Lagunitas was a new one on me, Mike.
They look like some fun people making interesting beer.

Richard, I have no idea what's going on here at this point.
I think there's at least one local spot that micro-brews some stuff on premises.

It's funny how wherever you go the locals never seem to think very highly of old
established brands in their area, even though people from out of town can show
up and think it's terrific beer.  (And would never refer to it as "Feline Output"!)  :D

We only get the Lagunitas IPA over here - I'd describe it as a nice pint, but it's more of a nice bit of a pint as you American's insist on using tiddly little bottles ;)

Shepherd Neame produce some decent beer but I'm not keen on their big sellers - MasterBrew and Spitfire - very hoppy but without any complexity. They do a good Autumn beer called Late Red, We had another big brewery - George Rigden's that became part of the Fremlin's group, but then Whitbread bought them out and very quickly closed the brewery (Whitbread did this on a national scale - buying up other companies for a few years then deciding to pull out of brewing).

I always thought PBR was nicely 'dry' and better than many people give it credit for.
Granted, it's one of our classic American collection of bottled beverages which cause
people world-wide to exclaim "So those Yanks really call this stuff beer?"  
But I wouldn't turn one down, unlike a few other brands I know.  ( :

Ed, you're absolutely right, and it was only a week or so ago I found that out.
I've always had the cans.  Don't have a clue about the bottles.  But I tried one
on tap and it wasn't awful but it just wasn't the same.

I don't know what Richard's talking about.  Our US bottles are reasonably sized. ( :
