A beginner’s guide to the alcoholic content of beer
thespoof.com – Sep 29, 2007
This is due to the numerous debates I've been privileged to engage in with various associates while seated at the local tavern with the subject consistently drifting to this topic whenever some innocent newcomer would wander in and place an order for an Amstel Light. ur small yet hearty group is for the most part made up of Samuel Adams drinkers with the exception of Leonard who is a Guiness man. The poor unsuspecting rapscallion who dares to order an Amstel is bound to be the recipient of merciless teasing for assorted reasons such as the rather bland taste of the product and the lack of creativity in the labeling but mostly for the slight alcoholic content of 3. 5 for which Amstel Light is famous.

I found three different Cantillion and a bottle of Deus. Al kinds of other rarities to be had but I left them all for those locals who appreciate them. I forgot to look for some Beer Geek Breakfast while I was there so I’m glad I found it down the street at Lunar Brewing Co. In the end a case of bombers cost me close to $100 with tax so I listed the place as a bit pricey. In all fairness to them I assume the prices are pretty right on for the area but I feel most places are a little high in their pricing so take this information for what it’s worth and consider the source. Definitely worth a stop.

Gay Parade Sparks Miller Beer Boycott
ChurchReport – Sep 29, 2007
" The boycott comes after leading Christian groups were outraged at Miller’s sponsorship of a sadomasochistic anti-Christian homosexual parade that regularly includes full nudity and public sex acts. "Miller is sponsoring an incredibly outrageous and palpably anti-Christian event in San Francisco: the Folsom Street Fair" explained Donohue. "This all started when we learned that Miller was sponsoring an event that featured an obscene ad trashing the Last Supper. After being pressured Miller offered a lame statement of regret and said it was pulling its logo from the ad.

5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | drink: 4. 6%n tap at Pizza Port CarlsbadA: Vibrant metallic gold color. Fairly clean with just a few bubbles moving around. Head is full and creamy almost snow white and sticky as hell. S: A healthy blend between citrus and pine. Some grapefruit oils and pine resin are really what this is about.

2%My Faxe came in a massive 1 Liter can. Yes you read that right a 1 Liter can! I’ve never seen a beer before that ccomes in a 1 Liter can before. I’ve seen those pony kegs before but not a regular pop tab 1 Liter can before. It’s more of an oddity than anything. It looks like a white oil can with a beer label on it. This beer label is gold forest green and red colored with the name of the beer in big gold letters and above the name of the beer is a head shot of a long haired smiling Viking… I’ve seen those pony kegs before but not a regular pop tab 1 Liter can before.

This beer label is gold forest green and red colored with the name of the beer in big gold letters and above the name of the beer is a head shot of a long haired smiling Viking. To me a Viking would always have a serious face on but I guess this one is the rare sensitive Vikings. I don’t think many Vikings are or were like him. Under one of the beer labels is the US Government warning and in between the labels is the address of the brewery ingredients barcode US distributor and who the distributor in Poland is.

They like to overwork the servers at the expense of service. You will be acknowledged but feel free to ask for your next round. Great food and good beer selection but the service and atmosphere turn me off.

Brick walls and wooden displays with breweriana dominate the interior. At summer time the pub opens up a large beer garden in front of the house. The place was much crowed even at a Monday evening in the middle of January. People were happy and enjoyed themselves but the loud background music disturbed me. The guests seemed to be heavy smokers all of them. Together with bad ventilation I found it hard to fully enjoy the beers.
