He made up his mind, while he was drinking
He drank until the sun came up that day
And in his stupor, he had done some thinking
But how was he brewing with ever knowing the whey
He went to the store, and he started browsing
The clerk just watched him with nothing to say
He left with a mix packet and a carboy
But how was he brewing without ever knowing the whey
Chorus :
Everyone can see the beer that he’s brewing is dark, not gold,
It smells like potatoes that grew some mold
It seems rather nasty and has some sludge that’s grey
It’ll be really fun to watch him choke it down
The winner of the Loser’s Brew Crown
I’ll never drink something that someone would brew in this way, this whey
He took his kit home, and he started brewing
He brewed until the sun came up that day
A vat of boiling water and the mix pack
But how was he brewing without ever knowing the whey
Three months had passed, he went to the cellar
Thinking he’d be “The Man” of SCA
He took a big swig from the clouded vessel
And died in his basement without ever knowing the whey
Chorus
