Good gravy! If that’s beer I wonder how many gallons? On a New Years night, that load might make it a couple hours. Maybe....

That is a rip off of an old New Yorker Magazine cartoon except the
truck was labeled "cheap white wine".

Not sure what you mean. The picture was taken on the street in Dublin. A real truck, with a real
driver, pulling a real tank trailer. That was the second one I saw while there.

Far out. I wonder what they are carrying? I can't imagine it is
fermented beer unless the bottling plant is not where the brewery is.
I always assumed beer actually fermented in the bottle like home brew.
I guess I should have paid more attention at Busch Gardens.
