What Did You Do In The Garden?

For a minute thought it was @majorcatfish responding....

It was the beer mentioned that did it for me. Thought for sure it had to be Major and not sweet Miss Bee.

there's a twelve pack of Old Milwaukee sitting on a garden path right now. it is very old Old Milwaukee because we bought it many years ago when Mom was on her "garden potions and sprays" kick. never used any of them. the case sat in the shelves for all those years. the other day we emptied out the garage and got rid of a lot of things and so the beer in cans will sit there in the sun until they bake/explode in the sun or i do something like practice target shooting using them with the air rifle. i sure don't want to be anywhere close to them after they've been baked in the sun. you can tell just by feel that they're gonna pop in a messy way when opening... brewing extra strong sunbeer?

i don't think @majorcatfish would drink these. he seems to have good taste in beer (always drinks from a glass bottle that i've seen ).

What ? ...So beer out of an aluminum can does not taste as good as from a bottle . and here I thought beer from a tap come from a much BIGGER aluminum can set underneath a bar or table but it tastes like out of a bottle ?

You got that right...beer tastes like someone fermented nasty ol' gym socks, strained the water and then chilled it to drink.

Not good for much of anything but slug killing...and that's what I'd like to try it for.

Got my second low tunnel up and running, planted a few romaine under it and seeded another tray of greens.

Garden doing very well thus far....I'm impressed with how healthy everything looks.

Beer kegs are usually stainless steel. Might help with the taste difference? I don't see how...it all tastes foul and not fit for human consumption.

Bee beer does work great for safely killing slugs
