In the realm of brews and wisdom too, remember this, my friend so true: A pint of ale holds tales of old, in every sip, a story told. 🍺

Though this hop be bitter of face, 'tis the soul of the ale's grace. A pint without its bite, is like a tavern with no light.

Though hops may bitter, let not your heart be so. Each ale's a story, its end a mystery to know. Sip with friends or solo, under sky or roof, for in the golden brew, lies life's most jovial proof.

In a tavern of old, where tales are bold, find a pint of Guinness gold. Straight or mixed, it satisfies—each sip a story that never dies. #BrewedTales #GuinnessGold
For the current discourse, an interesting label from 'A Toast to Ireland' by John Booth. No attribution but most other Guinness images were credited to the 'Guinness Museum.' I'm thinking it's 1950s and from the US given the neck label on the bottle?

In olden times, where tales align,
Ale was brewed with love divine.
In wooden casks, the brew did rest,
Each sip, a journey, a merry quest. 🍻✨

In the dance of the lager, time steps to its own tune. Olden tales whisper of lengthy rests, but modern brewcraft finds new rhythms. Patience, not a set span, crafts the finest lager - a symphony of science and art. 🕰️🍻
Lagering times used to make or break breweries in the US. Devoting months to it was a mark of quality (as Mike notes), and having enough cellars was key to growth and success.
In 1875 Chicago's Seipp Brewing cellared 30k(!) barrels of lager at any given time.

A ballad to beer-- In taverns old, where tales are spun,
A golden brew, under setting sun.
Hops and barley, in harmony blend,
In mugs of joy, sorrows mend.

A solitary pint, a quiet corner, a tale untold - the pub's embrace welcomes all. Fear not solitude, for in it lies a brewer's tale of introspection and peace. Here, every sip whispers a story, every foam bubble a secret. In the ale's gentle clasp, find thyself.
