# Yeah.
The continent find us a strange bunch. We will pay top money for a beer that they consider to be standard gnats piss. Trouble is that we get the fighting juice and they indeed get the gnats piss. same with Yank beers. I recall many years ago when we first had Budweiser on draught in one of my father's pubs. At one time I was visiting there was a Yank ( big guy, contractor ) staying in town with his wife. Of course he came to the pub for the bud and was embarrassed that he ended up passed out and me, two thirds of his size went on to a night club afterwards.

What it says on the label may not be what you think is in the bottle/keg

# Must admit
most of the time I'm over 'teh other side' I hunt out Grimburgen Double (may have spelt that wrong)
Bloody nice Belgian beer - never had bad results from it

EDIT: talking to a couple of yanks in belfast many years ago: they'd been traveling round europe for a few months & the one thing they said they'd really miss was beer - couldn't face the prospect of going back to miller, bud etc.

though there are some wonderful micro breweries in the states these days

I can't promise to be polite to fools when full of it though. Actually I can't promise that sober.
