Star Wars 7 The Force Awakens heeft vandaag de release en met Star Wars is er ook bier:
Beer was an alcoholic beverage. There were many types of beer available throughout the galaxy. A distinction was made between beer (which included fortified beers, lagers and ciders) and stronger alcoholic beverages (like wine and liquor), which were referred to as spirits. The beverage had an unusual effect on Jawas, who would shrivel up like a slug if they consumed beer (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Beer).
While many of the people involved with the Star Wars saga were American or English, there was one Dutchman involved: Dickey Beer, a stuntman who has worked on many well known movies like Indiana Jones, Terminator III, Dune and Starship Troopers. In Return of the Jedi he is best known as the skiff guard Barada and a Biker Scout (http://starwarsinterviews1.blogspot.nl/2010/04/dickey-beer-interview-barada-star-wars.html).
Ondanks het feit dat veel foute quotes aan de filmsaga worden toegewezen, de domme dingen en onoriginaliteit in en van de film , is er volgens mij wel degelijk bier.
"Corellian ale... in a clean glass."
―Kyle Katarn — Gnome-speakernotes
Corellian ale was a popular alcoholic beverage brewed on Corellia. It also came in a spiced variety.
Corellian ale had a sweet flavor and medium weight body. It was possibly the most common alcholic beverage in the galaxy.
Kyle Katarn was one of many who would drink Corellian ale (though he would insist that it be served in a clean glass).
Wedge Antilles and Wes Janson shared a mutual appreciation for the drink, which contributed to their becoming close friends while members of Rogue Squadron.
Cade Skywalker ordered a "Corellian" at Rik's Cantina. When asked to specify ale or Corellian whiskey, he requested both. Jool then put the tab on the house.
In the first-edition WEG Star Wars Sourcebook, Corellian ale was described as being purple in color.
This drink was also known as 'Juri juice' in the PlayStation game Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
Corellian ale appeared in the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies. In the game, Corellian ale could be purchased from bartenders in cantinas around the galaxy. It should be noted that the same graphical model for Corellian ale was used for other items in the game (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Corellian_ale).
"You have to try this Tarisian ale. It's fantastic. We should have conquered this planet ages ago."
―Sarna
Tarisian ale was an extremely strong alcoholic beverage brewed on Taris. It was one of the planet's main exports. The ale was made from the glands of a tach, and because of the need for Tach gland, there were substantial imports of tach glands from Kashyyyk. Consuming just one was enough to intoxicate, or even incapacitate, inexperienced drinkers; or even experienced drinkers who were having their first Tarisian ale.
Perhaps for that reason, it was popular amongst the Sith troops who occupied Taris during the Jedi Civil War. The drink ceased to be produced after the planetary bombardment of Taris in 3956 BBY, due to the fact that few off-worlders knew the secret of how to make it, although Griff Vao claimed to have the recipe, and hoped to monopolize the drink after Taris was destroyed. Many of the Sith that purchased this drink may have used it as a way to forget the pressures of Sith life at the Barracks in the Tarisian military base which was described as "boring" by several of the Sith that worked there.
By 40 ABY Tarisian ale made a reappearance (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Tarisian_ale).
En naast deze mythische bieren, zijn er dus ook bieren die echt bestaan en verwijzen naar Star Wars, zoals aleheads aangeeft.
