Beer is proof that God Loves us.

A good beer is one that you like.

Occasionally, I enjoy a Belgian Farmhouse Ale, a Lambic with the special notes of wild yeast strains.

Most Americans only enjoy the sweet sugary lambics like Lindemans Framboise or Kriek. I also enjoy the complex sours at the other end of the spectrum, my favorite being La Cantillon. These beers are like fine wine getting better with age.

I would love to taste the old Egyptian beer recipe.

I like saisons. But some of the lambics I have tried have an aftertaste this is reminiscent of a post puke. No thanks on those.

Oddly enough, it doesn't surprise me about a 4500 year old yeast producing something like a gose.

Since alcohol doesn't mix with medicines, I finally found a non-alco beer with a desirable flavor: Asahi dry 0%. But I don't say everyone should choose it, since I'm not a fascist.

Before I stopped drinking alcohol I used to drink Belgian Ales, I loved the taste. Leffe was my favorite.I still have the glass with Their logo on it

I didn’t drink it on a regular basis, just as a treat once in a while. That stuff was expensive, but it sure was good….
