FAQ

Is the rose colored glasses quote really from Hemingway?

No, that is a common misattribution. It is F. Scott Fitzgerald, from his 1922 novel The Beautiful and Damned.

Are there real quotes specifically about beer and friendship?

Very few hold up to sourcing, which is why we kept this list mostly original and clearly labeled, with the one verified quote about drinking generally called out.

Quote attributions are checked where possible; several oft-repeated “beer quotes” online are misattributed or unverifiable, and we flag those rather than pass them off as fact.
