It was a joke, for pete's sake, a joke!

Sometimes I think my sense of humour is a little too dry.

Oh yes, I'm with you there. Fantastic brewery tour at Pilsner Urquell. They actually brew beer regularly in oak barrels the old-fashioned way in the rock tunnels under the brewery to taste compare with the batches being made in the modern brewery above. Each production batch is tested like that to ensure that the beer hasn't changed with the new methods.
