Could it be the new kid and not the survey (http://go.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=oddlyEnoughNews&storyID=9350226&src=eDialog/GetContent) that caused the shortage?

"Outsiders don't understand why we are not raising production. But for us life in the abbey comes first, not the brewery."



A statement that's sure to confuse the shit out of the Asatru.

"We are not brewers, we are monks. We brew beer to be able to afford being monks."

Get your priorities straight, men!

The Christian Brothers Winery finances those monks’ educational services for the young and the impoverished.

dicksbro,

Yessir, it is not uncommon. The Benedictine monks of Buckfast Abbey in Devon, England sell a tonic wine called "Buckfast" to fund their prison Chaplaincy efforts as well as the Benedictine tradition of education.

jseal,

It was a joke. I volunteer for the Franciscan monks soup kitchen in the 'hood. I just love beer too, is all. :)

Steph,

Good joke. :thumb: I suspect we'd be better off if more people did volunteer work of any type.
