There is a slight truth to the story, back in the old days they would put a bottle of warm stout down the throat of a horse is it was feeling a bit colicky,
but to say it cured the horse after 23 hrs of being down is Bullsh**.

Maybe it was just an alco-colic and just needed a fix.
I guess the mane thing here is the horse is in a stable condition now.

I toured the XXXX factory a few weeks ago and it was mighty impressive
what i couldn't understand is why with a technologically advanced, multi-million dollar setup they can't even make the beer taste good?

At least Qlders know how many letters there are. Fact: It originated in Castlemaine, Victoria. And I note youre from NSW, but I wont bother with that states beer being named after the sound a drinker makes when they spit it out. |

It was called XXXX because all the good 4 letter words were taken.
