In Dutch that is:
"In de hemel is geen bier daarom drinken wij het hier"

I'm a bit confused now, about that "no beer in heaven." :-) Are you
absolutely sure?
If the kingdom of heaven is within (and it is), don't you think that the
beer we drink ends up in heaven after all...
This is with all due respect of course, all of you know that I love all
those guys dearly...
Emmy came back from India a few months ago and, I don't know whom she met,
but she was in Auroville and awfully close to Ramana's ashram, she also
visited this Buddhist Monastery (barley beer) and she is now convincing me
that we should go out once in a while and have a beer here in Victoria on
the Wharf side...
Those new micro-breweries make heavenly beer, she says...
Actually when I was a Trappist monk we drank beer, heck we made it
ourselves: Trappist Tripple from Westmalle... gets you in seventh heaven...
Proost, Skol, Gesundheit, Santé, Prosit...
