wiegie Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 (edited) So, tonight my wife and I had our pastor and his wife over for dinner. The pastor is of German descent and he has mentioned several times in his sermons that he likes his beer. So I buy some Beck's for the evening and when they get here I offer them some. They accept and all goes well. We talk about beer for a few minutes and then I mention that I had some other unique beer in the fridge that I bought a few weeks ago. I mentioned it specifically because I had bought the beer in a case and hadn't seen what the bottles looked like until I got home and opened them. The name of the beer was "Infidel Imperial Pale Ale", but when I bought them I only read Imperial Pale Ale. As it turned out, the bottles had a picture of what looked like the devil on them which led my wife to remark "That is not a very good beer to drink for Easter" (which is about when I had bought the beer). That comment from my wife had made me laugh and I was relating this story to the pastor as I brought out one of these beers for the pastor to look at (and possibly drink). The pastor looked at the bottle and started reading the label and then pointed out the beer proudly proclaimed itself as "the anti-Christ of beers". Sort of an awkward way to start the evening. (Later on, though, he did (sort of) make a joke about it and the overall evening went pretty well, but I still wish I had not brought out the beer to begin with.)

irish Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Nicely done presenting the pastor with Anti Christ beer. Well at least all turned out well as it seems the pastor had a good sense of humor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geeteebee Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 My pastor plays in our weekly poker game. I get salvation and part of my tithing back to boot. So I've got that going for me. Which is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're big into that? Do you give the proper amount or are you shorting the Big Man above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think any person with the slightest sense of humor would be amused by a typical "wiegie inserts foot into mouth" moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czarina Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Bill Gates makes a beer? I need to see that. You probably have to search the internet for instructions on how to open it and the bottles mysteriously crash to the floor for no apparent reason.

SayItAintSoJoe Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Does it come in 666 packs? Excellent! I was thinking of something along the lines of “the beer with the supernatural taste” or “serve it at your next party and you’ll be sure to turn heads”, but the 666 reference is hard to top.

wiegie Posted May 19, 2007 Author Share Posted May 19, 2007 We went to church tonight and just before it began I ran into the pastor. I apologized to him about the beer and said I was embarrassed about it. He just laughed and said, "I'm sure it has a hell of a taste." :chuckle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikesVikes Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) One of my best friends was the pastor of our church. He was crazy. We'd go to Valley Fair and go on all the rides. One time we were on a ride I think it's called the Thunder Canyon. Where there's like six seats and you travel around in rough water and under water falls and you get soaked. Me and the pastor were riding along with some other guy and everytime we got wet the other guy would swear up and down about getting wet. Me and Joe were laughing are arses off.
