So what you're saying is the reason why I don't like beer (just
catching on here) is because I'm 'Merican and not just 'cause I don't
happen to like beer?

'Kate

Nope. What I'm saying is that it's *possible* that the reason that you
don't like beer is that American beer isn't...well....the gold
standard...as it were.....

ducking and running

No need to duck and run......I don't drink that crap either....what is
really bad is when you get to places like Ga, and all they have ever heard
of is bud........


HEY....I happen to like Bud...Only out of a bottle and at my favorite
watering hole. Bud was made to be drank out of bottle, none of this
can stuff. Papst was made to be drank out of a can.


However I do have a fondness for Bass Ale, and Negra Medello






I'll take a 'blue' or 'golden' any day over the domestic stuff here,
runner up choice is fosters :-)

Ugh. Bud.

(It's not really beer).............just goes to show that P.T. Barnum was
right ;-)


Blue - now that's a lot closer. Kokanee would be my preference.
Fosters...Lordy...you shoulda seen the size of the Fosters tin Paul
was served in Manhattan! The tin was so big T took it home to show her
friends.

Must have been one of those 'oil cans' That was the only way you could get
it in the states 20 years ago (now I'm showing my age ;-) )

Never saw one like that when I was in Australia, so I don't
know what that's all about.

BTW, in Oz, I discovered that only tourists order Fosters. It's XXX or
DB there, it seems. But the Aussies make good beer.

Those liters of beer went down easy in Munich too!

I also liked the 1/2 wheat beer and 1/2 lemonade.......didn't get you
hammered in the middle of the day :-)
