That being said, a Vic Bitter or two can hit the spot. James Boag's is pretty good stuff - not that I've had a great huge amount of brews from down under, mind you. Wow! A connoisseur. Yeah, I quite like a Boags on occasions. Well, I'll tell you what. The first time (and sadly, the last time) I ever had a boags was from a gourmet store (which closed soon after) near my house. Now, I like it when beers taste "clean"; that is, the underlying taste behind the alcohol is either nonexistant, or very refreshing. Upon tasting a Boags, I was struck by how much like pure, clean springwater that taste was. I was in heaven. Yeah, I think the Tassie water has a lot to do with that. Now of course I can't find it anywhere in the states. Probably for the best; that lone bottle cost me about $5 USD! This mob (among others I'm sure) will sell you some and ship it to you, but you'd better be prepared for some hefty P&H; http://www.quinndirect.com.au/beer/b...ntry=australia Here's the brewers site; www.boags.com.au I'm also fond of Banks, from Barbados. A delicious lager. Haven't heard of that one. Cheers, Phil -- Pfft...english! Who needs that? I'm never going to England. Homer J. Simpson Ah yes, Banks beer. I remember it well from my two-week vacation in Barbados many a year ago. Pretty good beer and very reasonably priced. My brothers and I would go through a case or so a night after scuba diving all day. Barbados also produces some of the best rum made - Mount Gay. Amen. MG and Tonic is the quintessential summer drink. Cheers...Craig O M http://www.vabene.net --- I'm not dumb.
