Everyone needs a hobby, but thats all it can be. Besides, it isn't really possible to know much stuff when it comes to beer. For example the ancient Finnish book called Kalevala, manages to get through describing the creation of the earth in about 200 or so verses, but naturally takes twice as mayny verses when it gets to the bit explaining the origins of decent booze. If talking about priorities, I've got to admire the Finns for theirs. -- "You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on"
