Re: [MBZ] OT Beer review
Most of the Doppelbocks I've had have been in the low to mid 6% range. I have a friend who comes from Germany every couple of years, her carry on bag always clanging with bottles when she arrives. lol. Had a couple of great doppelbocks last time, I'll have to look up the names. I keep the labels off some of the really good ones, and store them in a book, along with a short note. If I haven't had a beer for a year or so, I always forget what it was like, the notes help. I do the same when trying different wines. I'll have a look for Paulaner Salvator next time I'm shopping, see what I can find. Thank for the tip. Ed 300E On 9 June 2010 17:30, Greg Fiorentino wrote: > I had some Paulaner Salvator once.

I had some Paulaner Salvator once. I'm sure it is pretty high in alcohol content, yet very well balanced. It's about balancing the alcohol sweetness with the hops bitterness and other flavors.

Re: [MBZ] OT Beer review
I'm kind of like that too Curt. To me, beer is a bit like a taste of the world, more so than wine. So I'll buy a number of different imported beers, and match them up with what I'm eating. I can't remember the last time I bought a case of domestic stuff. Not that some of it isn't good, I just seem to make beer shopping more of an occasion now, same as shopping for wine.

All the suds here have the alcohol content printed on the label. And in the typical Canadian way, anything that smells good, tastes good, or makes you feel good, must be taxed and priced accordingly. A can of Fuller's London Porter..$2.45 a 500ml can! And that is in no way the most expensive beer. Shocking I tell you!

Re: [MBZ] OT Beer review
Sam Adams makes a whole bunch of different brews, not many of them seem to be available with any regularity outside the Bahstahn area. One of my favorites is Stock Ale, which is a little more flavorful and darker than the regular Boston Ale. If you can find that, give it a try, I think you would enjoy it (well, you would probably enjoy about anything, but that one is a bit better to my taste than the regularly-available SA brew). --R On 6/7/2010 12:50 AM, Hendrik and Fay wrote: Sam Adams boston ale, produces a very nice drink.

Re: [MBZ] OT Beer review
If they take away whatever looks like trash, why are my clothes still here? Anyway, carrying glass around while travelling is a dicey thing, while we where at Binny's I remembered that the cheapskates at our Holiday Inn only provided us with plastic cups, so I asked the check out fella if it would be possible to get some proper beer glasses and he gave us a couple of nice Stella Artois (that is a Belgian health tonic, Wilton) glasses and I will give them to the man in the mountains, cause I can't lug around fragile stuff like that.

IIRC, Room Service brings you food and drink, Houskeeping/Maid Service brings clean sheets and takes away whatever looks like trash. I guess you should recap the collectible trash and store it in your luggage.

[MBZ] OT Beer review
mao asked me to write up my thoughts on a couple of brews we got at Binny's (never seen so many different beers in one place but this is the US after all, I said to Dan that I expected an isle of Bud, an isle of Coors, an isle of Miller and a few imported usuals like that energy drink from Holland). We got a couple of Founder brews, double trouble and old curmudgeon ale, plus a big bottle of something I can't remember the name of and roomservice took the bottle (although I would have loved to take it home with me for my collection but..). Anywho, the big bottle was nice and carried off it's high alcohol content (9.5%) well but the founders brews are too high in the alcohol content (9.4%) and have an unpleasant alcohole taste, well some might like that. However they are all competent brews but the founders need to take the alcohol down to 7.5%, to bring out the flavours of the beer. If I wanted to taste alcohol I would drink spirits but I find that mixing the founders stuff with Sam Adams boston ale, produces a very nice drink. Sam Adams being a very nice beer but not having quite the ale taste and needs a little something extra. Whack in a bit of founders and you have a nicely balance ale at 7-8% alcohol. Well that's my thoughts, buy a box of Sam Adams and a 4 pack of founders and then mix them together, perhaps not quite 1-1 but more at 2-1 or try it until you get to a brew that you're happy with. Lastly I have to apologize to the US nation for assuming that you nothing about beer, which I thought kinda strange, seeing you have had immigrants from all over the world, in fact Sam Adams Boston lager is probably one of the worlds great semi-mainstream beers for those who like a good, heavier beer. Ohh and at the ballgame today they had a good selection of beers available as well, better than the stuff they sell at Oz sporting events and yes the hot dogs where good too.
