And I'm still not sure the SuperBike thing is even in English. My personal theory is that we have drifted back to 1975 somehow.<br />Still, here's a beer the USAans can be proud of:<br />http://legendsofbeer.wordpress.com/2009/01/26/beer-review-celis-white/bramblejamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11453752693542723307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-47384941411936314902010-07-16T08:09:20.719+01:002010-07-16T08:09:20.719+01:00Hey, my kind of hijack!

Nothing quite like it for a summer drink.Dru Marlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03697874363783821382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-76886931166707429322010-07-16T00:23:38.457+01:002010-07-16T00:23:38.457+01:00@ Jenny

There are some smaller breweries that make some pretty good beer, but please don't ever offer me a fruit flavored beer. Sam Adams makes some excellent beers. <br /><br />Melissa XXMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600684740584460891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-14415065965223664212010-07-15T15:59:55.503+01:002010-07-15T15:59:55.503+01:00Sorry for the hijack Dru, but Melissa I'd like...Sorry for the hijack Dru, but Melissa I'd like to take issue with that assertion, there are some fantastic and truly world-beating beers made and drunk on your continent. They just aren't drunk by many of you. Germans go on about the rheinheitsgebot as some amazing standard but in fact it's held us Europeans back, you lot are the innovators.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-28493786675824918172010-07-15T15:42:53.716+01:002010-07-15T15:42:53.716+01:00People who want to drink a lot of beer, but don...People who want to drink a lot of beer, but don't want all the calories and carbs, drink light beer. Miller Lite has a bitter hop flavor for those who like a Pilsner style beer, but no body at all. Once it passes the pallet, the taste is gone, but very few American beers, light or regular are as good as what you have. Everybody in the world makes better beer than Americans do. <br /><br />Melissa XXMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600684740584460891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-87903110205157931452010-07-15T14:37:19.375+01:002010-07-15T14:37:19.375+01:00It's a rather challenging job, of course.

It takes years... well, minutes of rigorous training to hold a brolly over some sweaty erk on a bike rather than say "get your own ruddy brolly".... <br /><br />...but yes, Jenny, as you point out, SuperBike do not speak for Yamaha, who are apparently displeased at the spin that SB have put on this story. Still, perish the thort that they should admit they're being daft and change what they've written, even if it does leave them with egg on their face....<br /><br />thanks for the link, Melissa. Great ads, aren't they? Nothing like a bit of enforcement of gender stereotyping. Do Americans really think that Miller Lite is worth drinking? It's kind of like flavoured water, as I recall. And not nicely flavoured either.Dru Marlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03697874363783821382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448752251053894818.post-89627833947824834902010-07-15T14:24:04.864+01:002010-07-15T14:24:04.864+01:00Well - I'm not a bloke/transsexual/transgender...Well - I'm not a bloke/transsexual/transgender type but I AM a size 20 in my 50s.
