After a ride like that, I wouldn't care (as long as it wasn't American
beer).

I'm not sure what kind of beer he drank, but if the name gets out,
it's going to be the recovery drink of choice after yesterday! ;-)

It wasn't beer but Amstel, according to Belgian TV

Don't know about Floyd, but I have heard that Lance Armstrong (like a
lot of Texans) prefers Shiner Bock, while Levi Leipheimer (like a lot
of Californians) prefers Sierra Nevada. I must say I have much more
respect for Levi's choice.

There are some very good beers made in the U.S., despite what Aussies
say about them. And there are some ****-poor beers made too, sorta like
Fosters.

Aussies don't have any room to talk. Their beer sucks as bad as
mainstream American beer and I sure as hell couldn't find any microbrews
the last time I was there.

Why, hasn't it always been so?

Shiner Bock ain't no Bock. Get yerself a DoppelBock or a real German
Bock and a Shiner and side-by-side 'em.

Shiner is cheap mass-produced-tasting beer labeled Bock that sure ain't
no Bock.

D'ohBoy, who, if he knows anything, knows beer.

Shiner "Bock" is reported (by Shiner) to be the #4 best-seller by some
category or another in the USA. This is good as it means it's more
likely the S-N shelf still has some Pale on it when I get there, which
is not always the case (ahem) here deep in the heart of Tejas.

Let's put it this way: when you go to the Shiner Hospitality Room,
you'll probably drink the Bock (""). Available year 'round.

Amazing, both Shiner and S-N start out with, like, water... --D-y
