Is this what they call watered down beer?

“Lest we forget.”

Or at least what they called “Near Beer” (And even I’m not old enough to remember that!

Wasn’t there something about “making love beside a lake” too?

And who can forget the classic song Pour it back in the Clydesdale?

I never heard either, and after hearing of them I’d very much like to forget both.

I’m with you, Johanan Rakkav…

Hey! You shouldn’t SPFFFFFF the water

Growing up in Central Illinois, I thought the all beers were Pilsners, like Bud (ugh), Old Style (double ugh), and Coors (GACK, spew, retch). Then I moved to California and tried my first red ale. For the first time, I discovered that it’s possible to drink beer because you like it, not just because it was the cheapest way to get buzzed.

Soon after that, I discovered Guinness, and in 18 months I was in rehab…

I’m Canadian and the beer is pretty good here, especially the micro brewery beers. Granville Island micro does a wonderful IPA.

In Germany they have 21% beer, great stuff!!!

They sell 21% beers almost anywhere, in fact up to 24%. Yuo just have to look for htem. Hint: you won’t find them at a grocery store.
