Humorous Abbreviations for VB

The good, the bad and the ugly of commercial beer and breweries, including microbreweries and craft breweries.

Vile Beverage was the first one I came across.

Speaking of VB, back in December I was at my work christmas party and was teaching one of the recently turned 18 yr olds a few things about beer. We went through your basic lager like a toohey's new to the other end of the spectrum with a Guiness.

After a few hours this guy was getting the hang of picking out the type of beer he was drinking. After the Guiness, this guy decided he needed something lighter and there just happened to be a jug of unattended beer on the table, so we pour ourselves a glass each. I ask him to take a sip first and identify the kind of beer. After a generous mouthful, this guy spasms in an unnatural fashion (much to my amusement) and does all that he can to actually swallow the beer and not spit it out over the table.

After several profanities regarding the taste of the beer, I take a small sip and utter two words.

"Vile Beverage."

Even those unaccustomed to beers know it is bad stuff.

That's probably because you need a fair bit of vit B the next morning to regain your basic motor skills.
