That's right - using water from the Genessee river that runs through

Actually we can get those things here too, most 'Liquor Barn' stores
carry them.  Seems that only German (or Swiss) beers come in them.
But I don't think they're exactly kegs, even though they're made of
tin, because their taps are different-- you punch a hole in the top
and your beer just basically flows out.  There's no way to reseal
them, so you better drink all five litres within a few hours or you
have a bunch of flat (though formerly excellent) beer.
I've never actually done the Coors party ball (Gott sei dank), but
they are actually these round plastic balls, red I think, of roughly
five litre capacity.  I'm not sure how their taps work.

   I'm looking for a simple definition of what exactly determines
whether or not a brewery (here in the states) is considered a "mega-
brewery" or a "microbrewery".  The way I understand it right now,
there are only a few (3 or 4) megabrewers...A/B, Coors, Miller, prob-
ably one or two others I can't think of.
   I guess I'm looking for both a definition of what makes a mega-
brewery NOT a micro (obviously based on a certain number of gallons
produced per year/month/time-period), AND the names of all the mega-
breweries that now exist in the U.S. (unless there are more than a
few).
   Much thanks in advance for unclouding my mind on this matter.  :)

Sounds like you had a Thurn und Taxis. Last trip there (two years ago)
we had some of their brew. We had a dopplebock, I think - those brain
cells were ritually sacrificed at the Oktoberfest shortly thereafter.
Very malty, not too sweet, quite refreshing.


As far as I know, it is not available in the U.S. Sorry. Guess you'll
just have to go back to Munich.

The only dark beer that Leinenkugel puts out is their seasonal bock. I 
believe they may have had a regular dark beer about fifteen years ago,
but it's long since gone. 

If they charged normal prices for the dark lager I'd buy it. It's a good
"pizza beer" as Charlie Papazian might say. Nothing spectacular but more
taste than regular Leinies.

I think that's the going rate. $13-$14. I'd be happier with two different
six packs of Sierra Nevada beers which seem to be down to $7/six pack.
It's a good beer, but not worth microbrew cost.

I recycled the bottles and kept the case. You can take the bottle separator

I was about to make a Twins pitcher joke, but no doubt Scott is tired of the 
reference...

Schell's Bock is now available. It's the standard American Bock style.
I think it's better than Leinie or Point Bock, but your mileage may vary.
Certainly more affordable than the Leinies' Anniversary Dark Lager.

Even with 16,000 cases that doesn't go very far when you consider how
many stores sell Anchor products nationwide. One of the stores in my
area ordered 15 cases. All of it was gone within about 10 days. I missed it.

Well there is always next year.

But for a "Radler" you normally use "Export" and not a Weizen. From the area
where I'm from (Hessen, Germany) we usually enjoy a 'Gespritzten' (2/3 apple
wine, 1/3 mineral water => 'Saurer' = sour or lemon soda => 'Suesser' = sweet)
while it is hot.

 Michael Shea's is a product of Genesee Brewing here in Rochester, NY. As
you can guess, this is an up-market brew intended to reach the same crowd
as Killian's. It is an amber brew, ale or beer not specified. If you buy
a six-pack you will note that the name Genesee does not appear anywhere.
This is a deliberate move to distance it from Genny's other beers. 

  IMHO, it is better that the run of the mill mass-market beers, on par
more or less with Killian's, and not quite as good as Genny's 12 Horse
Ale. It is my choice whenever I'm caught in a bar with a limited selection.

Gee, long ago pump type taps were available for these party kegs.
This was good since I found that after using them it was possible
to pop the bung on them, sanitize them, and refill them with homebrew.
I also had seen CO2 taps for these that used the little CO2 nodules
like pellet guns use for dispensing. Alas it appears that now the 
only taps available are the gravity taps which require punching a hole
in these kegs... I've switched over to 3 and 5 gallon Cornelius style
kegs for homebrew anyhow....

Does anyone else use the empties for anything?? I have sealed the 
air holes with silicon seal or glue and filled the kegs with sand.
They make really cool looking shelves for my stereo (much nicer than cinder
blocks).....

  I agree with your discription.  In a head-to-head, I'd choose Killian's   
because it has more taste (strange but true).  Shea's is definately in    
compition with Killian's, and around here it is replacing Killian's on-tap.

Granite City (read shitty), IL. And I blew alot of my Christmas money on
the following:

Samichlaus '92... I've looked for over a year and finally found it.
Everything I expected... a real treat, but it certainly is VERY alcoholic.

Paulaner Hefe-Weizzen... I experienced the original in Munchen once and
loved it. Well, I bought many many pint bottles while at home. This is
really super stuff.

3 Monts... the packie I frequent here in Hartford carries it, but I tried
it for the first time while at home. Wonderful.

Telluride... lives up to its name. A great buy and an extremely smooth,
drinkable brew. Highly recommended as a staple.

Wish I had more to say, but I'd already tried nearly everything else there!

OK, thanks for the info., but I don't follow: a reprint is not the same as
an updated edition (it may contain minor corrections, but usually not major
changes).  Besides, Jackson published a new Pocket Guide in 1991, the same
year as this reprint.
