The All New All New Groundspeak UK Pub Quiz


Recommended Posts

I thought it was easy to.. DING for Chudley..

Following on from my comment about Kolsch which for the uninitiated is a style of beer only brewed in the city of Cologne, here's a question about beer.

 

Bock, Maibock, Doppelbock and Eisbock are styles of dark lager.

 

What would you expect to see depicted on the label of these beers?

What do the following people have in common?

 

King Juan Carlos (Spain)

King Hussein (Jordan)

Rajiv Ghandi (India)

Marlon Brando (actor)

Barry Goldwater (US senator)

Garry Shandling (actor/comedian)

Joe Walsh (The Eagles)

 

Hey I have met one of that list (HM King Hussein bin Talal)!

 

I think it is either they all have held a pilots licence or they are/were all amateur radio enthusiasts. ;)

I protest! I have given the only complete answer i.e. What he won and the date!

 

...those who frequent this thread will know that more often than not, the ding goes to whomever gives the last fact :unsure: ... however, as Chudley has graciously stood aside, let's hear your question and get on with the quiz

 

I think It could be said I frequent this thread, and I for one agree with AJ, he DID give the last fact ie. that the prize was for physics.

 

I hope the condescending tone is just the way I'm reading your post...

Edit toadd: and I'm not just being pedantic about the fact that I wanted them largest to smallest and you put them smallest to largest, you have got some of them out of order.
