshow!

Guys: four lite beers equals one real one.

Ah, the first batch of beer since my return is fermenting away nicely in the next room. I can hardly wait for the bottling and aging.

They must be good. Every one of them is up to foursies. Where do they keep the little red ball?
