WALKER1313 Posted July 24, 2022 #51 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Quantity has become the measure of good beer? When I was under 25 maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the name of the St Kitts beer if you can recall? (I couldn't) Carib is the name of the beer. We actually took a tour through the brewery on another time we stopped in St. Kitts. Free samples are always good! I also must have the local beer at each port. I try to carefully pull off the label from a bottle for a souvenir. Or if that doesn’t work, ask if I can have a coaster if that brand is on the coasters the bar is using. Have never been told no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ret MP Posted July 24, 2022 #53 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I once tried a beer in Belize, it was highly recommended by the pilot of the tender we had to take to the port. It was also recommended by a few other locals. So, at the first bar I came to, I ordered it. I almost threw-up right then and there. Man it was bad and it wasn't even Cold, maybe cool at best. I just can't remember the name of it. Which only goes to show, at least for me, different cultures/different tastes. I'm terribly glad I've got my culture!

I have a few really good friends who went to Mizzou in the early-to-mid 80's. I still have these from a 1988 (I think) trip from KC to a football game in Columbia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the only measure, but a factor.... 🙂 🙂 Besides, premium beer is in the eyes of the beholder. I'm old enough to remember when Michelob and Miller High Life were considered premium beers and cost more than others. Now they are cheap bargain basement beers. (Especially Miller) "I like beer. It makes me a jolly good fellow" (Tom T. Hall) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a requirement to enter the business school. Her role was to weed out the applicants.😉 She was also the only native American instructor to teach that class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
