I don't like the thicker beer, and if I were in Britain, I wouldn't do well with the warm beer either.
Germany, their thick beer. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

I get a real kick out of wine snobs ...
After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding this to my posts for the next week.

Now, now.
Even wine snobs can show solidarity with France.

This is interesting. As a beer brewer myself, I’m wondering how truly small breweries can comply with this realistically. Small batch brewing is very subjective, and starting and ending gravities can vary widely, which would result in different carbohydrate levels and alcohol content from batch to batch. It’s not really an exact science. Large breweries have the ability to blend to get the profiles they want. Smaller breweries don’t have that capability.

Also, on-premise brewing for brew pub chains over with over 20 locations make this almost impossible. Each location brews their own on small systems. There’s no way possible they can post calorie content continuously for each batch and run an efficient operation.

It's interesting the variety of beer products out there and what we settle on. Family, peers, good advertising, one or more of these caught us at just the right time and we're destined to live with the choice.

I gravitated toward lite beers in my teens.

Too late now... LOL

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

LOL..., it probably is too close to water, but it's in my system now and there's no denying my preference.

Carlsberg and Sam Adams are full on beers, but not at all heavy.

I'm vaguely familiar with the consistency of Sam Adams.

Carlsberg probably fits in the same category, since it's also your favorite.

Even if I have chosen the kiddy table beer, it's good to see others find a brew they like. Sounds good to me.

Now I could get in a bundle of trouble here, but I think it's safe to say that beyond a few years, most women think their husbands are cheap dates.

When I was eighteen, we could make beer runs to Kansas from Missouri for 3 2 beer. It was 3.2%. We were glad to have it. We bought it in quart bottles.

Nice!

Just post higher calorie counts. They won’t bust you for overstating.
