Beer Beard

The required unkept facial hair required for guys to have in order to work in a brewery, micro brewery, or to be a beer "aficionado". Can easily be confused with hipsters or some unemployed slob. Although, one comes to find out that some of them are actually hipsters.

I was rejected entrance into the local micro brewery because I was clean shaven. More importantly, I didn't have the mandatory beer beard. You can't try to do something crazy like being and making choices yourself these days.

Non-beer

A calm mixed drink or short drink consumed casually once too many beers have been had.

'Another drink lads?' 'Hmm, perhaps a cheeky non-beer'

driving beer

A term Canadians use to refer to light beer, as their standard beers are 5% alc/vol

Guy 1: "Are you ok to drive home?"
Canadian 1: " Yeah don't worry I've only been drinking driving beer"

Table Beers

Abandoned or unattended moderately consumed beers sitting on a table in a pub that one consumes to makes for a cheap night out, though usually results in herpies or the odd roofie. There is a fabled fraternity that lives by this...

One could even gather a few table beers and pour into one glass for a more rich and full filling taste..
Goes very well with the shoey.

“Hey cunt your shout!”
“I’m broke...table beers?”
“Fuck oath! “

banter and beer

The saying when you and the lads are having a quiet bevy and laughing at random shit cause it's fun.

Vin: Fancy a chippy tea?
Ash: na, meeting the lads for a banter and beer

flagship beer

This is the beer that is most identified with any particular micro, craft or regional brewer. Usually it is the first beer, or one of the first beers the brewery made when they began their business. Although a flagship beer can be any style of beer, it is often one popular with a majority of beer drinkers. Occasionally, a brewery will have more than one flagship beer. Deschutes Brewery in Bend, Oregon, has two: Mirror Pond Pale Ale and Black Butte Porter. Other examples of a flagship beer include Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale, New Belgium's Fat Tire Amber Ale and Dogfish Head's 60 Minute IPA. According to the Brewers Association any flagship beer must be an all malt beer.

When we visited Sierra Nevada's brewpub in Chico, California, the first beer we ordered was their flagship Pale Ale.

One of my favorite beers is Anchor Steam Beer, the flagship beer of Anchor Brewery.
