Exactly, would they refer to it as Beer? I think not get, get me my Mead/ale Wench sounds a lot better than get me my beer wench :D

Good question. I know they drank meade but this actually came out of a book called "Eaters of the Dead." I just went with what it said in the book. Who really knows if they called it beer or not...I sure as hell don't.

LOL, it was probably a poor work of translation.

You're probably right Mr. Sleep. Seeing as the Vikings haven't been around for a 1000 years or better, there have probably been some errors here and there.

Surely if a 19 year old semi stupid lazy assed tosser can figure it out, couldn't some educated translator do the same?

Well one would think so.... Let's just ask Fable about it later, he always knows the answer to this sort of thing. :)
