I am a blue-collar-type drinker. Good, simple beer. I drink Straubs, though if you're not in central PA, you'll have a hard time finding it.

It can't be shipped very far, because it has no preservatives (also, no rice or added sugar). If it weren't for the corn they add to the mix, it would comply with the Reinheitsgebot.

yeah, that corn serves the same purpose as rice, BTW.

But to be honest, the popular German beers here (St Pauli Girl, Becks) that follow the reinheitsgebot are not very good. I'd rather drink US industrial beer.

Straubs

Drink it fast......... it goes flat faster than a crumby rimmed tire after making contact with a sharp cobblestoned curb in Squirrel Hill.

Happy anniversary (in days).
