"Mr. Fell, I know what beer is!" Isabel laughed. "I don't know why it wouldn't be appropriate if it was going to cheer you up. Unless you sing poorly, then I'd ask you kindly to spare my ears." But she still grinned at the man and gave him a wink.

She was pretty sure that El knew what beer was, too. Not that she'd ever seen him drink, but his society wasn't as high strung about drinking as the one on Earth, she knew. So why wouldn't he?

Isabel just shrugged and grinned at El. Hopefully her commentary cleared that up.
