What wine should you drink while listening to Wagner? What cocktail should you drink standing in front of a Magritte painting? What coffee should you put in your thermos when going out birdwatching? What breakfast cereal goes best with the New York Times? What kind of incense should you burn doing Tibetan Buddhist meditation? What kind of hat should you wear when walking to the hardware store?
Liebfraumilch. That is not a cocktail. Jacu Bird coffee. MO-DO's. For fuck's sake anything but Nag Champa. A mortarboard.
Any other questions?

I think Graham Joyce is slightly over romanticizing Derby as some sort of Noir hell hole.

Can someone explain to me why Jonathan Franzen initially pairs The Corrections with Budweiser and seems really pleased with Budweiser and even films a commercial for Budweiser but then has a crazy temper tantrum and retracts his choice and disavows Budweiser and writes 18,000 words for Harper's on the reasons for his disavowal of Budweiser and then retires to his loft to start a second career writing essays about how hard it is to be Jonathan Franzen?

For Zheutlin’s Around the World on Two Wheels: Annie Londonderry's Extraordinary Ride, the author suggested a brand I like a lot: "Fat Tire Amber Ale, a Belgian-style beer with picture of a retro bike on the label.
Oh yes.

Go find a bench in an English park. Look at what cans are beneath it. That will give you a measure of the best cost/alcohol option.

From the standard of comments on here sometimes, I think we should be looking into what people were drinking when they're writing to MetaFilter.
Anyway, stav really needs to see this.
If he didn't write it in the first place, that is.

Arrogant Bastard Ale seems like the obvious answer. Thanks for the post carsonb.
