Re: I've had one or two nice American beers snoopcester Send a noteboard - 29/01/2010 01:22:44 PM
From some small brewerys. I can't remember the names however.

And just in case people think I'm picking on American brewing I should have added Harp (a rather dreadful Irish larger) to the list of stuff to avoid


They still make Harp?
Wow.

But you are right about the small breweries in the US - the large ones seem to all make alcoholic bilge water but the small breweries are pretty good.
