Welcome my beer-loving friends! For this week's #beersaturday, I have decided to challenge you all with a beer-related quiz that will tap into that yeast-infused grey matter swimming around in your cranium and prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you really know your beer. Beware, this is not a quiz for the faint livered, this is a beer monster of a quiz and one that will have you hopping mad with frustration. But maybe one of you has what it takes? Maybe there is someone out there who has spent their life piously dedicated to the study of God's greatest gift? I hope so...
