...alcohol will kill you as proven by the fly that's floating around my glass

soooo cheers

Puts me in mind of the old story of the preacher lecturing a Sunday School class of children on the "evils of alcohol."

The preacher poured a glass of water, produced a worm from a box on the desk, and dropped the worm into the glass. The worm, of course, wriggled about the glass, unaffected by the water.

The preacher then filled a second glass with whiskey, took the worm from the glass of water and dropped it into the glass of whiskey. The worm, of course, died almost instantly.

Looking around at the class, the preacher said, "Now, children, what does this teach us?"

In the back of the room, a young boy raised his hand and said, "If you drink whiskey, you won't get worms?"

Everybody dies of something, Phil.  No way out of that.  So if I die of beer, well, I can think of worse ways to go!

Hi UJB. After reading your post I had a look on the net to see if it was available in the UK. Unfortunately it's only available in the eastern USA, it's a pity as I have a preference for dark beers, and their looked to be a couple of interesting ones
Thanks for your post.

Yeah they never tried to mass market their product. The name got around by word of mouth and occasional local ad campaigns. I just had a few on Saturday night.

My preference is to drink beer as local to me as possible depending on where I happen to be, also choosing to consume beers from small breweries rather than national or international breweries.

I'm with you on that one KIR. When I go for a beer, if it's available I go for Yuengling. It the oldest brewery in the U.S. and it's less than 2 hours from me.

The beach bar owner has a knack for finding attractive young barmaids.

i've done a little travelling and sampling of local delights. i once tried a cardiff beer called brains SK which i'm told stands for skull attack....the guy with me drank it too fast and deposited his lunch in the toilets. i couldn't finish my pint, so glad! tetleys had the same effect, and i believe they're now in partnership...go figure?

we had another little party on my patio tuesday night, with nibbles. i ate a whole pizza my self, which didn't go down too well with my family, it did with me, heavy on the pepperoni and cheese (welsh extra mature of course) and the weather has been brilliant for the time of year, people keep asking the wife if she's just come back from abroad she says no, just out the back!

we have a tremendous local brewery and beer of varying strengths called Felinfoel (pronounced VELIN VOIL) i tend to avoid it as it tends, even in it's weakest forms, to be a little strong for me, hence fosters. i also like the taste. FYI, it says on the can that it's brewed in europe by heiniken!

and the fly added some protein
