Beer drinking is a world of discovery

You might think that after countless 12-ounce curls and surely several man-years devoted to drinking and writing about beer, I'd have little memory of quaffing particular brews, or the circumstances surrounding said quaffing.

what is really refreshing this summer is a new awareness in the US and Europe of the joys of micro-brewed ale. Even in the Haute-Loire region of France, long known for its wine, excellent local beers are now sold in country markets alongside goat cheese and hognoses. In southern England , Fullers London Pride still reigns supreme, but the old (traditional steam engine-driven) Hook Norton Brewery in rural Oxfordshire turns out the favorite for aficionados. In Pleasantville, NY. the Captain Lawrence brewery is a watering hole for a growing gathering of local fans, and their beer is simply fabulous... J

sounds like one of those beardy real-ale people. Probably has tweedy clothes and likes folk-dancing as well. The only thing he will discover is getting the runs after drinking 20 pints of Old Badger's Diarrhea Mixture, and what the inside of police cells look like.

partly right Mr Giblets... am a fiddler, 71 years old, and have seen the inside of police cells and compounds in a few spots (eg Iran, Singapore..) but I do know better than to drink more than 19 pints of Old Badger at any one sitting...
