Although I can concur on your previously stated opinion regarding personal
tastes in beer, and I'll admit, as I have in the past, that I have not
sampled more than the commercial variety offered by your nation.... but,
I'll have to disagree with your premise on alcohol content. I normally drink
a beer that is 7.5% alcohol. It's a fine tasting brew and has a nice
slightly bitter after taste. Now I don't consider a beer to be strong unless
it approaches 9 %. The typical 4.5% offered by American beers is not
considered an alcoholic beverage up here... it's barely palatable if served
very cold and you can consume it all day in great quantities without
suffering any intoxication.

The true test of a beer is if it is still enjoyable at room temperature. I
don't personally like Ice cold beer unless it's a very hot day.

My current alcohol tolerance as tested by the local constabulary with a
breathalyzer is below the 0.5 PPM reading after 8 of my usual brews within
4 hours.

When I want to get drunk... I really have to turn to 151 proof rum or the
Alcool offered in Quebec that clocks in at 96%

More alcohol in beer is definitely not better. If I
want a bunch of alcohol, I'll drink Jack Black on
the rocks.

When I drink beer, I want to be able to drink a whole
bunch of beer without getting drunk nor do I want to
taste a bunch of heavy alcohol which ruins the fine
taste of hops and barley and malt.

Beer over five percent alcohol is not real beer at all
in this sailor's opinion. It is an alcoholic's idea of beer.

Well, there you go. In a climate where it tops 100 regularly for 3
months out the year, you'd probably acquire a taste for beers you
currently disdain. Who knows, you might even learn to like iced tea.

Is "151" the number of functioning brain cells?

I notice a bit of frustrated cruelty in your posts, Mr King.

Life must be hard for you lately as you seem to use this group
to attempt to harass other people in a vain attempt to lessen
the blow life has dealt you.

You are becoming more and more like Gaynz in your
frustrated bitterness towards those who enjoy life,
notwithstanding your pretending be more interested in the
opposite sex. Perhaps coming out of the closet would
help.

May I suggest therapy?
