Shamelessly Off Topic: La Rossa Doppio Malto from Trader Joe's -
really good stuff.

What beers do you guys recommend?

Michael

Kilkenny
Cafferys
Sweetheart (Tennent's, low alc)
Chimay, blue label

We went out to the Bell Tower on Polk street [1] last night, an
after-work thing. It's a real dive in a bad neighborhood, and the food
is fabulous. The little coasters said CHIMAY so, on your advice, we
got one. It's red and yummy. I'm not sure if it was the blue label...
the lighting was bad.

[1] There's a region of San Francisco where all the streets are named
for Bad Presidents: Polk, Jackson, Buchanan, Filmore, Hayes. There's a
Bush street, too.


You probably got the red label. Blue label is dark and, IMO, tastier.
I think the alcohol content is >7%. Ah, to be a Trapist Monk....
