  1. Ok, wrist smacked, tangdog!!!!!!

     

    I only included USA beers, as in the mass lagers, ie Bud, which are nothing like the European lagers such as Duval and La Trappe. It was Mr Jackson who wrote to the Czech government to stop them buying the real Budweiser so the could close it and solely use its name, in the UK the Americian Budwesier must use the name Bud and not Budweiser (Czech large) due directly to Mr Jackson and Camra. I know there is some great ale and real lager coming from micro-breweries state-side, but in the UK you have to go to specialist shops to get hold of it. It is a shame, but a lot of the younger people in this country don't want a beer with favour they what the name, and missing out on the brilliant ale and lagers from Europe and OK, OK the USA. Sad but true.

     

    Am I forgiven?

     

    PS I still have a T-Shirt from Pete's Wicked Ale, from Palo Alto brewery!!!

    A great writer who wrote about a great subject. RIP.

    A great loss to the Ale community. I have had the pleasure of meeting him on a number of occasions, and he was a friendly and welcoming man. I worked at the Great Briatian Beer Festive, and he would run a number of beer tasting session which showed his passion for beer from around the world, wether Real Ale or proper larger from Europe, not the rubbish from USA and Aus. A great loss to all.
