You know guys... the solution is in this thread already...

[Kuno of Gersenau]

Well going back to my LasCasas-theory I would say early 16th century. therefore:

A) 1506

[catt]

That's right! (according to my sources)

[Kuno of Gersenau]

Ok, here we go:

Which one of these beers does not come from Belgium?

A) Leffe
B) Peres trappistes
C) Kwak
D) Duvel
E) Loroyse
F) Blanche de Charleroi

[catt]

My guess is Kwak. Cause everybody knows Alfred J. Kwak comes from Holland. :rofl:

[Kuno of Gersenau]

:lol: That was a good one! :go:

But unfortunately Kwak is wrong, it is a Belgian beer ( and tastes very good btw...:wink:)

[catt]

I will never be able to listen to Alfred J Kwak again.... :sad:
*catt kicks the tapes under the couch before anyone sees them*

[C-F]

E) Loroyse?

don't have any songs to back it up with though...:wink:

[FrankishHero]

Ok, here we go:

Which one of these beers does not come from Belgium?

A) Leffe
B) Peres trappistes
C) Kwak
D) Duvel
E) Loroyse
F) Blanche de Charleroi

I know for a fact that

A, C, D and F are from Belgium. So, as C-F guessed E, I have to go with B.

[Kuno of Gersenau]

C-F is right, Loroyse is a French beer....it's your turn!

[C-F]

ok, here is one I found interesting:

What breed of horse did not originate in the United States?

a) Quarter horse
b) Saddlebred
c) Thoroughbred
d) Appaloosa

and don't ask me what the differences are....:wink:

[catt]

With a bit of luck it's C...

[C-F]

well, THAT took long....:silly:

catt is right :cheers:

[catt]

Hehe, well 50/50 chance.

Now let me think of something...
--
Which sunken Metropolis was found in the Bay of Abukir in 2001?

A) Kyrene
B) Troy
C) Alexandria
D) Thonis
E) Megalopolis
F) Atlantis

[Kuno of Gersenau]

hmm...abukir, that's in Egypt, right?

A,B,E, are not in Egypt, F doesn't exist and E I don't know.

C) Alexandria?

It still exists, but I think I once saw a documentaryon TV searching for the palace of Cleopatra and co.

[C-F]

so I'll go with

D) Thonis

then...

[catt]

Thonis is right! (It's the Egyptian name for Heraklion, but that would have been too easy.)

:hello: C-F, your turn! :hello:

[C-F]

@ Kuno, if you have a question ready, please go ahead, after all you did the 'research'...I'd have to think of one first...

[Kuno of Gersenau]

Thanks, I actually do have one...;)

A) A stranded whale
B) the turkish flag
