(Did you mean a [[Bheer|Matthew B. Tepper fanzine]]?)


'''Bheer''' is the [[fannish]] spelling of ''beer''. There is no difference in pronunciation. 

Some [[fans]] may stick an "[[h]]" into a word like "beer" or "beer bust" without the least inkling that, by implication, they're admitting an affinity for the [[fannish]] [[ghod]] [[Ghu]]. 

Then too, there are those who regard Beer (or Bheer) as a minor [[Fantheology|fannish deity]] unto itself–making Bheer the one [[Fantheology|fan religion]] which has followers in the non-fan college fraternity community. Nonetheless, [[Berkeley fandom]]'s [[Tower of Bheer Cans to the Moon]] was not just a [[fannish]] myth but both a religious icon or totem poll and a technological marvel. (And note that, implication or no, the [[fannish]] [[ghods]] are fannish ghods, with an "h," and not fannish gods without an "h".) Believers assert: “'''Bheer is the Only True Ghod.'''”

{{fancy2|text=
No less important to [[fannish]] than [[mundane]] [[drinking]], this useful beverage is even given divine honors by the [[Fantheology|sect]] of Beeros and worshipped as either Beer or Bheer. (The latter substance is also used in celebrating certain mysteries of the [[Ghuist]] religion.) [[Roscoe]] approves of beer. True Beeros, however, believe that "Beer is the Only True Ghod", advancing in evidence the fact that given enough beer one wants nothing more. But scoffers point out that with [[money]] one can buy beer.
