Todays word lager, meaning the up above in English also means a type of beer, but lager in Dutch means lower, while lagers (plural) means bearings and leger means army - but also the lair of hares (not rabbits, who dig holes).

I mean, pfffjjwt.

also means a type of beer

From what I have garnered from the OED.

lager: 1858, Amer.Eng., short for lager beer (1853), from Ger. Lager-bier "beer brewed for keeping," from Lager "storehouse" (see lair) + Bier "beer."

Hmmm Beeeer.

There is one school of thought that believes man went from being a hunter-gatherer to farming because we learned how to make beer. Lager, it could be argued, may be responsible for cililization.

Now that is a hearty theory, One I could buy into.

Lager, it could be argued, may be responsible for cililization.

Was that cililization hic, or Silliliation? hic.
