When I was 18 and in my first job, my boss and I installed the very first windows NT file servers for a major uk public sector organisation. They were all named after beers that we’d drunk on team nights out. We had Blacksheep, Tanglefoot, Snecklifter, and so on. They were in a test environment so it didn’t matter. Until they went into production…
That was over 30 years ago now, but I still usually resort to beers.

Slightly unrelated but when my family was remodeling our kitchen in the home I grew up in, we pulled the oven out and found the side of the cabinet had an interesting scrawl on it that must’ve been from one of the builders:
“When you’re out of Schlitz, you’re out of beer.”
I found it so amusing wondering the motive behind that was. Lol
