Klingon Beer

Posted by Soulskill on from the don't-drink-and-warp-drive dept.

An anonymous reader writes: "We may not have Saurian Brandy or Romulan Ale, but we'll soon have Klingon Beer. Tin Man Brewing Company in Evansville, Indiana has gotten the OK from CBS to create 'Klingon Warnog,' a Dunkelweizen with 'a modern aroma [of] predominantly mild banana and clove.' It will have an ABV of 5.5%. The Klingon beer will apparently join Vulcan Ale in the Federation of Beer. I wonder what their Prime Directive is."

    Taste of prune's what, exactly? There's a word missing in your sentence.

    "Prune's" is how the Klingons spell "prunes". They add a glottal stop before the "s" so that they can linger on the word for longer.

    You mean the one where the Klingons looked like sad rejects from the late Beatnik period?

    Personally, I always liked Voltaire's description:

    What is with the Klingons? Remember in the day
    They looked like Puerto Ricans and they dressed in gold lame.
