You’re allowed a few mistakes in life, yeah? Can you guys forgive me for this video? It’s out of focus. Also, you wouldn’t believe how many times Sam and I said “my rhymes are bottomless.” I had to cut half the funny from the video because we were quoting the same line from the song every time. Now that I watch the video, it looks like the actual lyrics are “my lyrics are bottomless.” Wow. We were pretty drunk. I still like “my rhymes are bottomless” better anyway. Two mistakes today.
This was the 14th beer of the day. That means we had most of seven beers each, but these aren’t your ordinary beers – pretty much all of them had ABVs of over 5.5%. To put this in terms that us drunks understand, we were basically having a beer every 15 minutes for the duration of this shoot. You can understand why it might be a little out of focus if I’d inadvertently kicked the camera and forgotten to refocus it, or if I’d remembered to refocus it and this was just what I thought clarity was at this point in the shoot. Rough times!
The Hop Hazard is named as such because the brewers want you to be aware that not all hoppy beers need to be the hop-the-crap-out-of-it west coast hop style. Step back from the barrier, sir; you’re entering dangerously balanced pale ale territory here!
