we don't (or didn't) really get a lot of southern beers like courage up in the north but i do know what an IPA is like. My favourite pub has it's own brewery and making a magnificent IPA along with many othersMarble Arch[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=4418\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
We found an interesting article (with Plakias and Myrthos in it) about Greek beers.We are going to try them out any way next time in Greece as we go for local drinks and dishes anyhow. Beachcombers[attachment=165:attachment][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=4407\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]

Beachcombers[attachment=165:attachment][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=4407\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]I wrote the article in Pints West but unfortunately it is out of date. The bar in Myrthios has removed Craft beer from the menu and the Sky Restaurant in Rethimnon have stopped because the price was raised such that they would need to charge over six euros for a glass. However it is still available fairly widely in Athens and is good quality although expensive. I can recommend the bar next to the pet shop in the Town Hall Square about 100 metres from Omonia and a small bar on the edge of Iroon Square near Monasitaki.

Every december norwegian breweries make christmas beer. Nice, dark and malty, and according to tradition supposed to go well with fatty foods and Aqua Vita (akevitt).
aqua vita is a spirit/liquer isn't it Tom?
Quoteaqua vita is a spirit/liquer isn't it Tom?Yes, from Latin = Water of life. The Norwegian variety "Akevitt" is made from potatoes, spiced with caraway seeds and stored in oak casks onboard ships that sail between Norway and Australia. Every cask is suposed to cross the equator at least twice. It acquires a nice golden colour. Many Norwegians have a shot or two with their christmas eve dinner. The bottle should be stored in the freezer for 12 hours before it is served, and drunk before the temperature rises to 0 C. Do not ask...... it is just tradition.[attachment=269:attachment]Tom[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=4941\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
