While I can not definitively say just exactly what bull and/or goat piss,
fresh, stale, watered-down, or otherwise, tastes like, I am quite sure that
in addition to the truly horrible bud, mil, and oly, we must also include:

	Bush
	Pearl
	Schaefer

Lites, such as they are, should all also be included, of course.

OK, Aggies, listen up.  There's a couple of famous loopholes in
the Texas alcoholic beverage laws.  One is the "Shiner" law
that allows small ( less than 50K barrels/year, I think)
to do their own distribution.  The other allows anyone who has
a marine mammal park of the right size, acre wise, that is in the
right county, population wise, to possess both brewers and retailers
permits.

As to the first, not even the Spoetzl brewery in Shiner is dumb
enough to keep a fleet of trucks.  Brewers brew, distributors
distribute.  But, if you were an enterprising small brewery and
wanted to drive the van to your retail outlets, more power to you.

As to the second, that's why Anheuser-Busch (the only evil empire
left on the planet) can own Seaworld in San Antonio.

I think Leinies Bock is excellent.  I don't know what kind of distribution
Berghof has around the country but they describe their beer as Dortmunder
style and it compares pretty well to the Dortmunder Union that I've had
on tap (but that was here in the US, not Germany).  If you can get Berghof
don't waste your time with a relatively flavorless brew like Samuel Adams.

  Hi dear fellow beer netters,

  I am writing a paper (actually it is a talk I am giving) about beer.
 I am trying to focus on German beer (actually the difference between
 German beer and American beer).  

   Any suggestion onwhat basis beer could be compared (e.g. purity law, etc.) ?

  Please send me or post your opinion/suggestions.
  
   I am German and I have had several chances to drink beer here and in
  Germany.  I would like to have opinions from fellow experts/fanatics.

   Thanks,

I agree, but Sam Adams is about twice as expensive, around here at least.
I'd go as far to say that SA is the best lager brewed on this side of
the pond.  It's priced accordingly, unfortunately.

I can't think of any that have NO barley malt.  Many wheat beers
are upwards of 75% wheat malt : 25% barley malt.  Some Belgian beers
use unmalted wheat and oats as up to 50% of the grain bill.
And, of course, our wonderful Budmilloors type beers use up to
50% unmalted corn and rice.  There are some beverages which
are technically beer- i.e., fermented grain- but not generally
considered beer, which use no barley.  Examples are Kvas, a
Russian drink made from fermented bread, and Saki, fermented rice.

I was in a Houston Whole Foods last weekend was astonished to see
Samuel Adams Octoberfest in bottles.  I don't know how it ended up this
far south, because we don't even get the other types of Sam-  just the
Boston Lager.  Anyhow, the bottled version is almost as good as the keg
version, but not quite as ballanced.  It is well worth buying, though!

I also got a free Samuel Adams baseball cap.  I love it, but I hope Sam
isn't going the way of the American big 3 with advertising.

Nope, the beer is named "EKU 28", and it's 13,5 % vol!

No disagreements here.  Not long ago one could buy CM in my home town

Leinenkugel used to be okay, but something dreadful has happened to it.

Drinking your own p*ss is actually quite healthy for you. A former Prime
Minister of India used to drink a quart of his own p*ss each day, and he was
ruling a country of 3/4 Billion people at age 80+!

The health hazard you should be concerned with is drinking horse p*ss
(aka Bud) in the first place. It is common knowlege why Anheuser-Busch

Last week the Independent had an article on imported bottle beer. It went
into some detail about the social climate in some of London's fast
growing 'Bottle Only' bars and pubs. The bottom line seems to be that
marketing is everything and taste runs a poor third. A list was published
of the top ten imported beers into the UK.

	1.	Holsten Diat Pils
	2.	Becks
	3.	Grolsh
	4.	Sol !
	5.	San Miguel
	6.	Budweiser Budvar ( YES !)
	7.	Peroni
	8.	Michelob
	9.	Rolling Rock
	10.	Miller Genuine Draft.

Now get the prices, in one bar :	Sol = GBP 2.00
					Rolling Rock = 2.20
					Molson Dry = 2.30

Bud, Miller Pilsner and Coors are brewed under licence in Britain.

If you draw the bottom line out of the above you can see Uk and USA
markets are equally susceptible to mass advertising .what a massive
impact prohibition had on the USA brewers as to regards the independent
brewers but people in a country with a strong brewing tradition can still
be duped.

Thanks to the Independent who's permission I did not ssek.

Mine's a pint of bitter !

And doesn't EKU have a beer that's 28%?  Then again, I seem to remember them
saying that they couldn't call it beer, but a malt liquor.  That might explain.

Does any one know if Oranjeboom is available in the Triangle Area of NC?
If it is not available here, does anyone know the closest place it is 
available? My bet would be the Brickskeller in DC or the Ton-Eighty
(180) Club in Blacksberg VA.

A beer stein for tossing back *ONLY* 220 beers in 365 days? What kind
of trophies do they have for *THIRSTY* people?  *B^)
