Handwritten notes: A beer that tastes like it was made in a sweat-shop in some third world country by the sweat of slave labour. It is a rusty, dusty, piece of yuck. It tastes wet and sour like a discount Canadian beer made from ass-ends of brewery barrels. Unique? Perhaps. Good? No. I saw this "Monde Selection" thing and I got curious. Where have I seen this before? Oh, yes, Great Western Brewery bragged about this great and prestigious honour bestowed upon them. Check out the Monde selection website. For a mere $1,100 Euros ($1,700 Canadian) you can enter your beverage, use the Monde logo, and get awarded some pointless distinction to fool half-drunk idiots into thinking your product is good. And, with that, I announce the new "BARD QUALITY EXCELLENCE AWARD". For only $1,500 (Cheaper than Monde), I will test your product and give it the recognition it deserves. You will be permitted to use a logo of my left hand giving thumbs up. If your product meets with my high quality standards review (i.e. if your cheque clears), you will receive a very nice honour, a medal made of chocolate, a fruit basket, and my thanks.
