This isn't news... We've been drinking really cheap beer here in Indy for a long time! |

Uh, beer's always been cheaper than gas here. And I'm talking good beer, not Bud, Miller and its ilk. |

Maybe instead of hydrogen or hybrid vehicles, they should make them run on beer!

My Dad, for a brief couple of days actually had one of Chrysler's experimental turbine cars in the early 60's. I said,"Dad, just think, if you were going to a party and ran out of fuel, you could pour Scotch in it and drive on." His reply," I'd crawl first." Darn, I love a beer, most times, most any beer!It does somehow taste better in May at Indy blended with methanol fumes,but for that 4-5 days it isn't cheap. |

I'm very confussed as to where you all get your beer if it is indeed cheaper than gasoline. So, I can buy 2 1 pint (UK) 0.9 Fl oz English Ale for $8.99 USD, So, cut that in half and convert the 1 pint 0.9 fl oz to gallons. That works out to 0.1567 Gallons (US) So, I pay $4.49 USD for 0.1567 gallons of fine english ale in the great US of A. So that works out to $28.65 per gallon. I'll take gasoline in the car thanks. Or in Canada, I can get 6-341 ml bottles of Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale for $10.80 (plus tax) so again lets work it out. 2046 ml or 2.046 L of beer for $10.80 that works out to $5.278 per litre of beer. Of course we all know that gas in Canada is about $1.20-$1.60 per litre so who's kidding who. I't was ment as a joke. Beer will always be more costly than gas, because "they" know that if need be, we'd all walk to get the beer before gas got that expensive. |

Wouldn't work--the cars would swell around the middle and refuse to go anywhere! |

Belgian beer's a bit more expensive than gas, but (let's say) a liter of Grolsch (perfectly servicable lager), ie two half-liter 'Beugels', including the bottle deposit, costs 1.05 euros. So, what, about $1.20? Fuel prices are currently at idiot levels, around $1.80 per liter (roughly 4 liters to the gallon), but still. |

We just got back from visiting our daughter at Indiana University during Little 500 weekend. No gas involved in the little 5 but a whole lot of beer. Paul Harrell |
