I received a sign tonight.

[Shol'va]

but this was surely a sign from god, I'm just not certain of what--

The sign is immediately obvious to any man with an ounce of self-respect: you drink shit beer and you should stop.
I had this reply ready and didn't hit Submit, I see that my bretheren already took notice of the glaring issue.
Carry on.

Tough crowd here.  You'll be happy to know that this week it's Sierra Nevada Summerfest Lager.

I'm really liking the drinking smilies.

Another sign. Granted it's not from 'up there', but print it out and wear it around town and you'll be downright popular!

OK, as a foreigner I didn't get anything. So this beer Rolling Rock is shit or not? If it is, why?

Rolling Rock is a AB(Anheuser-Busch) beer. The company attempts to pass it off as something of a higher quality than bud or bud-light. It has a similar taste profile to bud(i.e. water). Quite a few people like it, however to me it tastes of piss water.

I myself prefer a Scottish wee heavy(thick,heavy malty) over watery beers(Busch, miller, coors).

Yes, but it was acquired by AB only within the past decade or so.  I believe they moved the operation to New Jersey.  When I started drinking it in '73, age 14, and for many years afterward, it was an independent brewery at Latrobe, Pennsylvania.  As teenagers, my buddies and I drank a lot of RR with our girlfriends (this was the pre-MADD era, the drinking age was 18 then, our driver's licenses didn't have pics, I had an older brother who reported his license as lost and gave me the duplicate, fake IDs abounded--if the clerk even bothered to card you).  Nowadays, I probably don't drink more than a case of it in a year, but I enjoy it when I do.  What can I say, it's a beer from my youth, and I have a lot of old but fond memories tied up in the brand.

I have no issues with people who like RR, it just don't meet the flavor profile I personally enjoy. The first beer I bought legally was a Mcewan's scotch ale. I remember being in awe of how thick and flavorful the beer was when compared to the thinner american beers I had grown up snagging from my father.

But when its all said and done it comes down to taste. I dig what I dig, you dig what you dig. At least it wasn't wine. I can respect that.

Maybe just the blue lable of the bottle attracted it. Insects generally are attracted to blues and violets

All these armchair philosophers, and nobody to tell you the plain and simple truth: there is simply no way of telling what this sign might be until you pay the priest to sacrifice a goat.

I suggest you do so soon, in case God put a time limit on whatever glorious and bountiful offer he has in store for you.

Good thing I saw a "Goats for sale" sign when I was out driving a couple days ago.

[AllPurposeAtheist]

As an atheist you should probably sacrifice a baby, cook it and serve with a RR.

I miss beer. This topic makes me sad. Though, I live by a river (Suwannee) and fireflies are everywhere. Of course so is every other bug out there and millions (I do not exaggerate) of tree frogs. They cover the walls of my house at night, which is okay, I guess since they eat the bugs.

Hmm. Thanks guys.

Welcome to the land formerly known as milk and honey, now known as the land of pissy beer.

Stop drinking that 50¢ beer from Walgreen's. It's not beer, it's actual urine. Cow urine.
