This seems true for American beers, but European brew is a different story. Carlsberg makes a high-powerd ale called Elephant that is quite good, but expensive. Back in my wasted youth on the rare occasions we could afford it, we'd "pick up a herd" and "get stampeded". There also used to be a beer called Giraffe that was excellent, but I haven't seen it in years. There was aplce in Cleveland called the Harbor Inn that had like 150 beers. I don't think I've seen Giraffe anywhere else. Finally, there's an amazing beer called Celebrator that has a goat on the label, and every bottle has a little plstic goat tied to the bottle neck with red string. Also very expensive (about $14 for six here in Chicago), but superb. |
