Y'all just need to give radlers a try for the hot days. I don't mean fancy craft beer radler. I mean lager mixed with citrus soda or lemonade.

Sort of the opposite. Rich people using more expensive grains than barley that people would normally eat, and the monasteries holding monopolies on beer making via secret gruit recipes and stuff. Bavarian beer laws were more about maneuvering nobility/church politics and shaping the food supply via policy. And I'm not kidding about how for the British loving Boston felt like a sunny paradise until the winter hit:

Yeah I get drinking good beer not at freezing but basically until White Claw and similar drinks came out a Coors Light that’s been sitting in ice is basically alcoholic water with a little fizz that’s great for getting a light buzz after you’ve done some yard work. And I don’t like White Claw so those beers are still what I drink for that purpose. But I guess if you live somewhere that you do all your yard work in 50F/10C then you don’t need that.

Not true. I've seen them chop off pieces of my sausage and fly away with it. Also, at least for the Danish regular fuckers, what you want is to slowly move a knife onto them and cut them in half while they're sitting. No sudden moves before they're pinned.

Maybe you all are trying too hard to look cultured? remember when the UK was almost dissolved over an average US summer heatwave last year? it's usually cold and damp over there so drinking cold beer is like eating ice cream in winter to them.

I'm sorry that isn't immediately clear to you.

Yellow jackets are very overconfident fighters. They will always present an opportunity to slap them to the ground and stomp them while they are dazed. You are bigger than them. Believe in yourself and you will WIN.

There's a sliding scale between stepping on ants and toasting them with a magnifying glass, and slowly bringing down a knife to trap a wasp and saw it in half is absolutely on the magnifying glass end

'Cutting bugs in half slowly' is definitely somewhere up the gradient from 'slapping a mosquito', in terms of sadism. It's certainly nowhere near 'drowning cats in a bag' but it might be a stop on that journey. But who am I to talk? I've used chemical weapons on hundreds if not thousands of ground wasps. I'm sad now.

Yeah, shandies are all over the place in the US, and these beer smoothie things are starting to gain favor (I’ve loved the ones I’ve had, but I sort of feel like they’re homeopathic medicine beer; aka a drop of lager is added to each keg of fruit slurry. By the same logic my kitchen counter is temporarily beer whenever I over-pour).

You can even squash it afterwards with no risk. Way better than those traps where they slowly drown in sugar water, both ethically and dinner enjoyment wise. If that makes me a psychopath, so be it. I think killing aggressive venomous insects is acceptable.
