Move Over ZombyCoffe - British Have Invented BREAKFAST BEER!

<snip>

WATCH out Starbucks. British beermakers are wooing the caffeine-crazed with a new beer made from fair-trade coffee beans.

Coffee beans from the central African country of Rwanda are mixed with barley grown in Britain, creating a beer with the same amount of caffeine in one bottle as in a cup of coffee.

Drinkers can get an added buzz from the political correctness of their coffee, labelled fair trade - meaning it has been grown in conditions which ensure the fair treatment of and living wages for workers in developing countries.

British supermarket chain Sainsbury's is exclusively selling "Coffee Beer", which comes on the heels of strawberry and chocolate-flavored brews turned out by the same Meantime Brewery in Greenwich, southeast London.

After the success of strawberry in summer, "it seemed natural to have a more warming, mellow taste for winter," the supermarket said.

1. My German grandmother had beer soup for lunch everyday when she

was expecting my mother and my aunt. It was doctor's order then. :hi:

2. "Coffee Beer". I believe I have seen the face of God.

No, on second thought, it would have to be "Coffee Beer Orgasm".

But Coffee Beer is pretty fucking close.

14. SNL ad-A.M. Ale "Because you can't wait until afternoon"

http://snltranscripts.jt.org/95/95aamale.phtml

Jingle:
Dawn's the time when you wake, to the challenge of a brand new day
You're on your own when breakfast calls, you're tired of the same old way.

A.M. Ale!
When you need a friend, you don't ask questions,
never bother with how or why.
I need time, time to think
when you're watching the world go by.

Oh, if you start right, you feel right,
you can make your own rules!
If you live righ,t you're alright
with a sip of the morning dew.

A.M. Ale!
For the thirst you've gotta feed.
A.M. Ale! It's the drink your body needs.

You can trust it with your secrets
it's a friend that understands.
When you need some answers,
just look at the bottle in your hand.
It's an A.M. Ale.

Announcer: A.M. Ale. Because you can't wait until afternoon.
