Two of humankind’s greatest inventions: diplomacy and beer! Historically, we haven’t been terrific at both, but that’s not stopping one great beer-making nation, the Czech Republic, from engaging the world. @BBCNews has more in this story about beer geeks and beer brewing in a country where people can get “really sad to see a bartender destroying beer with a bad pour.”

I'd hoped that you would take her
all over hell's half acre
with the wolves
boilermaker
she thinks I'm just a faker
if only you could take her
to the wolves
awoooooo
boilermaker
martinis in a shaker
and nothing else will wake her
but the wolves
boilermaker
her 3am icebreaker
nobody else can make her
'cept the wolves
awoooooo

and keep out of harm's way
she refuses to stay
i'm so scared that they'll take her away
