during our 15hrs train ride up zhang jiajie from guangzhou. This local guy wrote us a list of chinese riddles and rythmes. kept us entertained for the next 2 hours. :)
This work designed by Michael Fairfax stands in Exeter city centre.
One of the riddles -
Some acres of this Middle Earth are handsomely attired with the hardest, sharpest, most bitter of man's fine belongings:
It is cut, threshed, couched, kilned, mashed, strained, sparged, yeasted, covered, wracked, and carried far to the doors of men.

Shrewd men must think carefully what this creature is.
Answer - Ale
