Beer, Get Your Beer Here

Not having the slightest clue what Justin means by this comment - "Duff Beer, not Duff Beer Man, Duff Beer" - I went a hunting on the internet to see whether it's linked to a specific Simpsons episode. Well, fancy my surprise when my search yielded a hit for actual Duff Beer. That's right, an Australian company brewed the stuff until a lawsuit put an end to it.

Duff Beer has now become a collector's item that's sold on eBay. Buyer beware if you're planning on placing a bid on any Duff Beer. Not only is it of ancient vintage for beer, but a woman in Australia was nabbed on fraud charges for "selling" cans of Duff Beer she never owned.

Duff Beer has to be one of the most important secondary "characters" in the sitcom. Has Homer ever gone an episode without one? Never (do dream sequences count?) has a speaking role, but is the tiem that is used to tie characters together. Has played the savior, the spoiler and the vehicle for the plot line.

Sure, but has it ever told anyone to "Have the Rolling Stones killed"?
