So what are they putting in the bottles? It sure as heck ain't beer. ;-)
Speaking of beer, I saw a sad (but in some ways heartwarming) sight the
other day in San Francisco. A tramp was slumped by the side of the road
with his begging cup and a cardboard sign that read "No lies, it's for
beer".
I've never put my hand in my pocket for a tramp so fast. Such honesty just
had to be rewarded. ;-)

Hi Karen, I was only joking, I'd seen the other messages. It was just that
my first experience of US beer was Budweiser "The king of beers" and I've
not yet recovered from the experience. ;-)

Actually, I've just been drinking some Speakeasy Big Daddy IPA here in SF
and it was very palatable so I take back my sweeping generalisations about
American beer. There *are* some good ones after all.
Got any good ones in Florida?
