I find it ok at best really. <br />Good old Abita Turbo Dog is mighty tasty. It is a Louisiana product and I might be biased a bit.<br /><br />I recently tried a "Piraat" from Belgium and after getting past the yeastiness and sweetness, I found it pretty good.Bartender Cabbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623813045706584212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59324506101124457.post-46816927736018652362012-02-01T18:21:31.357-08:002012-02-01T18:21:31.357-08:00Excellent, Findalis.

Young men stopped marrying the girls they got pregnant after they no longer could get hired at a job that would support the family.<br /><br />After that, yes, having a child was the ticket to a check, and the men became parasites who moved in with the girls. I've heard a few of these guys on the buses and hanging out at bus stops.<br /><br />It all started when they stopped producing the beer. Whether it was quality beer, I don't know, because I don't drink the stuff. I have to take Gary's word for it. This is his field of expertise. But Conway Twitty used to sing about "red necks, white socks and blue ribbon beer," so SOME patriotic down home Americans must have been guzzling the stuff.Siarlys Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15083839117838391267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59324506101124457.post-61957466731466577382012-02-01T13:09:03.518-08:002012-02-01T13:09:03.518-08:00@ Siarlys

Look at the cities with high unemployment, high welfare levels and you will find high teen pregnancy and high single parent households.<br /><br />Could it be that the only way you can get government aid is to be a single parent? And why work when your neighbor on welfare receives free rent, free food, free utilities <b>AND</b> has all the luxuries that you have to scrape and struggle to get? To many young people it is better to get the free money than to work.Findalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02881549378886491540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59324506101124457.post-29981129688649347792012-02-01T12:11:27.816-08:002012-02-01T12:11:27.816-08:00Manster,

No beer is made in Milwaukee any more, except a few bottles for tourists at the Miller Museum.<br /><br />Since Milwaukee stopped brewing beer, teen pregnancy and single-family parenting have grown by leaps and bounds.

I once spent a night in Brussels sampling the beer. Too strong for my taste. Stella Artois in Belgium is ok but not as good as German beer.<br /><br />PS: I did not blow it with Lance. Lance blew it with me.

Our "house beer" is "Veltins" which is a pils and has a nice, clean taste. Every time we go to Erlangen we bring back a couple of cases of Kitzmann, which is still my favorite beer, though I am not a big beer drinker, prefering California style red wine. We were in Belgium a few weeks ago and the beer there was excellent. Since you blew it with Lance you won't get to taste some of his excellent home brewed beer, schade..... <br />Prost.Ingridnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-59324506101124457.post-55077393110109663202012-01-31T19:37:28.309-08:002012-01-31T19:37:28.309-08:00I'll drink to that!!!
