Hello fellow beer lovers, my vacation is unfortunately over. Today I'm returning home. I had planned to write a different post about beer, but after a conversation with some "crazy people" I met at a Chinese restaurant in a shopping mall in João Pessoa, I decided to share a bit of the conversation I had with them. I believe it's the craziest thing I've ever heard about beer in my life.
I was eating Japanese food with my wife and son. At the time, I took the opportunity to enjoy a STELLA ARTOIS beer. Some people asked to sit at the same table as us. The restaurant was packed and we were only taking up 3 of the 8 seats at the table. I accepted without any problem.
One thing I found strange was that they served the beer in a plastic cup and with ice cubes inside, beer was made for glass cups. Anyway, apart from that detail, I discovered that the people who sat at the table drank beer before they were old enough to do so. It's not a good thing, but they did something surprising because they didn't have money to buy beer.
Before going to a party, they filled beer bottles with FRESH juice. Since they didn't have money to buy beer, they did this to look cool and get people's attention. Although it's a crazy idea, it's a portrait of their past. The financial difficulties were evident. Today, they drink and treat these moments as if they were in the distant past, overcoming them with the passing of time.
I was very curious to ask questions about the past, but I ended up avoiding asking too questions. People's journeys through beer tell incredible stories.
This is #BeerSaturday week and I would like to invite @lobaobh to write a post in any language about beer with at least 3 pictures.

Olá amigos amantes de cerveja, infelizmente minhas férias acabaram. Hoje estou voltando para casa. Eu tinha planejado escrever um post diferente sobre cerveja, mas depois de uma conversa com alguns "loucos" que conheci em um restaurante chinês em um shopping em João Pessoa, decidi compartilhar um pouco da conversa que tive com eles. Acredito que seja a coisa mais louca que já ouvi sobre cerveja na minha vida.
Eu estava comendo comida japonesa com minha esposa e meu filho. Na ocasião, aproveitei para saborear uma cerveja STELLA ARTOIS. Algumas pessoas pediram para sentar na mesma mesa que nós. O restaurante estava lotado e estávamos ocupando apenas 3 dos 8 lugares da mesa. Aceitei sem problemas.
Uma coisa que estranhei foi que eles serviram a cerveja em um copo de plástico e com pedras de gelo dentro, cerveja é feita para copos de vidro. De qualquer forma, tirando esse detalhe, descobri que as pessoas que estavam sentadas à mesa bebiam cerveja antes de terem idade suficiente para isso. Não é algo bom, mas elas fizeram algo surpreendente porque não tinham dinheiro para comprar cerveja.
Antes de irem a uma festa, elas enchiam garrafas de cerveja com suco FRESCO. Como não tinham dinheiro para comprar cerveja, faziam isso para parecerem descoladas e chamar a atenção das pessoas. Apesar de ser uma ideia maluca, é um retrato do passado delas. As dificuldades financeiras eram evidentes. Hoje, elas bebem e tratam esses momentos como se fossem de um passado distante, superando-os com o passar do tempo.
Eu tinha muita curiosidade em fazer perguntas sobre o passado, mas acabei evitando fazer perguntas demais. As jornadas das pessoas pela cerveja contam histórias incríveis.
Esta é a semana do #BeerSaturday e eu gostaria de convidar @lobaobh para escrever um post em qualquer idioma sobre cerveja com pelo menos 3 fotos.
Todo o conteúdo, fotos e edições são de minha autoria.
Oh, come on! There are many great local beers in Brazil, no need to torture yourself with imported industrial brews!
Like Colorado, I saw it in most supermarkets: https://www.cervejariacolorado.com.br/
Btw have you been tackled by HW, or why did you reject payout?
My friend, I live in an area of Brazil where I have access to few national beers. I have never tried this Colorado beer, not is sold in the region where I live. When I find a beer that is different from the traditional ones, it is a great joy.
During my 30 days of vacation, I managed to try 2 Brazilian craft beers that are different from the ones I have already tried, but I am saving the photos for a future post when I finish the punishment stipulated by HW.
I was punished by HW, I was reported by 3 different people for posting 3 photos that were not mine and not identifying the reference. It was my carelessness, unfortunately I am paying for this mistake by rejecting the payment on 30 posts. I was on vacation, I spent the whole month traveling, I could barely post, I will try to finish this month and get back to normal.
I Be more careful when posting, the rush ends up clouding our judgment. I will own up to my mistake and be more careful in the future.
Wow, 30 posts is quite harsh.
