Glad to see you defending us, Boris! I confess to being lax in my beer roving,
having settled on Pemaquid Ale and Shipyard Summer Ale pretty much to the
exclusion of others.

I see it's distributed in Maine, but by only one distributor. I'll see if I can
track it down. "Best in my entire life" is a pretty strong recomendation.

When stationed in Asmara, Eritrea, back in the early 70s, we often drank a
locally brewed Italian beer. Melotti, I think it was. Pretty good, as I recall.
We also frequently stopped during road trips for a big bottle of Tuborg, which,
I think, was Danish(?) Eritrea was where I learned to enjoy beer at
temperatures that wouldn't produce frostbite of the tonsils.
