In Germany (where I was a soldier with much experience in beer drinking) they have a lager called Dopple Lager. Only a little more rude that Christmas Beer; it is a smoked beer, aged and taken from the bottom of an undisturbed keg.
The fist swig tastes like acrid smoke, bacon, and something two weeks dead. The second swig tastes like bacon. The third swig tastes like the richest, most full-bodied mouth-full of beer you have ever met. The fourth, and foregoing swigs are even better. At this point you have consumed eleven or twelve ounces of alcohol; in a mere four swallows. Each swallow there after tastes like a gift from the gods. At the end of the first liter, asphalt will taste good. Which is fortunate, as you will be kissing it regularly an your way back to where you are staying. Beer tasting can only be done it you are not drinking it. A cunundrum at the very least. If you can stand drinking it, and it doesn't kill you in the morning, drink it and rejoice. This was a day that had beer in it! Doug --- will hill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ha ha, it will be a while till I buy a $7 six pack > again, and I did it with my wife's help.
