Sorry about that. Actually, tell us more about Russian beer. Is it like German?, English?, US? beer? -Or Swedish? And, Do they serve it hot or cold? Thought of the day: Can you mention anybody who has written anything, painted anything, conquered anything, who had not from time to time looked for 'spiritual re-enforcement'? (Shaw must be the exception that proves the rule) (Afterthought: No, not quite: Montgomery did not drink either, did he? - but generally the rule still seems to stand.) Pedantic Post Script: Adding Vodka to tap water (or water taken from the local lake) will *not* kill all the germs. Man Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 1:27:26 AM   You know SCott I lived and worked in Italy for about 6 months and I never paid any attention to the wine I drank, which i drank liberaly with most meals there. I rarely ate in what would be considered an upscale restaraunt by American standards. I ate with the locals and I never had a bad meal or bottle of wine. That is where I learned to love Italian food. THey do have some good beer there too! Now as to Coopers Sparkling Ale. It is a cloudy beer due to the sediment that you will see in the bottle. I drink it in a glass only. This way I can mix the sediment into the beer to get a full flavour. This probably where you get that yeast taste that you dont like.......Ah yes.....start the night out right.... drink two ice cold with a good cigar on a warm Saturday night, while watching the last light of the day!! Sorry I am not much help with good wine,....I think I remember some bad bottles I've had though. LOL scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 10:03:34 AM   Man, I have never been to Italy, but a few friends of mine have commented that you can't equate wine in Italy with any other country. It just doesn't fit the mold. For the most part, every village has their own wine, and even their own strain of grape. There are some major vinyards, but by far, you can count on a different experience everywhere you go. Now, I'm getting into a history most might not appreciate, but wine drinking in America did not really take off unil the increase of Italian immigration in the late 19th and early 20th century. Thomas Jefferson himself was wine drinker and did his best to bring wine to America to no great success. So, for those American's that enjoy wine, we can mostly thank the Italian influence. If you don't mind, what where you doing in Italy? Back to Cooper's, yes I had stirred mine up in a glass as well. When I tried my first from the bottle, I also looked up the history of that beer on the web, which basically recounted what you just stated. Again, it's a good beer. I just include it in my favorites. Thanks for sharing, Man. scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 10:04:36 AM   Err, "don't include" eeyore Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 11:48:57 AM   Re. Wine since this beer thread seems to include wine a bit of trivia you can confirm or deny: Some years ago some fungus (?) killed a strand of grape in France totally. So they 'imported' the vine again from California where some French immigrant had planted it. So, technically, one of the wines in France (I do not remember which one) is - in a way - based on a Californian vine. It's a strange world... eeyore Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 11:48:57 AM   Re.

Don't care too much for american beer either and I know I'll get bashed for saying this but, Give me a bottle of Mexican piss water with a slice of lime and some lime juice and I'm a happy camper! scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:19:12 PM   No arguments, Dale. I happen to like Dos Equis lager at the moment. Dale E Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:21:21 PM   Never tried but always open to try something new. You use any additives? scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:22:40 PM   You can use a slice of lime, but I prefer mine as is (cold and frosty!) Mmmmm... beer slushy scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:32:21 PM   Now that I think about it, a cold Dos Equis with some chips and salsa sounds very tempting! Ditto Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:35:11 PM   I like 2 X's, but I prefer 3. Did I just say that out loud. Oops. Dale E Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:40:26 PM   Ditto- I tried to set you up with a XXX in a different thread. Remember? Her name is Ludmilla! Ditto Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/16/2004 3:43:11 PM   From the description, she and I would be a 3-some. scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/24/2004 3:51:37 PM   Okay, technically, this should be in a humor subject, but close enough: "Bless this grain, for which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more DIVINE means of consumption. Let us give praise to our Maker, and glory to His bounty, by learning about.... BEER!" --Micheal McShane as "Friar Tuck" in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves Ditto Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/28/2004 11:04:24 AM   Our lager, Which art in barrels, Hallowed be thy drink, Thy will be drunk, (I will be drunk), At home as I am in the tavern. Give us this day our foamy head, And forgive us our spillages, As we forgive those who spill against us, and lead us not to incarceration, But deliver us from hangovers. For thine is the beer, The bitter and the lager, Forever and ever, Barmen. scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 6/28/2004 11:06:47 AM   LOL@Ditto Your Reply: Your name:   New Registration Password:   Forgot password?   refresh Code:   Russian brides > Main Forum > Beers of the world and the FSU
