But there's no such thing as...wait a minute...huh?  Wacko

My wife's parents are anti-alcohol.  I'd have nowhere to store any beer to keep it cold.

Since I was at the hospital to visit my new niece, I stopped by Harris Teeter (the upscale grocer in town) to check out their beer selection.  They're renovating and OH MY WHAT IS THIS

Five huge walls of nothing but beer.  I was a kid in the proverbial candy store. 

I got this:

And picked up this for tonight's "festivities":

Picked up a case of lambic beer for our friend who's coming to visit (very very belated wedding gift I guess!)
While there picked up a bottle of lambic beer for myself. Can't wait! sh*t is amazingly delicious.

Also not beer but picked up some woodchuck ciders, something light and refreshing to contrast the yuengling.
Pretty much it's gonna be some good beer days coming up.

Agreed - that one's a stunner

Like that? You'll love this:



Rodenbach Grand Cru (a rarity at only 6.5%, too)

In all honestly I haven't tried Old. But it's a British styled ale and the tagline is 'Surprisingly Refreshing' LOL

No thanks Tongue

Right now, almost always these:
Also, splurged and grabbed a case of these today:
Although I'm incredibly disappointed. It tastes exactly like Boag's Premium, but watered down. Really lame. Expensive, too.

The only half decent beer I could get in Sydney (apart from ice cold Guinness )

haha no

There's plenty of great beer in sydney.

I'm sure you'd have liked this place - http://www.lordnelsonbrewery.com/ Lots of British style beers. And they do pints. I'm sure they'd even serve it warm for you if you asked politely Wink

Ah - I'd forgotten the Lord Nelson (just up the hill from Darling Harbour, I seem to remember ); that was a decent place - there was somewhere in Paddington too we used to go on Paddo Market day...
