After the Great Britain Beer Festival, in London, all the brewery presidents decided to go out for a beer.
The guy from Corona sits down and says, "Hey Senor, I would like the world's best beer, a Corona." The bartender dusts off a bottle from the shelf and gives it to him.
The guy from Budweiser says, "I'd like the best beer in the world, give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser." The bartender gives him one.
The guy from Coors says, "I'd like the only beer made with Rocky Mountain spring water, give me a Coors." He gets it.
The guy from Guinness sits down and says, "Give me a Coke." The bartender is a little taken aback, but gives him what he ordered.
The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask "Why aren't you drinking a Guinness?" and the Guinness president replies, "Well, I figured if you guys aren't drinking beer, neither would I."

Yeah! Good one, Dave!  Btw, you sound like a man who enjoys a good dark ale. And so, have you ever tried this?  Ya see, unlike Guinness which tastes best at room temperature(at least that's what I've always found to be the case), this New Belgium 1554 tastes great either chilled or at 72F!!! (...yep, it's by far my favorite beer nowadays!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

LOL....... that is good man. Its hard to beat a Guinness.

If any of you ever get to SE Washington State you must go to Ice Harbor Brewery. Some of the best microbrews around. Call when you come through and we'll go drink some with you.

There are sooooo many excellent micro breweries around these days which reminds me... has anyone seen the 2009 documentary, "Beer Wars?" It's pretty darned interesting (and revealing).

I found it in WA the last year I lived there.
I asked the guy "Where did you get that?" the response was "the store dough,," he did not realize how happy that made me. but as stated, the Henry's was a good sub!

Yuengling bock around here, Also Genesse Bock. Drinking Weyerbocker Hops infusion right now.
An American, an Englishman & an Irishman go out for a beer. When served their drinks each notices a fly in the beer. The American slams his beer fly & all. The Englishman picks out the fly & quaffs his beer. The Irishman picks out the fly & yells at "NOW SPIT IT OUT YOU BASTID"
"Got the wind in my face the road goes on for miles...."
