I'm sorry, I really am.. It's not like I needed more stuff on mine either. After all, a man can only try so many beers in his... Nah, I'm not sorry :)

Good thing I probably can't find any of these in the 'States.

Just had my first few sips of the Double Dealer. Not as hoppy as it says on the bottle, but SCARY drinkable. It's like a glass of water on a hot day, and that is a bit dangerous since it's 8%ABV.

There's mango there, and some peach I guess, very crisp with a very noticable hint of pine. I think this might be my new favourite summer beer.

Probably not, I don't thinks it's easy to come by other than in the UK and Italy. We do get in norway obviously, but we do get a ton of cool beer here. The whole beer thing have exploded the last few years, now everyone and his mother are attending beer tastings, making beer at home..

Very nice. It's exploded that way in my corner of the USA as well. Though the culture was strong here, beer and cider are becoming a lot more localized, with small breweries popping up and making their way around the taps. It's a great thing. We even have a couple new distilleries.

snake dog is by Flying Dog, out of Maryland. They have many, many righteous brew, and if you like beer, you should really try their Gonzo imperial porter. The one that comes oaked, in the bombers, not the 6'ers. The regular is good, but the oaked is, well, Gonzo!

Cool. I'll be on the lookout for that.
