That is so funny!!!!!! There is a pig at "The Pub in the Paddock" near St Columbus Falls in Tassy, who loves a beer!!!!! And the publican encourages it!

Reared pigs on a small holding many years ago and we used to give the pigs the slops (dregs of beer out of the pumps and ends of barrels) every night.

I'll tell you now, the pork was the sweetest tasting meat I have ever eaten and there is a dish called "Beer Belly of Pork" and it is made from (obviously pigs belly's) pigs that have been soused with beer.  Try it, unbelievable  MMMmmm 

The reason the publican encourages is it............. it'll be dinner one day!!

Pork soaked in sweet cider is good too.

Perhaps this should be in what's cooking, sorry to digress.

I have this image of grey nomads with drinks in hand waiting while the secondhand car wiper unit rigged to a car battery drives the pig on the spit over red embers.

The crunch of the roast crackling while tucking into some Red Ned, priceless.
