As a lover of all things alcoholic, and a hater of the false religion of climate change, I was shocked to read (I am always shocked while reading), that climate change is set to cause a rise in the price of beer. How is this even possible?

“Beer drinkers face soaring prices for their favourite schooner due to the effects of climate change, scientists have warned. Global warming is likely to cause a major drop in global yields of barley – a vital ingredient for brewers. Research predicts heatwaves and droughts could cause a fall in barley yields of up to 17 percent across the leading grain-producing regions of Australia, Asia, Europe and the US. This would trigger a spike in the price of beer, according to the study published in Nature Plants.”
I am not going to go to the site and read the article, because I can feel in my decaying kidneys that this does not sound right; I just know, as every drinking man knows that the universe should not allow such a violation of its natural laws. Anyway, can beer be made from something else, maybe out of the prolific weeds that grow everywhere feeding on carbon dioxide? Otherwise, we will all have to go down the Russian road and drink vodka, which will go down just fine in our hot and steamy climate.
