AA's gonna need more Molson. You're right, JJ: he should switch to Sleeman's.

both are haram if Canadian beer has alcohol in it still

MFT: Hey, we're gonna have a priority fight here. It was I who suggested AA switch from Molson to fortified Port, not JJ. Let's give credit where credit is due!

My Frontier Thesis said...

Whoa-whoa-whoa. Let's just take a step back and look at this for a moment. I think JJ and I discussed the finer aspects of Sleeman's ale as compared to other Canadian brews back in Bozeman last Easter. Are you confusing Sleeman's ale with fortified port, AI?

Mr roT said...

You ever try Sleeman's, mft?

Tecumseh said...

Actually, I had no idea what Sleeman's was -- thanks for the tip. Now, those one-on-one discussions you guys had last summer in the Northern steppes don't really count when it comes to priority on this blog. As they say in Italy, verba volant, scripta manent.

I have finally ponied up the cash to try a Sleeman. Definitely superior to Molson.

Hmmmm, how would you know about the fermented mare's urine, exactly, JJ? You fessin' up to bein' in Khazakhstan's Running of the Jew?
Sleeman's is good, and far better than Molson. Molson, however, is better than Coors or Bud, and these in turn are better than Schlitz and Iron City, and these in turn are better than Taiwan Beer. There are many more circles to Beer Hell than you have travelled in, JJ.

And the deepest part of the pit must be drunk ice cold, huh?

Mr roT said...

I remember (vaguely) drinking a fair amount of Rckard's Red while up in Canada. Liked it then, but now I have better taste.

My Frontier Thesis said...

JJ, yeah, I've tried the Ale and Honey Brown Lager.

I think AI should go for the original dark, considering his inkling towards the darker brews.

I'd recommend staying away from any type of fermented urine, or urine in general.
