The beer whisky correlation!

I have just spent the last three hours at a wee informal whisky tasting and again after this the first thing that you need is a beer! I have experienced this after several whisky events such as whisky live london! You spend six hours drinking whisky and after that the first thing you want to do is drink a beer -

Conversley how often do people sit and drink beer all night and as soon as they call last orders people order a whisky. Funnily these are the people who after drinking 15 pints have one whisky at the end of the night and think that it is the whisky that has made them ill the next day!

Ok obviously I have had a few drinks tonight - now drinking a 10yo rip van winkle pretty good stuff but will need to taste it properly when I am soberer! So will try and do this soon.
