Nothing to do with citrus flavored beer, but I was at a sales meeting recently that was held in one of those very fancy restaurants where they normally only admit the 1%. We met in a room set up to look like a wine cellar (apparently that is the rage in these places, I've been in several now and that formula seems to prevail) and everybody was looking through the wine list to find the most expensive glass of wine that they could put onto the salesman's expense account.

So I asked the waiter for a Guinness, partly to show my personal disdain for their whole setup and partly because I wanted a Guinness. They didn't have it, or any other stouts, and only one porter in a can. Something from a local brewery and I didn't bother to write down the name because I'm not planning to be back in that neck of the woods again.

It was fun sitting there drinking a glass of brown stuff from a beer glass while everybody else pretended to know about wine. If they ever come out here to the sticks here I will show them my vineyard...
