Shoeless Trivia: Beer

I spent most of the afternoon at a bottle share, which seems like as good a reason as any to do beer trivia.

  1. Name any one of the characters from The Simpsons pictured below.simpsons1
  2. What surname is shared by Stone Brewing’s Greg and the Boston Beer Company’s Jim?
  3. Hamlet was the unlikely inspirations for what 1983 film comedy starring Rick Moranis and Max von Sydow?
  4. A beer’s IBU rating is meant to quantify one aspect of its flavor profile, although in fact IBU is simply a measure of the beer’s alpha acid content. What does IBU stand for?
  5. Laverne DeFazio and Shirley Feeney worked as bottle cappers at what fictitious Milwaukee brewery?
