I think you're right, but for years it was advertised here by that label and it's stuck in my mind. Recent ads refer to it simply as Guinness, but it still tastes wonderful!:) "Please don't put cigarette butts in the urinal.

No, the American versions. I haven't tried the Czech beer yet. Is it anything like Pilsner Urquell? BW "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific." - Lily Tomlin

The best: Almost every Belgian beer like Duvel, Westmalle, Orval, Hoegaarden, ...;P;P;P The worst: Dutch beer like Heineken. X| Franky.
Heineken is a fine lager. Personally I think it's the best. I like how it tastes before and after I've swallowed the beer. It's a win-win beer. :) However, I'd like to point out that I haven't had any Belgian beers so far, so I can't dispute your claim. :) -- Run around in the radiation Run around in the acid rain, On a black, black planet

It does rock. A Heineken goes well to food, to a hockey game, on the balcony a hot summer day. And it works quite well as a brain blaster device. ;) -- Run around in the radiation Run around in the acid rain, On a black, black planet

You can virtually taste it here: http://www.duvel.be[^] Be warned: it's a lot stronger than Heineken.
Strong beer generally tastes bad ;P IMO, anything above 5.5% is a failure. I've had one good strong beer (some Danish ale) so far. -- Run around in the radiation Run around in the acid rain, On a black, black planet
