Oldies but goodies
I am originally form St. Louis Mo, home of Anheuser Busch and the dynasty of the Cardinals, so of course i was introduced to the beauty of beer very early with Budweiser. I love that stuff and always will. I used to say, if i was stuck on an deserted isle with every beer in the world except for bud, i would die of thirst. But, I regress that statement. There are alot of very good American Beers that are easily found, and i guess that is where you find what your taste is, by going through all of these, be it a house party, a camping trip, a ball game, however you do it you are forced to try a strange beer.
Rackem Billiards

this is the place I have decided to start my search for my one true love in the world of ale. located in laid back down town cape coral florida, rackem billiards co. is a very cool dark pool hall with a warm, pub feel. Andy Grey, Owner and Operator, is a very interesting guy with a ton of great stories and a sense of humor that will make you feel very welcome and at home. I will stand by this claim that andy's pub is THE place for a Guiness Draft due to the precise specifications of line lengths and keg placement in the cooler. Stop by and check out their great selection of imports and micro brews on draft and in bottles. I have a loong way to go before i say I've had every beer in the place!
new beers to try.. 1st beer...Warsteiner Octoberfest..smooth pale ale; a little flat, but not bitter at all. would go great with food, or in Das Boot. Get it while it lasts. def. better cold. 1 thumbs up.
2nd beer..Lowenbrau Original...imported form Munich..Very nice crisp taste, but mellow. good at room temp or cold! like a pbr, but with a nice apple-ish scent if drank from a pint glass. 2 tumbs up
3rd beer...Shiner Bock amber beer, crisp non fruity smell, very dry taste almost a tad bitter but in a good way. suprisingly light for the color. def a sipping beer at cold temp. 1 thumb
4th beer... Negra Modelo- from mexico...a darker pale ale...awesome smooth taste, bit fruity maybe apricot, but excellent, and a cool bottle to boot. 2 thumbs
5th beer... Carlsberg, from denmark. at this point i was getting a tad goofy, mixing all of the different tatses, but i think if i started with this beer I would say the same hting, it tasted shitty. straight up. I hate bitter skunky tatsing beer (heineken prime example). and it was just that, a shitty flat tasting heineken maybe a bit smoother becuase of the flat taste. 2 thumbs down. but hey if you liek heineken try it out!all for now, fear the beer
