Beers Trivia Questions

1. "How about a pint of London Pride" you ask. "Well, it is a beer brewed by Fuller's Brewery since 1959". "Where does the beer get its name from"?

From Quiz
Beer Garden

Answer: Flower

Common name for Saxifraga × urbium. This flower was the first to sprout in the middle of the ruined buildings during World War II. Noel Coward composed the song "London Pride" where the flower is described as "a flower that's free." The alcohol by volume in England is 4.1% for draught beer and 4.7% for bottled beer. Fuller's Griffin brewery is located in the Chiswick area of London.

2. Such was the importance that beer played in the lives of people throughout the ages that laws for its manufacturing and distribution were even included in which famous set of ancient laws?

From Quiz Bottoms Up

Answer: Code of Hammurabi

The Code of Hammurabi is a set of laws and regulations from ancient Babylon. Believed to have been enacted between 1755-1750 BC, most of these laws (282) are etched onto a basalt or diorite stele (scientists debate its material) that is over seven feet tall, and which can be viewed in the Louvre Museum in Paris. The laws deal with criminal acts and punishment, family and property regulations and, under commercial law, regulations dealing in part with beer production and distribution. Serving smaller portions than that paid for, incurred the penalty of death by drowning, for example, and the daily allocation of beer to individuals (controlled by the rulers) was strictly based on one's social standing, whereby priests and administrators of the kingdom received twice as much per day as hard working laborers.

3. Which beer from Adnams shares its name with an SUV from Ford?

From Quiz It's My Round

Answer: Explorer

Explorer is a blonde ale which has a pungent apricot scent, which then gives way to pine and yeast flavours. It is a dry hopped ale, using Chinook and Columbus varieties which give it a dry, citrus finish. As with the majority of UK ales, it should be served at room temperature in order to allow all of the flavours to fully present.

4. Beer brewing is a very old art. Recipes for making same have been found recorded in which ancient writing?

From Quiz A Storm Is Brewing

Answer: Cuneiform

Cuneiform is considered to be the earliest form of writing known to man. It dates back to the Sumerian civilisation (4500-1900 BC) centred around Mesopotamia. Noted for its wedge shaped letters, hundreds of thousands of cuneiform written tablets have been unearthed by archaeologists in modern times. Found among these ancient recordings are various recipes for brewing beer. This indicates that if these recipes were put into writing by the date indicated on the tablets, the actual art of making this drink would have existed some time prior to that. Historians have noted that although the ancient Sumerians were indeed the first to put beer brewing recipes into writing some 6,000 years ago, chemical analysis of ancient pottery jars reveal that the art of brewing was known in ancient Iran one thousands year prior to this.

5. Established in 1860, this one of the oldest family-owned breweries still in operation in the United States in the 2010s.

From Quiz 10 Breweries I Have Visited!

Answer: August Schell Brewing Company - Minnesota

The August Schell Brewing Company is located in New Ulm, Minnesota. It was founded by German immigrant August Schell in 1860. It is the second oldest family-owned brewery in America - only after D. G. Yuengling & Son in Pennsylvania (1829). I stopped by Schell in 2002 for a visit and thoroughly enjoyed the brewery grounds, especially their beer gnome garden!

6. This piece of equipment measures the gravity of your beer.

From Quiz Homebrewing 101

Answer: Hydrometer

The gravity of the beer gives lets you know what percentage of alcohol your beer is going to be. It's best to take a gravity reading at 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15.56 Celsius) before your boil, after your boil and after fermentation.

7. This brewery makes the highly popular and highly sought after imperial IPA Pliny the Elder.

From Quiz Name that Brewery! Part Two

Answer: Russian River

This beer is among the top tier of imperial IPAs. It has clean assertive hoppy profile and is a real treat for anyone that manages to find one. Russian River is located in California and also makes some excellent sour beers.

8. This brewery in the oldest in Asheville and is among the largest North Carolina.

From Quiz Breweries of Western North Carolina

Answer: Highland

Highland's mascot is Scotty, a Scottish Highlander. Their winter release Cold Mountain is perhaps their most famous beer.

9. Who brews this high gravity beer and rare treat that comes in a bottle shaped like a lauter tun and is called Utopias?

From Quiz Name that Brewery!

Answer: Boston Beer Company

The alcohol percentage of this beer is upwards of 20% and drinks more like a fine liqueur than a beer. The Boston Beer Company is also well-known for its Sam Adams beer brand.

10. What happened in the United States in the first half of the 20th Century that resulted in a dramatic increase in the production of non-alcoholic beer?

From Quiz Beer Without the Alcohol

Answer: Prohibition/the Volstead Act

The prohibition of the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages in 1919 left breweries with few choices to stay in business. Every national brewery (e.g. Anheuser-Busch, Miller, Pabst and Schlitz) and many local breweries converted their factories to the production of non-alcoholic beer.

11. The original location of Arthur Guinness's brewery.

From Quiz Beer Jeopardy

Answer: What is Leixlip, Ireland?

In 1752, twenty-seven year old Arthur Guinness took the one hundred pounds his godfather left him in his will, and opened a brewery in the County Kildare town of Leixlip. A man of broad vision, Guinness left Leixlip in 1759 and moved to the city. He signed what was reputed to be a nine-thousand year lease on a four acre property at St. James Gate in Dublin. By the 1800's, after considerable expansion, Arthur had perfected his brew, and the Guinness brand has since become a world icon.

12. Which brewery created the beers called White Star, Iceberg, Steerage and Captain Smith's Strong Ale?

From Quiz British Real Ale

Answer: Titanic

Titanic Brewery started life in 1985 in Burslem, England. The brewery took its name from Edward Smith, captain of the Titanic, who lived just down the road. They now produce over 200,000 gallons of fine ale every year. Titanic Iceberg is one of my favourite beers and is made from Maris Otter malt and Cascade hops.

13. What is the largest beer festival in the world?

From Quiz Beers of Bayern (Bavaria)

Answer: Oktoberfest

Oktoberfest began in Munich, Bayern in 1818. Today it is the most famous and largest beer festival in the world. In 2007 6.2 million visitors drank 6.9 million liters of beer. (I was one of the visitors and several of the liters that year).

14. With nicknames like 'very-bad' and 'very-best' this drink is a very popular Australian beer?

From Quiz Aussie Beertopia

Answer: Victoria Bitter & VB & Vic Bitter

VB is Australia's biggest selling beer. Carlton and United Beverages produce the beer based on a recipe dating back to the early 1900's.

15. Naturally, microbreweries are distinguished by the volume of beer they produce per year. Roughly, what is the maximum number of barrels a brewery can produce annually and qualify for the "micro" moniker?

From Quiz Mad About Micros

Answer: 15,000

Standards vary from area to area (I did say "roughly"), but this is a pretty reliable figure. To put this into perspective, Anheuser-Busch's output is about 120 million barrels per year -- that's 8,000 times that of most micros!

16. This beer was one of the most popular beers in Quebec, Canada in the 1960s. Nothing like a nice cold beer eh? Until 16 deaths were traced back to the consumption of the deadly brew. What the name of the beer?

From Quiz Canuck Brew!

Answer: Dow Beer

Dow was one of the most popular beers in Quebec, with breweries in Montreal and Quebec City. In 1966 sixteen beer drinkers died mysteriously, the only common factor was: They all drank Dow beer. The deaths were eventually linked back to the salts that Dow brewery had put in its beer to preserve a foam head on the brew. The company recalled all the beer that was treated with the deadly salts, but Dow ended up closing as you couldn't give the stuff away after that! Brasserie Grain D'Orge is a actual beer in France. And Agony Beer? It probably was, but agony is a Funtriv editor, who's name just happened to fit in with this question.. :)

17. Joe believes that "The beaver is a truly proud and noble animal" What beer is he pushing with his patriotic rant?

From Quiz Canadian Beer Eh!

Answer: Molson's Canadian

The full rant is: "Hey. I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader. And I don't live in an igloo, or eat blubber, or own a dogsled. And I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English and French, NOT American. And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'. I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing, diversity, not assimilation, and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal. A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch, and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed'! Canada is the second largest landmass, the first nation of hockey, and the best part of North America! My name is Joe! And I am Canadian!" So of course to be a true Canadian you must drink Molson's Canadian. Mind you there is a lot of beaver in Canada. Gets everywhere - in offices and in houses and they have to be chased out. It's thirsty work and Molsons is a good beer to drink when you're chasing beaver.

18. What is the science of brewing beer called?

From Quiz Beer

Answer: Zymurgy

Zymurgy is actually the chemistry of fermentation, which is the basis of beer making.

19. Initials, initials, initials VB. The label is mostly green, but what colour are the initials?

From Quiz Australian Beer 3

Answer: Black

The VB label is a thing of great beauty. M. Gainsbourg wouldn't have touched the stuff unless someone had taken the trouble of distilling it for him.

20. What is the largest brewery in Australia to produce primarily vegan beer?

From Quiz Beer of Australia 2

Answer: Coopers, in Adelaide

Most beer is not suitable for vegans, as it is filtered using animal-based finings such as isinglass (powdered sturgeon cartliage) or even fish scales. Interestingly, United States paper currency is not suitable for vegans either, as it is still made with a dye derived from South American insects.

21. What is the most popular tap beer in Australia?

From Quiz Beer of Australia 1

Answer: Victoria Bitter

It is quite ironic that VB enjoys the strongest national sales on tap (as well as in bottles and in cans) when, as a rule, people in Victoria prefer Carlton Draught on tap and have shown mule-like stubbornness in resisting draught VB.

22. In March 1993, Miller became the first major American brewing company in several decades to introduce and nationally market a full flavored top fermented beer. What was it called?

From Quiz Have Another Drink On Me

Answer: Miller Reserve Amber Ale

The new beer was brewed with 100 per cent barley malt and true ale yeast.

23. What beer company boasts the oldest, registered trademark in the world?

From Quiz Have A Drink On Me

Answer: Bass

Bass was founded in 1777, at Burton-Upon-Trent, England, by William Bass. The trademark is the 'Red Triangle'.

24. Budweiser? (not to be confused with Budweiser Budvar)

From Quiz Match the Beer to the Country No. 1

Answer: USA

There is also the original Czech beer "Budweiser Budvar". Both are named after the town of Budweis. The "Budweiser" trademark is licensed to Anheuser-Busch in the USA and Canada and a minority of European countries while it belongs to the Czech brewery in most of the rest of Europe.

25. Which was the first of the major breweries to produce tab-top beer cans?

From Quiz Food and Drink 23 - Beer

Answer: Schlitz

A Pittsburgh brewery called Iron City was the first overall to use them. Schlitz followed suit only a few months after.

26. This brand is known as the 'King of Beers'.

From Quiz Beers Through The Years

Answer: Budweiser

The name 'Budweiser' has a long and storied history. It originally referred only to beer produced in the town of Budweis, today in the Czech Republic. The brewing tradition in Budweis goes back at least 800 years. In the 1800's Budweiser was produced by several different American brewing companies and was considered a style of beer like lager or porter rather than a specific brand name. In 1876 Anheuser-Busch began producing a beer they called Budweiser to capitalize on the reputation of the name. Through lawsuits and acquisition of competitors Anheuser-Busch eventually gained control of the name in the United States and made it into their number one brand. Since 1895 there has been a brewing company in Budweis that produces a beer called Budweiser Budvar. They've been going at it with AB for years in international court over the trademark. So far there is no clear winner, nor is there likely to be anytime soon. Basically, the Czech brewery owns exclusive rights to the Budweiser name in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, Norway and their home country, AB holds the trademark in the rest of the world. AB sells its products in most of these countries under the 'Bud' and 'Anheuser-Busch B' names. Interestingly, the Czech company has never used funny looking dogs, caped superheroes or talking reptiles (or amphibians for that matter) in their advertising. By the way, Anheuser-Busch's Michelob is also named after a famous brewing town in the Czech Republic.

27. What is the science of fermenting beer called?

From Quiz All About Beer

Answer: Zymurgy
