Tips on healthy beer drinking !

Probably won't have it but Saku, an Estonian beer, is pretty good.

I'm also fond of the Czech beer variety, brands such as Velkopopovicky (difficult to say after you've had a few), Staropramen and Krusoviche. Porters are usually good too.

Saku is pretty good, but the downside is that smaller shops dont usually sell it.

You might want to look for a bit of French...Stella Artois

About Hoegaarden...I remember when I went from Holland to France on a bus and in France the cops took me along with some others to a random check. The cop asked if I had any drugs on me and I said I have one beer, Hoegaarden which I did have. The cop started to praise the taste of it, "Oh Hoegaarden, it's so sweet and lemony! Wise choice!" I don't think he was a very good drug cop.

Be careful if you order a Finnish beer called Lapin Kulta though. It comes from Lapland (or at least used to before they closed the brewery up north).

Well, I'll look for 'em anyway - I shop at a veritable local legend called Jungle Jim's and I've never yet looked for anything that they didn't have. If it's not in this place, nobody around here has it!

But right now I will have to be satisfied with a celebratory Beck's, cuz I just completed my first successful mission and sank the bloody Courageous.* And no I am not stopping at half a bottle for each!

*Just don't ask me how many times I had to try it before I got it right.
