This is another beer that I enjoy, and it's from my hometown too Big smile

I believe the brewery uses recipes from 1407 and 1501 in order to recreate the traditional beer from Haarlem (though they don't use water from the city canals anymore I suppose Tongue).

So much beer...so few hours after twelve noon.  Embarrassed

You and I should really get together some time.  LOL

I've seen McEwan's sold here, but I've never bought it.

I had my last Newcastle last night with a spicy sirloin and boiled potatoes.  Approve

Yeah, Tsingtao is as smooth as a good Santana album. John Smith's is reminiscent of Newcastle Brown (Or as the folk where I stay have a tendancy to call it, 'Nookie Broon'!) There's another one that's quite good over here actually, called Mc Ewan's Export, which is slightly rougher than the other two.

I have never had the pleasure of a John Smith's Extra Smooth, but I have had the Chinese Tsingtao (pronounced "Ching-Dow," by the way Geek), which as I recall, was quite good.

Leffe Bruin is my favourite, but I've recently discovered McChouffe which is equally nice. Just about any Belgian beer actually. Super Bock and Sagres are nice Portuguese beers.
