I've had Carlsberg Elephant Beer. :shiver: A 6-pack of those will send you into high orbit, but by George it's a pain getting there. X| -- Run around in the radiation Run around in the acid rain, On a black, black planet

Cheap beer is our brain blaster of choice, something like Castle or Tafel Lager. It is a refined beer IMO, for actually enjoying. One of the very few beers I can say I actually like the taste.

Really? 3.5 liters of bull piss (Falcon Export) costs 88 SEK (~ 80 Rand) while 3.5 liters of Heineken costs 121 SEK (110 Rand). 3.5 liters 5.5% will make anyone pretty plasted (equates roughly to half a liter of 40% strong liquor). The difference is just 33 SEK/30 Rand which is acceptable - if you take the taste and the end result into account. :) Paul Watson wrote: It is a refined beer IMO, for actually enjoying. Mmmhmm!

Really!? What's the difference between wine and beer (other than everything). Or beer and liquer? I find it mind boggling that you can't buy strong beer while you can buy wine with +12% and vodka at +40%.

the NC law is really long. but, the 6% limit distinguishes "malt beverages" from other liquors. there are probably regulations that allow certian businesses to sell "malt beverages" but nothing stronger. i don't know what the real purpose of the law is, especially since a 45 minute drive to Virginia allows you to buy beer of any strength. in Utah, the limit is 3.2%. :( -c
