Banning a member

I haven’t been to Canada in 20 years, last time I went there was to go scuba diving at Tobemorie, and back, then the Royal mounted Police would take you to jail for just having a piece of coal off the bottom of the lake

Never been to Canada. Don't trust them. Nobody is that nice. They are like Eddie Haskell nice. Oh sure, they have their sexy accent with oot in a boot. Next thing you know, wham, Snidley Whiplash has you strapped to a train track like a 2 dollar hog on it's way to market.

Love a good Porter or Stout and some Ales. < this looks a little light for me.
I like a good Oktoberfest set up, a darker beer, a little crisp fall football.

Try this if you can find it.

It’s interesting how tastes change over time, or at least mine did. Ten years ago I only liked darker ales or porters. My tastes have changed and now I prefer wheat or lighter ales. My favorite style is a farmhouse (cream) ale. But those are hard to find. The best I have tasted is called Spotted Cow, but it’s only sold in Wisconsin.

Spotted Cow. Sure, I've had those. A little tricky since when we lived there my wife worked for Miller. We weren't supposed to drink other companies' brands. Fortunately, Miller owns Leienenkugel, so I had lots of options.

Local Brew is only 530 years in production...

As a former president said, a lot of things can be worked out over a beer.

Today I was in town and decided to stop at a Total Wine Store (Walmart of liquor stores). I happened to see a German Hefeweizen that was named one of the 10 best beers of the world at an international beer festival, so I had to buy it. It is made by the oldest brewery in the world (1040). I don’t usually buy European beers but I have to admit this is really tasty. Now I’m spoiled and the beer isn’t cheap.View attachment 849176

I do love those also. We had a great local brewery that made really good Belgian beers, but sadly they went away during covid. It was called Abbey Brewing Company and was owned by a local monastery. They made a wheat, Belgian ale and trippel beer. They opened a tasting room in Albuquerque downtown and the bartenders were actual monks who rotated days. Such a good beer, but only sold in state. You can still buy those beers in small batches, but only at the monastery, no longer in stores.

you can get trippel in the states. My daughter plays college field hockey with some Belgian players and they stayed at our house over the holidays last 3 years. As a thanks, the parents sent me Belgian beer. It came from a distributor in the states. I think it was in Illinois???

Like some domestic beers, some imports only show up in certain areas. I can get some Tripel here, just not that one that I really liked. Other than IPA, I like lots of styles. Depends on the situation. When I was young it was all about quantity/value. Now I'd prefer to have one beer with character.

Awesome. So we're agreed, no banning women. We'll, at least not as a group. I guess it's possible for specific women to be banned if they are like he who shall not be named.

Dad has really bad hearing (service related). He just turns the aids off when he doesn't want to be bothered. Kind of his own ignore button.
