piss beer

In the seventies brewers made beer that was 3.2% in alcohol content, to sell in States that allowed anyone over 18 years old to buy it. Real beer, sold only to 21+, has double or even triple that amount of alcohol, like for the stouts. So teens would need twice as much to get drunk, and then spend lots of trips to piss it out: Hence, "piss beer" was born!

We were still too young to buy stout beer and so we settled for piss beer.

Furlough Beer

Beer that is consumed by students of the California State University system when their class(es) have been subjected to mandatory furloughs.

Furlough Beer often leads to more drinking of beer that is technically Non-Furlough. However, a strong argument can be made that any and all beer consumed from the start time of the first furloughed class to the start time of the next non-furloughed class is still technically Furlough Beer.

"I didn't know today was a furlough day! Let's go to (insert campus bar) for some Furlough Beer!"

Pace Beer

The beer one drinks between beers to maintain a healthy pace. By allowing the time it takes to drink a beer (and doing so with a pace beer) between drinking actual beers, one can ensure that he/she is not drinking actual beers too quickly.

"Hey Mesh, you need another beer?" "Not yet, I'm on my pace 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.
