Or, as my late father in law, used to say about most American beer, when compared to Canadian beer, 50 years ago: "Put it back in the horse" That sorta what you meant, George? Cheers, Doug in BC who do not drink beer of any kind after getting deathly ill from a skunky draft eons ago whilst still a teener!

You have on one end the incredibly wonderful Point Special, and ancillary types, from the pipeline from heaven in Steven's Point, Wisconsin, all the way down the scale to a heinous substance that besmirches the name of that great state, Wisconsin Club. That "beer" made by the Huber Brewing Company (at my last recollection) is the only beer that gave me indigestion, and that was from a SINGLE can. It wasn't skunked, no my friends, it was just B A D. I'd rather walk a mile to drink *from* a camel than to ever drink Wisconsin Club again.
