Flies and Recycled Beer

Among beer drinkers young and old it’s said beer drinks best when cold. Once the human body’s chemistry converts it metabolically, it’s followed by an urgent need to rid itself of it with speed. And whether standing or sitting (which ever’s more fitting) it may still appear like beer only now it’s warm, less clear. Yet, to consider it drinkable would be grossly unthinkable. Not so flies who consider it a rival just as good as the original. Though the guy who flushes it as soon as he releases it denies every fly the privilege of evaluating its unique “vintage” before it can sample even a sip as proof of its connoisseurship.
