MTB'n & Beer Is it in our genes?

[mazda-monkey]

I love to ride and love a good beer.
Seems like most on this site like really good beer - Guiness, brew pub style, local hand crafted etc.. some even brew their own as I once did.
Are we genetically pre-disposed to like both?

Does anyone here not like beer?

I sometimes ride with someone that loves the taste of beer but is actually alergic, and can't have more than a sip without his throat swelling up.

Definitely in my genes.

Please don't use that kind of language around me. Thanks.

That would be my GF. She hates beer but can drink a number of hard liquors like a fish.

So, so, very sad....

Remember that Howard Jones song from the 80's called "No one is to blame"?

It's a family tradition with me.

I'm sure I could get under 200 lbs. if I stop drinking beer, but why? I feel good and I ride good.

I love the taste of beer. My new fav is Sam Adam's Black Lager.

genes.....dad's side is Irish (stout), mom's German (lager, pilsner, bock, hefe..) and a wee bit Scottish (a real McCoy)...so I'd say that i'd rather give fresh hops than roses to my wife....but she still wants the roses (and deserves it for putting up with me)
