Rosh & Pivo
Rosh
You’ve been brewing with some weird stuff lately? I’ve got a spare bike engine—let’s see if it can survive your next batch.
Pivo
Nice idea, buddy. I’ll toss that bike engine into the kettle, give it a whirl with a splash of fresh hop heads and maybe a hint of caramelized sugar. I’ll make sure it’s pre‑heated, keep a fire extinguisher handy, and if it survives the brew I’ll brag about it for months. If it doesn’t, at least the beer will have a wild backstory. Bring it on!
Rosh
That’s a damn wild idea, but don’t go dropping a whole engine into a kettle. If you can keep the metal out of the brew, the beer will be fine, but you’ll end up with a smoking mess and a broken bike. Stick to grains and hops, keep the engine in the garage, and you’ll get a better story and a better beer.
Pivo
Sure, sure, I get the safety drill. I’ll keep the engine in the garage and make the beer with real grains and hops. But hey, if I ever need a prop for the next tasting party, I’ve got a spare engine ready to be the centerpiece!
Rosh
Yeah, keep the engine out of the brew and just use it as a prop. Just make sure it’s clean and off‑gas before you put it on display.
Pivo
Got it—engine stays in the garage, but I’ll paint it gold and put a little brass plaque on it that says “Master Brewer’s Ride.” You’ll see it in the next taproom, look, and say, “Wow, that’s a bike, not a kettle!” No smoke, no breakage, just a clean prop to toast to.
Rosh
Looks good, just keep that plaque clean so nobody trips over it. When the beer’s poured, you’ll get the applause you’re after. Just remember the engine’s still a bike, not a mixer. Good plan.
Pivo
You bet, I'll give the plaque a wipe‑down before each event and paint it bright so nobody trips. And yeah, I’ll keep the engine in good bike shape—no mixing it in the mash. Cheers to a clean prop, a smooth brew, and a standing ovation!
Rosh
Sounds solid. Keep the bike in gear, the plaque clean, and the brew in the pot. Cheers.
