I have a mini fridge in my studio that only has two shelves. Thanks to a great friend, the bottom shelf is PACKED with beer. Half of it is Sierra Nevada too

there's a show on the BBC call "Oz and James Drink to Britian." the first few episodes they talked about beer. the last episode they were at the guiness factory. btw, that's James May from top gear for all the TG fans.

I'll have to look it up on Hulu. There's also a show called Three Sheets that is fun to watch. There is also a drinking game associated with it when you watch it, but you have to go to the shows website for info on that.

I loved 3 sheets. Too bad there's no more MOJO channel =/

We even had a Plepeus (sp?) look alike.

16 percent or 16 proof?

I don't think I've ever seen an "ALE" nearly that high.

my brother brought some of that home with him a couple weeks ago.

If you like hops you'll love it. It's friggin hearty. And 3 of them will definitely put you back. Pretty strong.
