This should be comic 3342, not 3242. And the next one is wrong too. Just a heads-up :)

Hence why I said 6.66C, which is right between best temperature for pilsner and ale.

... and some beers are drunk at room temperature.

Peter, you know 66.6 F is colder than 66.6C right? 66.6C is near boiling.

66.6F does seem a bit on the high side for any kind of beer. 6.66C is much more in the range for dark beers.

Once again I identify with Brun. In fact, yes my beer mugs DO have skulls on them and I am a complete beer snob.

Totenkopf is German for "skull and crossbones", so it's "skull and crossbones birthday", if translating it properly. Translating compound words by pieces is almost certainly going to give (often hilariously) wrong results, as the compound word meaning may have drifted from its base words. It only gets worse when the compound word is compounded further (as is common in for example German), like it is here. Part of my job is implementing translation in user interfaces for industrial equipment, so it's an issue I have dealt with a lot.

What, no "Uncle Disgusting's Spider Brew"?

You might want to check your translation... death's head birthday would be todtkopfgeburstag. What you've got is dead head's birthday. Speaking as a dead head, I approve.

I have never so badly wanted to consume a brew of an uncertain nature in my life.

She's lucky. A proper stein with a functional cuckoo is getting hard to find.

I'm sure it must be there, Fortunato, perhaps just a bit further back...

I'm surprised with some of what has gone on in this comic that it's not in Northamption MA, but more likely Arkham or Dunwich

Goddammit Jeph... I love Brun but you can't just reference Faye and Bubbles and keep me in suspense this long...
