"Ketika saya melakukan sesi penilaian bir tahun lalu, saya menulis bahwa kebanyakan bir Amerika rasanya seperti diseduh melalui kuda. Itu menyinggung banyak orang di industri bir Amerika, juga para patriot yang berpikir saya bersikap subversif dalam memuji bir asing. Saya baru saja membaca studi bir Amerika yang sedikit diketahui. Jadi saya harus minta maaf kepada kuda. Setidaknya dengan kuda, kita akan tahu apa yang kita dapatkan."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

When I conducted a beer-rating session last year, I wrote that most American beers taste as if they were brewed through a horse. That offended many people in the American beer industry, as well as patriots who thought I was being subversive in praising foreign beers. I have just read a little-known study of American beers. So I must apologize to the horse. At least with a horse, we'd know what we're getting.
