Different strokes. Drinking light, relatively tasteless Coors where
there are some great micro-brews seems a dead waste to me. I don't
remember what I had last time I was waiting in Logan a couple of years
ago, but I know it wasn't Coors. And in Manchester airport, you can get
Old Brown Dog on tap - Woof Woof! I used to really enjoy a Newcastle
Brown Ale once in a while. The Old Brown Dog has spoiled me now, though.
