Ah, semantics. Linguistics. Language. Words. Without them we wouldn’t have things like a mouthy Vice President, a vapid teenage pageant contestant, or Chinese restaurants that make us giggle.
Soon, though, you may be able to do the greatest thing a human can do: wear a “Fucking Hell” t-shirt while downing a Fucking Hell.
As some of you may or may not know, the word “Hell” isn’t just the supposed place where Satan plays Bingo with serial killers, rapists, and defense lawyers. It’s also the German word for light or light ale (hence this beer by Surly Brewing Co. – scroll down). But if a brewery in Minnesota is calling a beer “Hell,” then this post wouldn’t be necessary.
The fact that it could possibly be brewed in or near the small Austrian town of Fucking, however, means that soon you could be drinking a Fucking Hell.
There are plenty of clever, punny, or just plain bad-ass beer names out there. And while we’re a long way from knowing what the quality of this beer will be, one thing is certain: there’s no way it will be better than shouting “Fucking Hell” at your bartender and not getting a dirty look in return.
